Description:
atril (mate-document-viewer) is unable to open a zip comic book (.cbz) file with the optional p7zip installed.
evince (currently version 3.10.3-1) is able to successfully open and view the .cbz files.
This bug does not affect rar(.cbr) tar(.cbt) or 7z(.cb7) comic book files

Error given is:

While application/zip is technically correct the mime type of .cbz files is listed as application/x-cbz in /usr/share/mime/packages/freedesktop.org.xml and /usr/lib/atril/3/backends/comicsdocument.atril-backend

Hi,

MATE 1.8 is now available. Please download the three sample .cbz files below and test again using Atril 1.8.0-1.

* http://www.copperwood.com/pub/AlmaTademaPortfolio.cbz
* http://www.junkbox.com/kites/Hi%20Flier%20Kite%20Catalog%201977.cbz
* http://www.copperwood.com/pub/Elf%20Receiver%20Radio-Craft%20August%201936.cbz

Using the .cbz file above I am unable to reproduce the issue you describe as all 3 files open with Atril. Can you please update to MATE 1.8, it is in [community], and re-test using the sample .cbz files linked above?

Regards, Martin.
