I have now changed the configuration of the OpenPrinting web server to use application/x-deb as mime type for Debian packages, by modifying /etc/mime.types and restarting Apache. Note that the OpenPrinting web server runs Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS. I have checked Natty and there /etc/mime.types has still application/x-debian-package. After the change and clearing the Firefox cache on the Natty client the packages are treated correctly.
But anyway, the Firefox problem should get fixed, and also /etc/mime.types in Ubuntu.
