Bug Description

Many mkv files apparently have mimetype "video/x-mkv" and not "video/x-matroska". To solve this a line is needed under the <mimetype-contenttype> stanza:

<treat mimetype="video/x-mkv" as="mkv"/>

By having this line in the default stanza it will great end confusion on why some cannot play many mkv files through mediatomb.

  * Merge from debian unstable, Ubuntu remaining changes:
    - Add OR depends on abrowser.
  * Add glibc-2.10_fix.patch patch to prevent FTBFS with glibc-2.10.
  * debian/config.xml.dist: Allow playing the mkv files that haven't

mediatomb (0.12.0~svn2018-4) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Andreas Henriksson ]
  * debian/mediatomb-daemon.postinst:
    avoid trying (and failing!) to migrate database and purge rc.d scripts
    on clean installs, only do it on upgrades.
    (Also make sure the db file exists before trying to copy it for extra
     safety.)
    Thanks goes to all the people who commented on the bug! (Closes: #527566)

  [ Andres Mejia ]
  * Fix wrong namespace used for service-id attribute. (Closes: #535255)
  * Use patch instead of running autotools to generate changes to build
    system.
  * Ensure configure and other autotools generated scripts are
    executable.
  * Update packaging to take advantage of new features in debhelper 7.
  * Update override for watch file.
  * Add ${misc:Depends} for Depends field in binary packages.
  * Update Build-Depends for debhelper to 7 and quilt to 0.46-7.
  * Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.2.
  * Remove Build-Depends of automake since it's no longer needed.
  * Make some cosmetic changes to debian/control.
