Yes, also look at the package "shared-mime-info":
Description: FreeDesktop.org shared MIME database and spec
 This is the shared MIME-info database from the X Desktop Group. It is
 required by any program complying to the Shared MIME-Info Database
 spec, which is also included in this package.  .  At this time, only
 ROX uses this database. GNOME and KDE are expected to follow soon,
 and hopefully others too.

cheers
