Bug#856570: apache2: does not send any Content-Type for plaintext files

I believe this system to be horridly flawed anyway… I mean, where
should Apache know the correct MIME type from?

A system based on a registry (mapping files to MIME types in a
database; entry is automatic with a guessed type if none exists
but can be overridden) is better.

Yes… well, almost. I had to quote the MIME type for it to work.

This works now:

[…]
		<Directory /var/lib/footool>
			Options FollowSymLinks
			Require all granted
			<FilesMatch "^[^\.]+$">
				ForceType "text/plain; charset=UTF-8"
			</FilesMatch>
		</Directory>
[…]

I am *not* happy with this solution (but thank you anyway) because
globbing like this could be fragile, but at least it works, somewhat,
now. I still consider this a bug in the webserver.
