uncertain about mimetype desktop files

Hi,

I discovered in x-tex-pk.desktop mimetype the entry:

	Patterns=*pk;*PK;

The consequence is that every file with a name pk is a packed font :-(
I guess this should be *.pk and *.PK ?

Maybe related to this in  x-tex-gf.desktop the entry:

	Patterns=*.*gf;*.*GF;

This is very unusual because of the * in the extention. 

I also found some files without any Pattern:
x-awk.desktop
x-mswrite.desktop
x-sharedlib.desktop
x-sqlite2.desktop
x-sqlite3.desktop

What is the reason for this?

Does KDE get the mimetypes from somewhere else so that this should be fixed 
somewhere upstream?

For me it is not obvious what is correct here, so can anyone please comment or 
simply fix it in case it is wrong?

Jens
