FWIW, I have a recently installed F10 and it contains....untouched by me.

/etc/cups/mime.convs

[egreshko at f10 cups]$ grep raw mime.convs
# without the -oraw option.
#application/octet-stream       application/vnd.cups-raw        0       -

and

/etc/cups/mime.types

[egreshko at f10 cups]$ grep octet-stream mime.types
application/octet-stream

So, one is line is commented and one is uncommented...  The link
provided indicates both need to be uncommented but only in so far as to
achieve the desired results.   My interpretation of the link doesn't
lead me to conclude *how* the files are shipped or even if the author is
intending to imply how the files are shipped.

Either way, it doesn't really matter does it?  I mean the goal here is
to get things to work the way Brian needs/expects.
