Apparently Ethereal understands this and configures the mimetype during

If I have installed wireshark without deinstalling Ethereal then .pcap files are still associated with Ethereal.
After I have deinstalled Ethereal and then installed 0.99.1pre1 then .pcap files are associated with Wireshark
My guess is that the Ethereal/Wireshark installer checks if there already is another program associated with the
filetype.
I have seen similar behavior where I have another program associated with .cap-files or similar.
