It's most likely Acrobat Reader that f#$#$#d up here.  It mucks with system 
copies of mimetypes, etc... 

My guess is that kdegraphics update simply replaced the muck'd system copies 
with known good ones.

Now, opening pdf's from where is causing problems?  Say, opening in 
nautilus, a webbrowser, what?
