Package: desktop-file-utils
Version: 0.10-1
The postinst calls update-desktop-database, which
creates /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache. When the package is
purged, this file is left behind as cruft on the filesystem. It would
make sense to remove it when the package is removed (or maybe only when
purged?).

This bug was actually fixed in 0.15-2:

[ Loic Minier ]
* Depend on ${misc:Depends}.
* Do not hardcode the path to update-desktop-database in postinst.
[ Josselin Mouette ]
* Add myself to uploaders.
* postrm: remove created caches upon removal.
* triggers: register interest in /usr/share/applications.
* postinst: run update-desktop-database when triggered.
* Standards version is 3.8.1.
* Remove defaults.list stuff, it’s all in gnome-session now.
* copyright: refer to versioned GPL.
