I have to raise this up here, because it gets more and more common to run dh_desktop if the package contains a .desktop file. Everything dh_desktop does is, that it adds an update-desktop-database call to the maintainer scripts in _every_ case. Unfortunately this is only useful, if the .desktop file contains a MimeType field. In every other case, running update-desktop-database just rebuilds the existing database without the necessity to do this. Because it wasts time and resources I hereby request to check all .desktop files in /usr/share/applications for the MimeType field, before the maintainer-script code for update-desktop-database is added. If I find some time, I will provide a patch.
