The shared-mime info stuff is always located in /usr/share/mime, also
the location of the icons is the same for all packages but the suse one
and all packages expect the .desktop launchers to reside in
/use/share/applications - so it's not that bad :).

This is what http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=46530 is about.

One advantage would be slightly reduced testing effort, since you only
have on package containing shared mime info data.

However I am almost convinced that we should better fix i46530 and leave
the package structure as it is now. We still could start sharing common
parts of the spec files.
