Whoa, that's weird. Okay, one more edit to shared-mime-info.info to
try to diagnose this:

PostInstScript: <<
 set -x
 . %p/bin/init.sh
 %p/bin/update-mime-database %p/share/mime
<<

then rebuild and reinstall. Note that the output may be about 150
lines or so...you can redirect it to a file:
  fink reinstall shared-mime-info > out.txt 2>&1
and either starting a tracker item on SourceForge or placing it on a
webserver somewhere so we don't flood people's mailboxes.
