Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gdesklets

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# apt-file search /usr/share/mime/globs2
beast: /usr/share/mime/globs2
gdesklets: /usr/share/mime/globs2
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# apt-file search /usr/share/mime/generic-icons
beast: /usr/share/mime/generic-icons
gdesklets: /usr/share/mime/generic-icons
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# apt-file search /usr/share/mime/icons
beast: /usr/share/mime/icons
gdesklets: /usr/share/mime/icons

The problem seems to be that both packages use update-mime-database
during build.  This should be disabled (or patched out) and update-mime-
database only run on the user's machine through maintainer scripts.

In addition note that gdesklets ships /usr/share/mime/treemagic and 
/usr/share/mime/types.
This should be due to gdesklets running shared-mime-info during build.

gdesklets is also running update-desktop-database during build, but
apparently this has not effect (but it would be better if disabled
obviously).
