Or just call it update-desktop-caches and stay a separate script, since (as you already pointed out) it needs to run at different occasions anyway? > Note that update-desktop-database is probably not called by packaging > managers or application's Makefiles when they don't handle mime-types, > so this would be something that would need to be announced, and followed > by distributions. At least it wouldn't cause any regression if it isn't called by package managers; it just wouldn't use caching, so this might be acceptable?
