Ive got the same problem in a Lucid instalation - until now without
solution:
root@ligp:~# strace -f update-mime-database.real /usr/share/mime/
execve("/usr/bin/update-mime-database.real", ["update-mime-database.real",
"/usr/share/mime/"], [/* 27 vars */]) = 0
brk(0)
Same problem Leonardo Silva has, combined with failure with package
gconf2. 55 packages cannot be configured because of that.

What version of Ubuntu do you use? Could you try to figure if the crash
is triggered by a corrupted desktop?

Looks like the problem was that a file in /usr/share/mime was
malformatted. Nevermind. Sorry about that.

Thanks for your bug. Was that file shipped by an Ubuntu package or a
