Per
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ScriptletSnippets
in the desktop-database and mimeinfo sections says to add
Requires(post): desktop-file-utils
Requires(postun): desktop-file-utils
and
Requires(post): shared-mime-info
Requires(postun): shared-mime-info
respectively, but the "GTK+ icon cache" section says (rightfully) "Note 
that no dependencies should be added for this".  Couldn't the same 
argument for this latter statement be applied to both desktop-database 
and mimeinfo as well?

Shouldn't desktop-file-utils and shared-mime-info be Req'd (only) by the 
desktop environments that use/require them (AFAIK, only gnome at the 
moment).
