The 'touch' should be inconditional and outside of the 'if' block.
E.g. when we have a transaction like


1. UPDATE new1
2. UPDATE old
3. UPDATE new0
4. ERASE new0
5. ERASE old
6. ERASE new1
7. %posttrans


where newX have the scriptlet above and 'old' has a legacy scriptlet
which executes 'gtk-update-icon-cache' everytime.  Then, 'old' will
update the cache in step 5 and %posttrans will be a noop.  Changes in
step 6 will be ignored and system has the cache from step 5.
