update-desktop-database processes desktop files under $XDG_DATA_DIRS/applications
and writes cache to $XDG_DATA_DIRS/applications/mimeinfo.cache.

share/mime/* is handled by USE=shared-mime-info, and it's already in x11/kdelibs4.
The problem is that kdelibs provides some non-standard mime types and this leads to leftovers.
