update-mime-database runs for 40 seconds
by EdGr from LinuxQuestions.org on (#53CC5)
With slackware64-current on a computer with hard disks, I am seeing 40 seconds of disk activity on every boot coming from update-mime-database.
The disk activity makes starting up X rather slow. Moreover, the update is unnecessary.
As a workaround, I have removed execute permission. A permanent solution would be to make update-mime-database a cron job.
