22 This doesn't exist here.

26 This is done by the ebuild, you need to do it for /usr/local/share/mime
27 and it should be done as root.

31 This should be ~/.local/share/mime/ and needs to be run by each user.

33 http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=288312 contains the details, and
34 the elog from emerging shared-mime-info also covers the details now,
35 although it didn't when the current version was first added to portage.
