I didn't miss it, but I did not realize that conflicts with the "keep it,
don't package it" idea of David.

It does seem like a waste of resources to package an entire kdesupport just
for the modified mimelib, though. I say:

- put unmodified stuff in kdesupport and don't package it
- put modified stuff elsewhere (mimelib in kdenetwork)

This provides maximum convenience and it allows for kdesupport not to be
packaged.
