The theory is that all mime types needed by KDE should be in kdelibs. Of 
course, as KOffice supports 2 versions of KDE it is a little difficult, 
therefore koffice/mimetypes/kde31 was created to add the missing mime types 
existing in KDE 3.2 but not in KDE 3.1. (The mime icon situation is perhaps 
even uglier in koffice/mimetypes/kde31 as for example the OO ones are using 
the same (non-KDE) icons as OO, which was changed in KDE 3.2 to use KDE 
icons.)
