Follow-up Comment #2, bug #44404 (project octave):

On comment #1 Rik said:
> The usual thing would be to add a clean-local rule that removed the extra
files. But, we don't want to remove someone's mimeinfo.cache if it contains
other entries besides just Octave.

Yes, but such rule could remove the cache file and then rebuild it again
(without the Octave desktop files).

rather than with the individual software package?

updating ramdisks, etc.

I do not know. I will try to ask to the freedesktop.org people.
