meld @1.8.4: update mime and desktop databases post-activation

[cooljeanius (Eric Gallager)]

meld prints the following messages during its destroot:

make[1]: Leaving directory `/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_textproc_meld/meld/work/meld-1.8.4/help'
*** MIME database not updated.  After (un)install, run this:
***   update-mime-database /opt/local/share/mime
*** Desktop database not updated.  After (un)install, run this:
***   update-desktop-database /opt/local/share/applications
make: Leaving directory `/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_textproc_meld/meld/work/meld-1.8.4'

However, it never appears to do either of these during its post-activation step, as is the norm for ports that do these things. Also, it does not print a message mentioning this, but as it appears to install scrollkeeper docs as well, it could also use a call to scrollkeeper-update, leading to its post-activate step looking like this:

post-activate {
    system "${prefix}/bin/scrollkeeper-update"
    system "${prefix}/bin/update-desktop-database ${prefix}/share/applications"
    system "${prefix}/bin/update-mime-database ${prefix}/share/mime"
}

Fixed in r122773 along with other updates.

Note the need to for the following additional commands in post-activate (both hicolor and HighContrast icons are installed) and the additional dependencies needed to make sure the post-activate commands are available (desktop-file-utils, rarian, shared-mime-info, gtk2).

    system "${prefix}/bin/gtk-update-icon-cache -f -t ${prefix}/share/icons/hicolor"
    system "${prefix}/bin/gtk-update-icon-cache -f -t ${prefix}/share/icons/HighContrast"

OK, I was wondering if those might be needed as well, but I could not tell for sure, so I left them out to be safe. Anyways, thanks for the update!
