Every time I emerge and enter installation I get

* QA Notice: .desktop files with MimeType= were found installed
* but desktop mimeinfo cache has not been updated:
* /usr/share/applications/firefox-bin.desktop
* Please make sure to call xdg_desktop_database_update()
* in pkg_postinst() and pkg_postrm() phases of appropriate pkgs.
* QA Notice: new icons were found installed but icon cache
* has not been updated:
* /usr/share/icons/hicolor/16x16/apps/firefox-bin.png
* /usr/share/icons/hicolor/symbolic/apps/firefox-bin-symbolic.svg
* /usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps/firefox-bin.png
* /usr/share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps/firefox-bin.png
* /usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/apps/firefox-bin.png
* /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/firefox-bin.png
* Please make sure to call xdg_icon_cache_update()
* in pkg_postinst() and pkg_postrm() phases of appropriate pkgs.

I have run
update-desktop-database /usr/share/applications && update-mime-database /usr/share/mime
with no effect.

Also
cluros /home/patrick # update-desktop-database /usr/share/applications/firefox-bin.desktop
The databases in [/usr/share/applications/firefox-bin.desktop] could not be updated.

This is a new Gentoo install. Maybe I did something wrong.

It happens with every program, and always complains about Firefox.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Indeed, I did do something careless. I had some trouble setting the clock and some files were dated in the future.

The solution was to
touch /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/firefox-bin.png
for all the files that generated complaints.
