            Bug ID: 291017
           Summary: ports-mgmt/portlint: false fatal error for .desktop
                    files which don't have a MimeType entry
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)

for example when using portlint on x11/autorandr it says:

FATAL: PLIST_FILES: this port installs .desktop files. please add
`desktop-file-utils` to USES.

while desktop-file-utils should only be added if the .desktop file contains a
MimeType entry. As portlint doesn't check the .desktop file, that should be at
most a warning.
