That bug has described on https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/desktop-file-utils/+bug/43977

"Cannot install many packeges because post install / configure scripts would execute "update-desktop-database -q" which however always segfaults. The only information I was able to get:

Starting program: /usr/bin/update-desktop-database -q

eggdesktopentries.c is not used any more and the second part of the patch is already in CVS (and in 0.11, I believe). Is it okay to close the bug?
