I was getting lots of "/usr/sbin/install-mime: file not found" errors. It
seemed to me that it was running xanim's postinst.

Maybe this bug should be reassigned to install-mime, because several other
packages that I upgraded at the same time complained about the same thing.

Actually, I was also getting some errors about "/usr/sbin/install-info:
file not found". I was upgrading perl at the time as well. Maybe perl
wasn't available at that point?

Ok, I don't think this is the fault of xanim. It's perl or install-mime.
Since I didn't get a close look at the error messages, I guess we'll have
to wait until someone else encounters the problem.
