cygport and update-{desktop,mime}-database

Cygport sometimes add lines to postinstall scripts to call 
update-desktop-database and update-mime-database.  Would it be 
reasonable for the postinstall script to first check for the existence 
of those programs?  That would prevent users from seeing mysterious 
error messages in their setup logs.
