Please, no. This is extra work and complexity for something that
doesn't *do* anything at all (see my previous message).

Adding this won't hurt the SlackBuild (it will still work), but it
will act as a red herring, a thing that will confuse users and cause
them to think it's somehow important, and waste their time trying to
decide what option to choose.

In reality both options are the same: nothing happens to
/usr/share/mime/mime.cache at all, either way.
