True. Notice from
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/ScriptletSnippets that Fedora
also uses touch, not sure if it's really needed by something.
Also, it's my understanding that the %postrans thing applies also to
%desktop_database_post* and %mime_database_post*, but Fedora uses
%post in this case (and removes the "if [ $1 -eq 0 ]" check from
%postun). No idea why...
