Description: On installation of package xbmc I get an "error: command failed to execute correctly" message.

I think, the reason for this message is the post_install routine. On my system the package desktop-file-utils, which includes usr/bin/update-desktop-database, is not installed. post_install doesn't return 0 and so pacman prints this error-message.


Additional info:
* xbmc-10.0-2


Steps to reproduce:

Archlinux installation without package desktop-file-utils.
