If XDG_DATA_HOME= "$username/.local/share", then it seems ~/.local/share/applications && ~/.local/share/mime/packages will likely exist. These locations represent 'User mode', and allow the user to customize various elements of the desktop environment ...ie; icons. In that case, the user can change/customize settings, as an extension of the System mode settings....ie; if the file ~/.local/share/mime/packages/amiberry.xml exists, and contains the snippet;
<mime-type type="application/x-amiga--disk-image">
<comment>Amiga disk image</comment>
<generic-icon name="media-floppy"/>
<glob pattern="*.adf"/>
</mime-type>
Then the mime-type /usr/share/mime/packages/amiberry.xml is still used, but is overridden by ~/.local/share/mime/packages/amiberry.xml (User mode) to provide a different icon for the mime-type defined by System mode.
If XDG_DATA_HOME is unset/unused (Debian, Ubuntu)...then XDG_DATA_DIRS is used instead, and so everything has to be properly covered by /usr/share/mime/packages/amiberry.xml in this case...
