There are four new mimetype files that need to be installed to the system,
and probably added to your local copy of
kdelibs/mimetypes/application/Makefile.in as well.  They are:
kdelibs/mimetypes/application/x-lzma.desktop
kdelibs/mimetypes/application/x-tlz.desktop
kdelibs/mimetypes/application/x-txz.desktop
kdelibs/mimetypes/application/x-xz.desktop
