Sounds like shared-mime-info was missing as an entry in the original dep file. I am not on my home machine to test the origial dep file when used with "base norestore", but I am curious if the same behavior would be seen.
And I had added libldap to the curl dep file before conversion, it was not a result of conversion. I had forgot to take it out after disabling ldap.
