Here's an example of a (possibly) useless log warning. I say useless because I don't know (how would I?) whether this was updated from version 0.30 or not.

I get these kinds of messages regularly. Sometimes, I say, "right. I did that last week, why is it telling me again?". 

How do others know if a warning applies after any system/world update? 

LOG: postinst

The database format has changed between 0.30 and 0.40.
You may need to update all your local databases and caches.
To do so, please run the following commands:
(for each user) $ update-mime-database ~/.local/share/mime/
(as root)       # update-mime-database /usr/local/share/mime/
