I think the culprit may be /usr/share/mime/packages/kde.xml, which
contains both of these file types, along with the message:

<!--
Notes:
- the mime types in this file are valid with the version 0.30 of the
  shared-mime-info package.
- the "fdo #xxxxx" are the wish in the freedesktop.org bug database to include
  the mime type there.
-->

I hope this is useful; I'm also seeing this error message.  (It
doesn't detract from the sensible request to know the source of the
error in the error message, though.)

Best wishes,

   Julian
