This doesn't say in what file the error occurs; it does give a lot of:

 File '/usr/share/applications/balsa.desktop' lacks MimeType key

messages, though.

An strace suggests it is a file not in Debian (strace edited to remove
precise name of file):

31998 stat64("/usr/share/applications/foo.desktop", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, 
st_size=18, ...}) = 0
31998 open("/usr/share/applications/foo.desktop", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 4
31998 fstat64(4, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=18, ...}) = 0
31998 read(4, "[Desktop 
Entry]\nEncoding=UTF-8\nName=Foo\nComment=Bar\nComment[fr]=Toto\nCommen
31998 getpid()                          = 31998
31998 write(2, "\n** (process:31998): CRITICAL **: file eggdesktopentries.c: 
line 2223 (egg_desktop_entries_add_group): assertio
31998 getpid()                          = 31998
31998 write(2, "\n** (process:31998): CRITICAL **: file eggdesktopentries.c: 
line 2223 (egg_desktop_entries_add_group): assertio
31998 getpid()                          = 31998
31998 write(2, "\n** (process:31998): CRITICAL **: file eggdesktopentries.c: 
line 2223 (egg_desktop_entries_add_group): assertio
31998 read(4, "", 1024)                 = 0
31998 close(4)                          = 0

So, the only thing left from this bug report of relevance to Debian is
"should not cry wolf and say 'critical'".
