Title:
  ubuntu-standard shouldn't depend on transitional mime-support package

Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  $ apt show mime-support
   This is a transitional package. It will be possible to remove it
   safely once its dependency chain has adjusted to depend on mailcap
   or media-types directly.

  I didn't update this dependency because I don't know if we need
  mailcap as an ubuntu-standard Depends or not. I believe we do want
  media-types.
