in reply to File::MMagic bug?

Although I haven't tested this, I did take a quick look through the code, and at first glance, it appears you're right.

Can you let us know what the file is that causes the grief (hopefully some of us have it installed by default). Otherwise, can you put it up somewhere in binary format?

I'm in the pull request mood today. Even though this project doesn't seem to be on github, I'd take a crack at troubleshooting and write a patch if necessary.

    Hi stevieb, thanks for your quick answer

    Which file do you need? The "magic" one?

    I think my instance is not really relevant. The important fact is the first byte in the file is 0x0A (then 0x23 0x2d 0x2d ..., i.e. line 2 is a standard comment starting with a "hash" character).

    Since this is my first contact with the site, how can I attach this ~50k file to my post?
