Hi,
Upstream file 5.12 looks quite broken :-/
They updated the 5.12 release tarball (!) on the FTP site with a
collection of fixes, that's quite a bad practice...
See this thread about your issue:
<A HREF="http://mx.gw.com/pipermail/file/2013/001019.html">http://mx.gw.com/pipermail/file/2013/001019.html</A>
It should be fixed in 5.12-5.mga
Cheers
