Thanks Olivier to look at this pb.
I've just locally rebuilt file-5.11 and your new file-5.12-5.
It's better, but file-5.12-5 still mis-detects some script files; I can
see that some Perl or shell scripts are reported as 'assembler source
text' with 5.12-5.
eg.
file -v; file /usr/bin/autoconf /usr/bin/automake /usr/bin/iurt
file-5.11
magic file from /usr/share/misc/magic
/usr/bin/autoconf: POSIX shell script, ASCII text executable
/usr/bin/automake: Perl script, ASCII text executable
/usr/bin/iurt: Perl script, ISO-8859 text executable, with very long
lines
file -v; file /usr/bin/autoconf /usr/bin/automake /usr/bin/iurt
file-5.12
magic file from /usr/share/misc/magic
/usr/bin/autoconf: POSIX shell script, ASCII text executable
/usr/bin/automake: assembler source text
/usr/bin/iurt: assembler source text
It's very annoying because /usr/bin/file is used by find-requires and
find-provides, and if we do the mass rebuild with a broken
/usr/bin/file, we will build some rpms with incorrect provides and requires.
regards,
Luc
