Hi jerry,

Could you tell us about that file(1).  I found a site for Mageia
packages, but it didn't have one called `file' so I wasn't sure what
package contained the command, and where it got the source from, what
version, etc.

Here, with Arch Linux's file 5.31-1 package, I get

    $ file --brief --dereference --mime-type test/mhbuild/nulls
    application/octet-stream
    $ file --version
    file-5.31
    magic file from /usr/share/file/misc/magic
    $
