--- Begin Message ---Package: file Version: 1:5.35-2 Severity: wishlist I get the following error: $ file -e foo /dev/null Usage: file [-bcCdEhikLlNnprsvzZ0] [--apple] [--extension] [--mime-encoding] [--mime-type] [-e <testname>] [-F <separator>] [-f <namefile>] [-m <magicfiles>] [-P <parameter=value>] <file> ... file -C [-m <magicfiles>] file [--help] because testname foo does not exist. This should silently be ignored, so that if the testname is added in a later version, one can unconditionally use "file -e foo" on all machines. As an example, "file -e json" works in Debian/unstable, but not in stretch. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/12 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=POSIX (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages file depends on: ii libc6 2.28-7 ii libmagic1 1:5.35-2 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.11.dfsg-1 file recommends no packages. file suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
