file will strip leading zeroes when displaying UUIDs. Compare the output of
these commands on the same file system:
nemi:/etc# tune2fs -l /dev/sda1|grep UUID
Filesystem UUID: 0b7e7b52-e5cd-49b8-a304-2bc5f9b7f2b5
nemi:/etc# file -s /dev/sda1
/dev/sda1: Linux rev 1.0 ext2 filesystem data (mounted or unclean),
UUID=b7e7b52-e5cd-49b8-a304-2bc5f9b7f2b5
The UUID reported by file will cause mounting problems if copied to
/etc/fstab.
The fix is simple. I'm attaching a patch against /usr/share/misc/magic
