Dear Maintainer,
The function MagicMimetype always fails because the `command -v file` isn't
executed inside a shell (rather, perl searches for the "command" binary, and
fails to find it).
Attached is a patch that fixes this.

whether this package needs to be updated or the dictionary package(s).

This is a somewhat obscure feature (and not really documented), so I doubt
it breaks many systems, and so I'm not sure how urgent this is to be
backported.
