Dear Maintainer,
Using libmagic's buffer based MIME type detection via any of the python
wrappers (file-magic or python-magic) fails to properly recognize a
simple (non empty) ZIP file.
Here is a python snippet:
--
import magic
with open('test.zip', 'rb') as f:
d = f.read()
print(magic.detect_from_content(d).mime_type) # fails: application
octet-stream
f.seek(0)
print(magic.detect_from_fobj(f).mime_type) # works: application/zip
--
Building & linking the "files" project from the repo, both the masterc
branch and the FILE5_45 tag do fix the issue.
