I suggest that we wait for the Metro proposal and see how that pans out. It is likely
that Magic will either be renamed or that the .metro directory is used instead. I will
keep the issue open.

Here is an overview of the issue:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: TOOLS-3
Summary: Magic eliminates unix file command
Type: Bug
Status: Resolved
Priority: Critical
Resolution: WON'T FIX
Project: Metro Tools
Components:
MAGIC
Assignee: Niclas Hedhman
Reporter: Joerg Schaible

Environment: Unix, Cygwin
Description:
Magic creates a .magic directory in the home directory of an user. Unfortunately this
breaks the unix file command. As long as this directory exists "file" cannot find its
magic files and is no longer able to determin the type of arbitrary files for that
particular user. Renaming or removing the .magic directory makes file work again:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] joehni $ file relnote.pdf
file: could not find any magic files!
[EMAIL PROTECTED] joehni $ mv .magic .magic-apache
[EMAIL PROTECTED] joehni $ file relnote.pdf
relnote.pdf: PDF document, version 1.3
Please rename this default directory!
