Nick Burch reopened TIKA-289:
-----------------------------
I've just checked, and there are actually a handful of mime types defined in
the file magic which we don't have, doh! Let's add those few in, then close
Also, I wonder if we should add a reference to the file magic (probably the
[github version|https://github.com/file/file/tree/master/magic/Magdir]) to the
detection or similar docs, to point new people to it as a possible source of
suitably licensed magics if they can't otherwise find some?
> Add magic byte patterns from file(1)

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: mime
> Reporter: Jukka Zitting
> Priority: Minor

> As discussed in TIKA-285, the file(1) command comes with a pretty
> comprehensive set of magic byte patterns. It would be nice to get those
> patterns included also in Tika.
