apparently, the newer version of "file", when asked about the mime type of an ISO image, reports:
application/octet-stream when, from what i read, it should (and used to) report: application/x-iso9660-image the above unexpected(?) behaviour comes with file-5.37, and it's been seen in the wild: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/file/+bug/1763570 is this a known issue? i checked bugzilla but didn't find anything, and this change in behaviour is messing with some install scripts which use "file" to verify that something is a valid ISO image by looking for the string "x-iso9660-image". thoughts? others certainly seem to think this is a bug. rday
