Comment 17 for bug 248619

I have reproduced the file misidentification of the Postscript file as
an Erlang JAM file with the versions in intrepid, 4.24-4, and jaunty,
4.26-2ubuntu3, and have confirmed that the versions in
intrepid-proposed, 4.24-4ubuntu1, and jaunty-proposed, 4.26-2ubuntu4,
correctly identifies it as a Postscript file. Again, I am unable to
reproduce the printing issue as before.

I also again attempted to look for regressions by comparing the output
of wholesale file output. In the intrepid version, the only change was
again some changelogs that had been mis-identified as before, and
curiously /var/log/syslog, which went from 'ASCII text' to 'ASCII Pascal
program text'. However, there was a DHCP lease renewal that occurred
between the two runs reported in /var/log/syslog which may have thrown
things off. Running both versions against the current contents result in
both reporting it to be 'ASCII English text'. So I don't believe there
any regressions here.

I also performed a similar check against the jaunty versions, with 1.5 million files on a live system. This had several files that the original version incorrectly identified as Erlang JAM files that were correctly identified by the version in jaunty-proposed. No new mis-identitifications were introduced by the package upgrade.

Based on this, I believe these are okay to release, and am marking verification-done. Thanks.
