Cannot compile libmagic database %s: %s

Description

The file type recognition engine uses a file containing patterns for matching file contents. The database can exist in a textual source form or as a binary compiled file (with suffix .mgc). The compiled database is automatically created by a proxy. If database compilation fails, the source form will be used instead, which is slower.
