Well, dpkg will complain about a _modified_ conffile when the version in
the package changed and the version on disk is not the same as the old
version (IOW, contains local changes). However, /etc/magic contains the
same 110 bytes for a number of years now (it’s empty with a comment).

Your /etc/magic is quite large, much larger even than the ‘official’
magic database provided in the package. I’m afraid I cannot tell which
entries trigger the warnings.
