Package: libmagic1 Version: 5.04-5 Some of the messages describing MS-DOS executables are formatted incorrectly, using "\b" (the "don't add whitespace before this message" code) in the wrong place so that files will be described, for example, like this:
doom-1.9u/doom.exe: MS-DOS executable ,\b LE for MS-DOS, DOS4GW DOS extender (embedded) doom2-1.9/doom2.exe: MS-DOS executable ,\b LE for MS-DOS, DOS4GW DOS extender (embedded) heretic-1.0/heretic.exe: MS-DOS executable ,\b LE for MS-DOS, DOS4GW DOS extender (embedded) Enclosed is a patch which fixes these mistakes so that files will be described as follows: doom-1.9u/doom.exe: MS-DOS executable, LE for MS-DOS, DOS4GW DOS extender (embedded) doom2-1.9/doom2.exe: MS-DOS executable, LE for MS-DOS, DOS4GW DOS extender (embedded) heretic-1.0/heretic.exe: MS-DOS executable, LE for MS-DOS, DOS4GW DOS extender (embedded)
