Summary | 0000634: .Xresources file mistakenly identified as image/x-xcursor | ||||
Description | .Xresources is a plain text file, but file mistakenly identifies it as an image. The previous version of file did not have this issue. | ||||
Steps To Reproduce | 1. Download the attached `.Xresources` file. 2. Run `file -b --mime-type .Xresources` and see that the output is `image/x-xcursor`. | ||||
Additional Information | Adding a comment to the top of the file fixes the issue. It seems like the issue is caused by the first 4 bytes of the attached file being Xcur, which causes file to misidentify it as an image instead of a plain text file. | ||||
