Error in file


I'm running current and file command is not working.

Code:
 # file anx_A.txt 
/etc/file/magic/gnome-keyring, 11: Warning: Printf format `h' is not valid for type `byte' in description `, crypto type %hhu (unknown)'
/etc/file/magic/gnome-keyring, 13: Warning: Printf format `h' is not valid for type `byte' in description `, hash type %hhu (unknown)'
file: could not find any valid magic files!
I ran recompile_magic.mgc.sh but if also fails with identical message.

The changelog refers that:


a/file-5.22-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
Include the flat files in the package again.
Compile /etc/file/magic.mgc from the flat files upon installation,
and include a script in /etc/file/ to recompile from the flat files
to handle any local additions.


Am I missing something?

/etc/file/magic/gnome-keyring is not part of any Slackware package. Move it to some temporary location and try again.
