Thank. Will be on vacation for about 3 more days, and I'll fix it then (or maybe try to use nix-on-droid...)

[marius851000]

I'm back. Hope it is quickly fixed...

Check error seems to be an issue with the "file" depencies update to 5.40

[marius851000]

This patch should fix this issue : https://github.com/file/file/commit/9b0459afab309a82aa4e46f73a4e50dd641f3d39

[marius851000]

Applying this patch fixed the issue. Will open a PR.

[marius851000]

Merged in staging.
