MagicError: File 5.39 supports only version 16 magic files. #12

Closed cking closed 4 years ago

cking commented 4 years ago

In lots of applications I get the following error message when trying to open a file:

MagicError: File 5.39 supports only version 16 magic files. '/-tmp/.mime_detective_magic.mgc' is version 14

I am using latest Arch [with the xdg-utils replacer]. What am I doing wrong? If there is anything I can help or provide with additional help, I'd be happy to

@cking you're using an outdated version, just upgrade to the latest one and all your problems will disappear :airplane:

@cking I suggested upgrading because that error looks like one from the mime-detective dependency which handlr had until recent one or two versions.

What's the output of the following ?

which handlr
handlr --version
cking commented 4 years ago
❯ which handlr ; handlr --version
/usr/bin/handlr
handlr 0.4.3

@cking so the latest version is v0.4.5 :) Could you try reinstalling and see if that fixes your issue?

cking commented 4 years ago

i did that 3 times. 2 times reinstalling and one time uninstalling and then installing again. the 0.4.5 package installs 0.4.3 for me

@cking must be some issue with an AUR helper. Here's the package https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/handlr-bin

I manually downloaded the binary and verified that it outputs the correct version. image

I could suggest using the yay AUR helper.

If somehow that doesn't help either, you can try git-cloning https://aur.archlinux.org/handlr-bin.git and running makepkg -si
