Hi all!
Current in pacman we have python-magic from http://darwinsys.com/file/ with an unknown custom license. We have other implementation with MIT license made by ahupp [1]. The second one is available in pypi and is more advanced that the first one.
I have been checking the code of dependencies of python-magic and I can see that deepin-movie and diffoscope supports well ahupp version.
Why not replace python-magic with diffoscope version, as can see in AUR [2] this version is used for much more packages.
Greetings.
