Description Andre Robatino 2009-11-05 11:48:16 UTC 
Description of problem:
The file command doesn't recognize the magic numbers in either deltaisos or rpm-only deltarpms, seeing these files only as "data".  See

https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2009-November/msg00259.html

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
file-5.03-9.fc12

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Create either a deltaiso with the makedeltaiso command, or an rpm-only deltarpm with the makedeltarpm command and the -r option.
2.  Run the file command on resulting file.
  
Actual results:
File is recognized only as "data".

Expected results:
Should recognize the magic numbers.
