By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Vince 2016-10-12 12:53:01 CDT 
Konqueror fails to detect file type using libmagic.so.1.0.0 from versions of file > 5.22.  No error messages are issued, just incorrect detection of common file types as Unknown.  Failed versions of file tested: 5.25, 5.28.  Other users of library that do not seem to be affected: "file" command itself, KDE Konqueror 4.14.24.

Workaround: sticking with file-5.22.

All software was compiled on a Gentoo system.
