Hi all,

Gentoo's file command is slightly deficient, it seems to not have a
magic number for .ogg:

alan@(protected) {}
\;
/home/alan/music/A/ABC/The Lexicon of Love/06 - The look of love (part
one).ogg: data

repeat 1313 times (every .ogg I have)


A fellow Ubuntu-using Linux-conspirator gets this:

$ file "Alabama 3 - Exile on Coldharbour Lane/Alabama 3 - Mao Tse Tung
Said.ogg"
Alabama 3 - Exile on Coldharbour Lane/Alabama 3 - Mao Tse Tung Said.ogg:
Ogg data, Vorbis audio, stereo, 44100 Hz, ~112001 bps, created by:
Xiph.Org libVorbis I (1.0)


How do I teach my Gentoo system the magic of .ogg?
