Dear Markus,
Check the style file in (assuming a default install location)
/usr/local/lib/magic/sys/mos.24bit.dstyle. If it matches
the output printed by magic that you reported:
0 0x7f 0 0x00 solid 0 -no_color_at_all
then there is clearly an error here; in my (installed) style
file, the '-' is a separate argument, separated from the
style name with whitespace (a "tab" character):
0 0x7f 0 0x00 solid 0 - no_color_at_all
The whitespace is either missing from the file, or being
deleted when the line is read in. Since these files were
copied verbatim from the source to the install directory,
it is difficult to understand how it changed in the process.
You can probably fix the problem by either adding the space
to each line in the file, if it is not there, or else changing
the "tab" character to spaces, if it is.
It would be useful to know the root cause of the error, so
please report back to me what does or does not work.
Regards,
Tim
