If libmagic isn't installed then the guestfs_file_architecture API doesn't work. This means that inspection will always return <arch>unknown</arch> for every guest. This subtly breaks a few features. In particular it was reported that the virt-builder/virt-customize --install option did not work because the "unknown" architecture of the guest was not compatible with the host. libmagic is a small, widely available C library, so the easiest fix is just to make it mandatory.

This directory contains miscellaneous manual pages which don't fit elsewhere. Most libguestfs documentation is in manual pages. The source for those manual pages are POD files (*.pod), and they are normally located next to the source files they relate to (eg. guestfish documentation is in fish/guestfish.pod). All manual pages are available online at http://libguestfs.org/ The main API documentation is: http://libguestfs.org/guestfs.3.html
