There are two glitches, you got mails in private about these.
Doing a first round of tests showed regressions so far.

Hence, here is a preliminary packaging of python-magic for Debian:

  https://www.in-ulm.de/~cbiedl/debian/python-magic/python-magic_0.4.15-1~exp1.dsc

Debianites, please give it a try.

About the deprecation warning: I figured out right now (at least for
Debian) it would mostly scare users. Once Christos acknowledges your
work (hopefully) and deprecates the [file] python-magic implementation,
it's about time to alert authors of programs that use python-magic but
no earlier.

Therefore I created a switch that mutes that warning unless a
PYTHONMAGIC_WARN_DEPRECATED environment variable is set, patch below.
Using this switch, users can already test whether a particular
application needs an adjustment for the [pypi] API.

At least in Debian, I expect this transition to take two years anyway.

Cheers,

    Christoph
