Hi there,
while finally preparing an answer I noticed somebody unblocked the
file package for jessie without further discussion. Whoever pulled the
strings, thanks a lot. And I hope this will not end in regressions or
other annoyances.
Just one more thing:

I'd like to learn more about that but my search was unsuccessful for
lack of proper search term. Could you provide a pointer, bug# or the
like?
Thanks again.
