Comment # 3 on bug 928673 from Volker Kuhlmann

Using file may not be so simple:

# file /boot/zImage-3.19.3-1-default
/boot/zImage-3.19.3-1-default: Linux kernel ARM boot executable zImage
(little-endian)
# file -v
file-5.19

Any reason not to use just the file name (or link name, don't de-reference)?
