-libmagic 5.47 contains a regression where ELF files are identified as `ELF` instead of `ELF ` (with trailing space), which breaks OFRAK's ELF identification. Install libmagic 5.46 via a custom Homebrew tap:

-```bash
-brew install cmake
-curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/b8292ac3475e57ca407db18dfeb131cc51116da2/Formula/lib/libmagic.rb

 - Remove test dependencies that are already in the global `requirements-dev.txt` ([#695](https://github.com/redballoonsecurity/ofrak/pull/695))
 
 ### Fixed
+- Remove libmagic 5.46 pin as the pinned manifest is not compatible with latest brew and libmagic 5.48 fixes the original regression ([#755](https://github.com/redballoonsecurity/ofrak/pull/755))
 - Fix thread-unsafe `os.chdir` in `ZipPacker` by passing `cwd` to subprocess ([#721](https://github.com/redballoonsecurity/ofrak/pull/721))
 - Pin libmagic to 5.46 on macOS CI builds to work around a regression in 5.47 that breaks ELF identification; update documentation to reflect the libmagic 5.46 requirement ([#723](https://github.com/redballoonsecurity/ofrak/pull/723))
 - Bump `aiohttp` to >=3.13.3 to address CVE-2025-69223 ([#693](https://github.com/redballoonsecurity/ofrak/pull/693))
