Can you provide a link to Dreamhost's page that describes the change necessary to restore File Info support? |

In whatever version of PHP you’re using you need to alter the automated Dreamhost code in the .php folder
Just add:
extension = fileinfo.so
above this:
; {{{ The following lines were automatically added by DreamHost
zend_extension=opcache.so
; }}} That's all from DreamHost
You may need to login to your Dreamhost account to click change settings.
in ee the file info window should then display
After I did this I had no problems uploading files to my site,
however you may need to repeat the above if Dreamhost updates the PHP version

Suggested Change
Dreamhost automatically add a .php file with a latest version PHP folder which includes a phprc file, however you need to manually insert the "extension = fileinfo.so" into the file above and outside the brackets that Dreamhost inserts automatically, otherwise it gets overwritten with any updates, they will not do it for you so I was told.
Reasoning
Just saves a lot of digging aroung on the Dreamhost Wiki to find out why the file info does not work and clients cannot upload images after a PHP version update
