- Update to 9.5:
Bug fixes:
* chmod -R now avoids a race where an attacker may replace a traversed file
with a symlink, causing chmod to operate on an unintended file.
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
* cp, mv, and install no longer issue spurious diagnostics like "failed
to preserve ownership" when copying to GNU/Linux CIFS file systems.
They do this by working around some Linux CIFS bugs.
* cp --no-preserve=mode will correctly maintain set-group-ID bits
for created directories. Previously on systems that didn't support ACLs,
cp would have reset the set-group-ID bit on created directories.
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.20]
* join and uniq now support multi-byte characters better.
For example, 'join -tX' now works even if X is a multi-byte character,
and both programs now treat multi-byte characters like U+3000
IDEOGRAPHIC SPACE as blanks if the current locale treats them so.
* numfmt options like --suffix no longer have an arbitrary 127-byte limit.
[bug introduced with numfmt in coreutils-8.21]
* mktemp with --suffix now better diagnoses templates with too few X's.
Previously it conflated the insignificant --suffix in the error.
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.1]
* sort again handles thousands grouping characters in single-byte locales
where the grouping character is greater than CHAR_MAX. For e.g. signed
character platforms with a 0xA0 (aka  ) grouping character.
[bug introduced in coreutils-9.1]
* split --line-bytes with a mixture of very long and short lines
no longer overwrites the heap (CVE-2024-0684).
[bug introduced in coreutils-9.2]
* tail no longer mishandles input from files in /proc and /sys file systems,
on systems with a page size larger than the stdio BUFSIZ.
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
* timeout avoids a narrow race condition, where it might kill arbitrary
processes after a failed process fork.
[bug introduced with timeout in coreutils-7.0]
* timeout avoids a narrow race condition, where it might fail to
kill monitored processes immediately after forking them.
[bug introduced with timeout in coreutils-7.0]
* wc no longer fails to count unprintable characters as parts of words.
[bug introduced in textutils-2.1]
Changes in behavior:
* base32 and base64 no longer require padding when decoding.
Previously an error was given for non padded encoded data.
* base32 and base64 have improved detection of corrupted encodings.
Previously encodings with non zero padding bits were accepted.
* basenc --base16 -d now supports lower case hexadecimal characters.
Previously an error was given for lower case hex digits.
* cp --no-clobber, and mv -n no longer exit with failure status if
existing files are encountered in the destination. Instead they revert
to the behavior from before v9.2, silently skipping existing files.
* ls --dired now implies long format output without hyperlinks enabled,
and will take precedence over previously specified formats or hyperlink
mode.
* numfmt will accept lowercase 'k' to indicate Kilo or Kibi units on input,
and uses lowercase 'k' when outputting such units in '--to=si' mode.
* pinky no longer tries to canonicalize the user's login location by default,
rather requiring the new --lookup option to enable this often slow feature.
* wc no longer ignores encoding errors when counting words.
Instead, it treats them as non white space.
New features:
* chgrp now accepts the --from=OWNER:GROUP option to restrict changes to files
with matching current OWNER and/or GROUP, as already supported by chown(1).
* chmod adds support for -h, -H,-L,-P, and --dereference options, providing
more control over symlink handling. This supports more secure handling of
CLI arguments, and is more consistent with chown, and chmod on other
systems.
* cp now accepts the --keep-directory-symlink option (like tar), to preserve
and follow existing symlinks to directories in the destination.
* cp and mv now accept the --update=none-fail option, which is similar
to the --no-clobber option, except that existing files are diagnosed,
and the command exits with failure status if existing files.
The -n,--no-clobber option is best avoided due to platform differences.
* env now accepts the -a,--argv0 option to override the zeroth argument
of the command being executed.
* mv now accepts an --exchange option, which causes the source and
destination to be exchanged. It should be combined with
--no-target-directory (-T) if the destination is a directory.
The exchange is atomic if source and destination are on a single
file system that supports atomic exchange; --exchange is not yet
supported in other situations.
* od now supports printing IEEE half precision floating point with -t fH,
or brain 16 bit floating point with -t fB, where supported by the compiler.
* tail now supports following multiple processes, with repeated --pid options.
Improvements:
* cp,mv,install,cat,split now read and write a minimum of 256KiB at a time.
This was previously 128KiB and increasing to 256KiB was seen to increase
throughput by 10-20% when reading cached files on modern systems.
* env,kill,timeout now support unnamed signals. kill(1) for example now
supports sending such signals, and env(1) will list them appropriately.
* SELinux operations in file copy operations are now more efficient,
avoiding unneeded MCS/MLS label translation.
* sort no longer dynamically links to libcrypto unless -R is used.
This decreases startup overhead in the typical case.
* wc is now much faster in single-byte locales and somewhat faster in
multi-byte locales.
- coreutils-9.4.split-CVE-2024-0684.patch: Remove now-upstream patch.
- gnulib-readutmp-under-gdm.patch: Likewise.
- gnulib-readutmp.patch: Likewise.
- coreutils-i18n.patch: Remove multi-byte patches for join and uniq, as the
upstream version now handles those tests.
Pull in gnulib module mbchar manually, as it is a dependency of mbfile,
but dropped out of the upstream dependency chain.
- coreutils-misc.patch: Remove change for gnulib-tests/test-isnanl.h.
- coreutils-fix-gnulib-time_r-tests.patch: Add upstream gnulib patch to skip
French test if TZ='Europe/Paris' does not work.
