- Update to 8.14. Changes since 8.12: Bug fixes: - ls --dereference no longer outputs erroneous "argetm" strings for dangling symlinks when an 'ln=target' entry is in $LS_COLORS. [bug introduced in fileutils-4.0] - ls -lL symlink once again properly prints "+" when the referent has an ACL. [bug introduced in coreutils-8.13] - sort -g no longer infloops for certain inputs containing NaNs [bug introduced in coreutils-8.5] - chown and chgrp with the -v --from= options, now output the correct owner. I.E. for skipped files, the original ownership is output, not the new one. [bug introduced in sh-utils-2.0g] - cp -r could mistakenly change the permissions of an existing destination directory. [bug introduced in coreutils-6.8] - cp -u -p would fail to preserve one hard link for each up-to-date copy of a src-hard-linked name in the destination tree. I.e., if s/a and s/b are hard-linked and dst/s/a is up to date, "cp -up s dst" would copy s/b to dst/s/b rather than simply linking dst/s/b to dst/s/a. [This bug appears to have been present in "the beginning".] - fts-using tools (rm, du, chmod, chgrp, chown, chcon) no longer use memory proportional to the number of entries in each directory they process. Before, rm -rf 4-million-entry-directory would consume about 1GiB of memory. Now, it uses less than 30MB, no matter how many entries there are. [this bug was inherent in the use of fts: thus, for rm the bug was introduced in coreutils-8.0. The prior implementation of rm did not use as much memory. du, chmod, chgrp and chown started using fts in 6.0. chcon was added in coreutils-6.9.91 with fts support. ] - pr -T no longer ignores a specified LAST_PAGE to stop at. [bug introduced in textutils-1.19q] - printf '%d' '"' no longer accesses out-of-bounds memory in the diagnostic. [bug introduced in sh-utils-1.16] - split --number l/... no longer creates extraneous files in certain cases. [bug introduced in coreutils-8.8] - timeout now sends signals to commands that create their own process group. timeout is no longer confused when starting off with a child process. [bugs introduced in coreutils-7.0] - unexpand -a now aligns correctly when there are spaces spanning a tabstop, followed by a tab. In that case a space was dropped, causing misalignment. We also now ensure that a space never precedes a tab. [bug introduced in coreutils-5.3.0] New features: - date now accepts ISO 8601 date-time strings with "T" as the separator. It has long parsed dates like "2004-02-29 16:21:42" with a space between the date and time strings. Now it also parses "2004-02-29T16:21:42" and fractional-second and time-zone-annotated variants like "2004-02-29T16:21:42.333-07:00" - md5sum accepts the new --strict option. With --check, it makes the tool exit non-zero for any invalid input line, rather than just warning. This also affects sha1sum, sha224sum, sha384sum and sha512sum. - split accepts a new --filter=CMD option. With it, split filters output through CMD. CMD may use the $FILE environment variable, which is set to the nominal output file name for each invocation of CMD. For example, to split a file into 3 approximately equal parts, which are then compressed: split -n3 --filter='xz > $FILE.xz' big Note the use of single quotes, not double quotes. That creates files named xaa.xz, xab.xz and xac.xz. - timeout accepts a new --foreground option, to support commands not started directly from a shell prompt, where the command is interactive or needs to receive signals initiated from the terminal. Improvements: - md5sum --check now supports the -r format from the corresponding BSD tool. This also affects sha1sum, sha224sum, sha384sum and sha512sum. - pwd now works also on systems without openat. On such systems, pwd would fail when run from a directory whose absolute name contained more than PATH_MAX / 3 components. The df, stat and readlink programs are also affected due to their use of the canonicalize_* functions. - join --check-order now prints "join: FILE:LINE_NUMBER: bad_line" for an unsorted input, rather than e.g., "join: file 1 is not in sorted order". - shuf outputs small subsets of large permutations much more efficiently. For example `shuf -i1-$((2**32-1)) -n2` no longer exhausts memory. - stat -f now recognizes the GPFS, MQUEUE and PSTOREFS file system types. - timeout now supports sub-second timeouts. Changes in behavior: - chmod, chown and chgrp now output the original attributes in messages, when -v or -c specified. - cp -au (where --preserve=links is implicit) may now replace newer files in the destination, to mirror hard links from the source.
