Remove configure options gl_cv_func_printf_directive_n and

gl_cv_func_printf_infinite_long_double again because of constant
|
|
|
|
factory build failures on x86_64 and i586. The argument for
|
|
|
|
adding them was that the fortify checks would be bypassed
|
|
|
|
by the gnulib "reimplementation of printf", but that is not
|
|
|
|
the case: instead, gnulib just adds some wrapping code to ensure
|
|
|
|
a consistent behaviour on all supported platforms.

- Fix multibyte issue in unexpand (rh#821262)
|
|
|
|
(coreutils-i18n.patch: patch by Roman Kollár <rkollar@redhat.com>)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Fix cut to terminate mbdelim string
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Otherwise, cut might do an unbounded strdup of the delimiter string
|
|
|
|
in i18n mode (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=911929)
|
|
|
|
(coreutils-i18n.patch, from Mark Wielaard <mjw@redhat.com>)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Add su(1) again
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now, su(1) will be provided via a symlink trick
|
|
|
|
to the file installed with a ".core" suffix.
|
|
|
|
By this, we can upgrade to 8.21 without having to wait
|
|
|
|
for a util-linux version providing it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* coreutils-su.patch: Add cumulative su patch from previous Base:System
|
|
|
|
version 8.17, ported to 8.21 build structure. This supersedes the

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* pam, pam-devel: Add as requirements, also during build.
|
|
|
|
* coreutils.spec (%description): Clarify that su is included although removed
|
|
|
|
upstreams.
|
|
|
|
(%install): Install su+kill files with suffix ".core".
|
|
|
|
(%post): Move setting permissions on su from %posttrans to %install.
|
|
|
|
(%posttrans): Create symlinks to files with ".core" suffix unless already
|
|
|
|
existing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Install kill(1) with the same symlink trick.
|

|
|
|
|
|
* coreutils-remove_hostname_documentation.patch
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Add patch to build 'timeout' as PIE (OBS requires it).
|
|
|
|
This patch actually was included in one of the old su patches.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* new patch name: coreutils-build-timeout-as-pie.patch
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
* Remove -Wall from CFLAGS as it is already included in OBS' default options.

|
|
|
|
coreutils' regex implementation.
|
|
|
|
* Remove custom gl_cv_func_printf_directive_n and gl_cv_func_isnanl_works.
|
|
|

- Update to 8.21 (2013-02-14) [stable]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** New programs
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
numfmt: reformat numbers
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** New features
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
df now accepts the --output[=FIELD_LIST] option to define the list of columns
|
|
|
|
to include in the output, or all available columns if the FIELD_LIST is
|
|
|
|
omitted. Note this enables df to output both block and inode fields together.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
du now accepts the --threshold=SIZE option to restrict the output to entries
|
|
|
|
with such a minimum SIZE (or a maximum SIZE if it is negative).
|
|
|
|
du recognizes -t SIZE as equivalent, for compatibility with FreeBSD.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cp --no-preserve=mode now no longer exits non-zero.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.20]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cut with a range like "N-" no longer allocates N/8 bytes. That buffer
|
|
|
|
would never be used, and allocation failure could cause cut to fail.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.10]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cut no longer accepts the invalid range 0-, which made it print empty lines.
|
|
|
|
Instead, cut now fails and emits an appropriate diagnostic.
|
|
|
|
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cut now handles overlapping to-EOL ranges properly. Before, it would
|
|
|
|
interpret "-b2-,3-" like "-b3-". Now it's treated like "-b2-".
|
|
|
|
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cut no longer prints extraneous delimiters when a to-EOL range subsumes
|
|
|
|
another range. Before, "echo 123|cut --output-delim=: -b2-,3" would print
|
|
|
|
"2:3". Now it prints "23". [bug introduced in 5.3.0]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cut -f no longer inspects input line N+1 before fully outputting line N,
|
|
|
|
which avoids delayed output for intermittent input.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in TEXTUTILS-1_8b]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
factor no longer loops infinitely on 32 bit powerpc or sparc systems.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.20]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
install -m M SOURCE DEST no longer has a race condition where DEST's
|
|
|
|
permissions are temporarily derived from SOURCE instead of from M.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
pr -n no longer crashes when passed values >= 32. Also, line numbers are
|
|
|
|
consistently padded with spaces, rather than with zeros for certain widths.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in TEXTUTILS-1_22i]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
seq -w ensures that for numbers input in scientific notation,
|
|
|
|
the output numbers are properly aligned and of the correct width.
|
|
|
|
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
seq -w ensures correct alignment when the step value includes a precision
|
|
|
|
while the start value does not, and the number sequence narrows.
|
|
|
|
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
seq -s no longer prints an erroneous newline after the first number, and
|
|
|
|
outputs a newline after the last number rather than a trailing separator.
|
|
|
|
Also seq no longer ignores a specified step value when the end value is 1.
|
|
|
|
[bugs introduced in coreutils-8.20]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
timeout now ensures that blocking of ALRM signals is not inherited from
|
|
|
|
its parent, which would cause timeouts to be ignored.
|
|
|
|
[the bug dates back to the initial implementation]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Changes in behavior
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
df --total now prints '-' into the target column (mount point) of the
|
|
|
|
summary line, accommodating the --output option where the target field
|
|
|
|
can be in any column. If there is no source column, then df prints
|
|
|
|
'total' in the target column.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
df now properly outputs file system information with bind mounts present on
|
|
|
|
the system by skipping duplicate entries (identified by the device number).
|
|
|
|
Consequently, df also elides the early-boot pseudo file system type "rootfs".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
nl no longer supports the --page-increment option, which has been
|
|
|
|
deprecated since coreutils-7.5. Use --line-increment instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Improvements
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
readlink now supports multiple arguments, and a complementary
|
|
|
|
-z, --zero option to delimit output items with the NUL character.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
stat and tail now know about CEPH. stat -f --format=%T now reports the file
|
|
|
|
system type, and tail -f uses polling for files on CEPH file systems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
stty now supports configuring DTR/DSR hardware flow control where available.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Build-related
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Perl is now more of a prerequisite. It has long been required in order
|
|
|
|
to run (not skip) a significant percentage of the tests. Now, it is
|
|
|
|
also required in order to generate proper man pages, via help2man. The
|
|
|
|
generated man/*.1 man pages are no longer distributed. Building without
|
|
|
|
perl, you would create stub man pages. Thus, while perl is not an
|
|
|
|
official prerequisite (build and "make check" will still succeed), any
|
|
|
|
resulting man pages would be inferior. In addition, this fixes a bug
|
|
|
|
in distributed (not from clone) Makefile.in that could cause parallel
|
|
|
|
build failure when building from modified sources, as is common practice
|
|
|
|
for a patched distribution package.
|
|
|
|
|
|

factor now builds on x86_64 with x32 ABI, 32 bit MIPS, and all HPPA systems,
|
|
|

by avoiding incompatible asm. [bug introduced in coreutils-8.20]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A root-only test predicate would always fail. Its job was to determine
|
|
|
|
whether our dummy user, $NON_ROOT_USERNAME, was able to run binaries from
|
|
|
|
the build directory. As a result, all dependent tests were always skipped.
|
|
|
|
Now, those tests may be run once again. [bug introduced in coreutils-8.20]

- Update to 8.20 (2012-10-23) [stable]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** New features
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
dd now accepts 'status=none' to suppress all informational output.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
md5sum now accepts the --tag option to print BSD-style output with GNU
|
|
|
|
file name escaping. This also affects sha1sum, sha224sum, sha256sum,
|
|
|
|
sha384sum and sha512sum.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cp could read from freed memory and could even make corrupt copies.
|
|
|
|
This could happen with a very fragmented and sparse input file,
|
|
|
|
on GNU/Linux file systems supporting fiemap extent scanning.
|
|
|
|
This bug also affects mv when it resorts to copying, and install.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.11]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cp --no-preserve=mode now no longer preserves the original file's
|
|
|
|
permissions but correctly sets mode specified by 0666 & ~umask
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
du no longer emits a "disk-corrupted"-style diagnostic when it detects
|
|
|
|
a directory cycle that is due to a bind-mounted directory. Instead,
|
|
|
|
it detects this precise type of cycle, diagnoses it as such and
|
|
|
|
eventually exits nonzero.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
factor (when using gmp) would mistakenly declare some composite numbers
|
|
|
|
to be prime, e.g., 465658903, 2242724851, 6635692801 and many more.
|
|
|
|
The fix makes factor somewhat slower (~25%) for ranges of consecutive
|
|
|
|
numbers, and up to 8 times slower for some worst-case individual numbers.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-7.0, with GNU MP support]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ls now correctly colors dangling symlinks when listing their containing
|
|
|
|
directories, with orphaned symlink coloring disabled in LS_COLORS.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.14]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
rm -i -d now prompts the user then removes an empty directory, rather
|
|
|
|
than ignoring the -d option and failing with an 'Is a directory' error.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.19, with the addition of --dir (-d)]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
rm -r S/ (where S is a symlink-to-directory) no longer gives the invalid
|
|
|
|
"Too many levels of symbolic links" diagnostic.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.6]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
seq now handles arbitrarily long non-negative whole numbers when the
|
|
|
|
increment is 1 and when no format-changing option is specified.
|
|
|
|
Before, this would infloop:
|
|
|
|
b=100000000000000000000; seq $b $b
|
|
|
|
[the bug dates back to the initial implementation]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Changes in behavior
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
nproc now diagnoses with an error, non option command line parameters.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Improvements
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
factor's core has been rewritten for speed and increased range.
|
|
|
|
It can now factor numbers up to 2^128, even without GMP support.
|
|
|
|
Its speed is from a few times better (for small numbers) to over
|
|
|
|
10,000 times better (just below 2^64). The new code also runs a
|
|
|
|
deterministic primality test for each prime factor, not just a
|
|
|
|
probabilistic test.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
seq is now up to 70 times faster than it was in coreutils-8.19 and prior,
|
|
|
|
but only with non-negative whole numbers, an increment of 1, and no
|
|
|
|
format-changing options.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
stat and tail know about ZFS, VZFS and VMHGFS. stat -f --format=%T now
|
|
|
|
reports the file system type, and tail -f now uses inotify for files on
|
|
|
|
ZFS and VZFS file systems, rather than the default (for unknown file
|
|
|
|
system types) of issuing a warning and reverting to polling. tail -f
|
|
|
|
still uses polling for files on VMHGFS file systems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Build-related
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
root-only tests now check for permissions of our dummy user,
|
|
|
|
$NON_ROOT_USERNAME, before trying to run binaries from the build directory.
|
|
|
|
Before, we would get hard-to-diagnose reports of failing root-only tests.
|
|
|
|
Now, those tests are skipped with a useful diagnostic when the root tests
|
|
|
|
are run without following the instructions in README.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We now build most directories using non-recursive make rules. I.e.,
|
|
|
|
rather than running make in man/, lib/, src/, tests/, instead, the top
|
|
|
|
level Makefile.am includes a $dir/local.mk that describes how to build
|
|
|
|
the targets in the corresponding directory. Two directories remain
|
|
|
|
unconverted: po/, gnulib-tests/. One nice side-effect is that the more
|
|
|
|
accurate dependencies have eliminated a nagging occasional failure that
|
|
|
|
was seen when running parallel "make syntax-check".
|

- Update to 8.19 (2012-08-20) [stable]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
df now fails when the list of mounted file systems (/etc/mtab) cannot
|
|
|
|
be read, yet the file system type information is needed to process
|
|
|
|
certain options like -a, -l, -t and -x.
|
|
|
|
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sort -u could fail to output one or more result lines.
|
|
|
|
For example, this command would fail to print "1":
|
|
|
|
(yes 7 | head -11; echo 1) | sort --p=1 -S32b -u
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.6]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sort -u could read freed memory.
|
|
|
|
For example, this evokes a read from freed memory:
|
|
|
|
perl -le 'print "a\n"."0"x900'|valgrind sort --p=1 -S32b -u>/dev/null
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.6]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** New features
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
rm now accepts the --dir (-d) option which makes it remove empty directories.
|
|
|
|
Since removing empty directories is relatively safe, this option can be
|
|
|
|
used as a part of the alias rm='rm --dir'. This improves compatibility
|
|
|
|
with Mac OS X and BSD systems which also honor the -d option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update to 8.18 (2012-08-12) [stable]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cksum now prints checksums atomically so that concurrent
|
|
|
|
processes will not intersperse their output.
|
|
|
|
[the bug dates back to the initial implementation]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
date -d "$(printf '\xb0')" would print 00:00:00 with today's date
|
|
|
|
rather than diagnosing the invalid input. Now it reports this:
|
|
|
|
date: invalid date '\260'
|
|
|
|
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
df no longer outputs control characters present in the mount point name.
|
|
|
|
Such characters are replaced with '?', so for example, scripts consuming
|
|
|
|
lines output by df, can work reliably.
|
|
|
|
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
df --total now exits with an appropriate diagnostic and error code, when
|
|
|
|
file system --type options do not lead to a processed file system.
|
|
|
|
[This bug dates back to when --total was added in coreutils-7.0]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
head --lines=-N (-n-N) now resets the read pointer of a seekable input file.
|
|
|
|
This means that "head -n-3" no longer consumes all of its input, and lines
|
|
|
|
not output by head may be processed by other programs. For example, this
|
|
|
|
command now prints the final line, 2, while before it would print nothing:
|
|
|
|
seq 2 > k; (head -n-1 > /dev/null; cat) < k
|
|
|
|
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ls --color would mis-color relative-named symlinks in /
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.17]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
split now ensures it doesn't overwrite the input file with generated output.
|
|
|
|
[the bug dates back to the initial implementation]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
stat and df now report the correct file system usage,
|
|
|
|
in all situations on GNU/Linux, by correctly determining the block size.
|
|
|
|
[df bug since coreutils-5.0.91, stat bug since the initial implementation]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
tail -f no longer tries to use inotify on AUFS or PanFS file systems
|
|
|
|
[you might say this was introduced in coreutils-7.5, along with inotify
|
|
|
|
support, but even now, its magic number isn't in the usual place.]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** New features
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
stat -f recognizes the new remote file system types: aufs, panfs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Changes in behavior
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
su: this program has been removed. We stopped installing "su" by
|
|
|
|
default with the release of coreutils-6.9.90 on 2007-12-01. Now,
|
|
|
|
that the util-linux package has the union of the Suse and Fedora
|
|
|
|
patches as well as enough support to build on the Hurd, we no longer
|
|
|
|
have any reason to include it here.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Improvements
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sort avoids redundant processing in the presence of inaccessible inputs,
|
|
|
|
or unwritable output. Sort now diagnoses certain errors at start-up,
|
|
|
|
rather than after potentially expensive processing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sort now allocates no more than 75% of physical memory by default,
|
|
|
|
to better share system resources, and thus operate more efficiently.
|
|
|
|
[The default max memory usage changed from 50% to 100% in coreutils-8.16]

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update to 8.17:
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* stat no longer reports a negative file size as a huge positive
|
|
|
|
number. [bug present since 'stat' was introduced in
|
|
|
|
fileutils-4.1.9]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** New features
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* split and truncate now allow any seekable files in situations
|
|
|
|
where the file size is needed, instead of insisting on regular
|
|
|
|
files.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* fmt now accepts the --goal=WIDTH (-g) option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* stat -f recognizes new file system types: bdevfs, inodefs, qnx6
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Changes in behavior
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* cp,mv,install,cat,split: now read and write a minimum of 64KiB at
|
|
|
|
a time. This was previously 32KiB and increasing to 64KiB was
|
|
|
|
seen to increase throughput by about 10% when reading cached
|
|
|
|
files on 64 bit GNU/Linux.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* cp --attributes-only no longer truncates any existing destination
|
|
|
|
file, allowing for more general copying of attributes from one
|
|
|
|
file to another.
|
|
|

Mon May 7 14:22:29 CEST 2012 - pth@suse.de
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Two new upstream patches:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* id and groups, when invoked with no user name argument, would
|
|
|
|
print the default group ID listed in the password database, and
|
|
|
|
sometimes that ID would be neither real nor effective. For
|
|
|
|
example, when run set-GID, or in a session for which the default
|
|
|
|
group has just been changed, the new group ID would be listed,
|
|
|
|
even though it is not yet effective.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* 'cp S D' is no longer subject to a race: if an existing D were
|
|
|
|
removed between the initial stat and subsequent
|
|
|
|
open-without-O_CREAT, cp would fail with a confusing diagnostic
|
|
|
|
saying that the destination, D, was not found. Now, in this
|
|
|
|
unusual case, it retries the open (but with O_CREAT), and hence
|
|
|
|
usually succeeds. With NFS attribute caching, the condition was
|
|
|
|
particularly easy to trigger, since there, the removal of D could
|
|
|
|
precede the initial stat. [This bug was present in "the
|
|
|
|
beginning".] (bnc#760926).

|
|
Mon Apr 16 13:23:56 CEST 2012 - pth@suse.de
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update to 8.16:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Improvements:
|
|
|
|
* As a GNU extension, 'chmod', 'mkdir', and 'install' now accept
|
|
|
|
operators '-', '+', '=' followed by octal modes;
|
|
|
|
* Also, ordinary numeric modes with five or more digits no longer
|
|
|
|
preserve setuid and setgid bits, so that 'chmod 00755 FOO' now
|
|
|
|
clears FOO's setuid and setgid bits.
|
|
|
|
* dd now accepts the count_bytes, skip_bytes iflags and the
|
|
|
|
seek_bytes oflag, to more easily allow processing portions of a
|
|
|
|
file.
|
|
|
|
* dd now accepts the conv=sparse flag to attempt to create sparse
|
|
|
|
output, by seeking rather than writing to the output file.
|
|
|
|
* ln now accepts the --relative option, to generate a relative
|
|
|
|
symbolic link to a target, irrespective of how the target is
|
|
|
|
specified.
|
|
|
|
* split now accepts an optional "from" argument to
|
|
|
|
--numeric-suffixes, which changes the start number from the
|
|
|
|
default of 0.
|
|
|
|
* split now accepts the --additional-suffix option, to append an
|
|
|
|
additional static suffix to output file names.
|
|
|
|
* basename now supports the -a and -s options, which allow
|
|
|
|
processing of more than one argument at a time. Also the
|
|
|
|
complementary -z option was added to delimit output items with
|
|
|
|
the NUL character.
|
|
|
|
* dirname now supports more than one argument. Also the complementary
|
|
|
|
z option was added to delimit output items with the NUL character.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
* du --one-file-system (-x) would ignore any non-directory
|
|
|
|
specified on the command line. For example, "touch f; du -x f"
|
|
|
|
would print nothing. [bug introduced in coreutils-8.15]
|
|
|
|
* mv now lets you move a symlink onto a same-inode destination
|
|
|
|
file that has two or more hard links.
|
|
|
|
* "mv A B" could succeed, yet A would remain.
|
|
|
|
* realpath no longer mishandles a root directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Improvements
|
|
|
|
* ls can be much more efficient, especially with large directories
|
|
|
|
on file systems for which getfilecon-, ACL-check- and XATTR-
|
|
|
|
check-induced syscalls fail with ENOTSUP or similar.
|
|
|
|
* 'realpath --relative-base=dir' in isolation now implies
|
|
|
|
'--relative-to=dir' instead of causing a usage failure.
|
|
|
|
* split now supports an unlimited number of split files as default
|
|
|
|
behavior.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

- Add two upstream patches that speed up ls (bnc#752943):
|
|
|
|
* Cache (l)getfilecon calls to avoid the vast majority of the failing
|
|
|
|
underlying getxattr syscalls.
|
|
|
|
* Avoids always-failing queries for whether a file has a nontrivial
|
|

|
ACL and for whether a file has certain "capabilities".

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update to 8.15:
|
|
|
|
** New programs
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
realpath: print resolved file names.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
du --one-file-system (-x) would ignore any non-directory specified on
|
|
|
|
the command line. For example, "touch f; du -x f" would print nothing.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.14]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
du -x no longer counts root directories of other file systems.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-5.1.0]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ls --color many-entry-directory was uninterruptible for too long
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-5.2.1]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ls's -k option no longer affects how ls -l outputs file sizes.
|
|
|
|
It now affects only the per-directory block counts written by -l,
|
|
|
|
and the sizes written by -s. This is for compatibility with BSD
|
|
|
|
and with POSIX 2008. Because -k is no longer equivalent to
|
|
|
|
--block-size=1KiB, a new long option --kibibyte stands for -k.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-4.5.4]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ls -l would leak a little memory (security context string) for each
|
|
|
|
nonempty directory listed on the command line, when using SELinux.
|
|
|
|
[bug probably introduced in coreutils-6.10 with SELinux support]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
split -n 1/2 FILE no longer fails when operating on a growing file, or
|
|
|
|
(on some systems) when operating on a non-regular file like /dev/zero.
|
|
|
|
It would report "/dev/zero: No such file or directory" even though
|
|
|
|
the file obviously exists. Same for -n l/2.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.8, with the addition of the -n option]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
stat -f now recognizes the FhGFS and PipeFS file system types.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
tac no longer fails to handle two or more non-seekable inputs
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-5.3.0]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
tail -f no longer tries to use inotify on GPFS or FhGFS file systems
|
|
|
|
[you might say this was introduced in coreutils-7.5, along with inotify
|
|
|
|
support, but the new magic numbers weren't in the usual places then.]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Changes in behavior
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
df avoids long UUID-including file system names in the default listing.
|
|
|
|
With recent enough kernel/tools, these long names would be used, pushing
|
|
|
|
second and subsequent columns far to the right. Now, when a long name
|
|
|
|
refers to a symlink, and no file systems are specified, df prints the
|
|
|
|
usually-short referent instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
tail -f now uses polling (not inotify) when any of its file arguments
|
|
|
|
resides on a file system of unknown type. In addition, for each such
|
|
|
|
argument, tail -f prints a warning with the FS type magic number and a
|
|
|
|
request to report it to the bug-reporting address.

Thu Oct 13 16:07:16 CEST 2011 - pth@suse.de
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- 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:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
* Bug fixes
|
|
|
|

|
tail's --follow=name option no longer implies --retry on systems
|
|
|
|
with inotify support. [bug introduced in coreutils-7.5]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Changes in behavior
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cp's extent-based (FIEMAP) copying code is more reliable in the face
|
|
|
|
of varying and undocumented file system semantics:
|
|
|
|
- it no longer treats unwritten extents specially
|
|
|
|
- a FIEMAP-based extent copy always uses the FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC flag.
|
|
|
|
Before, it would incur the performance penalty of that sync only
|
|
|
|
for 2.6.38 and older kernels. We thought all problems would be
|
|
|
|
resolved for 2.6.39.
|
|
|
|
- it now attempts a FIEMAP copy only on a file that appears sparse.
|
|
|
|
Sparse files are relatively unusual, and the copying code incurs
|
|
|
|
the performance penalty of the now-mandatory sync only for them.
|
|
|
|
- Add complete german meesage catalogue.

cp -a --link would not create a hardlink to a symlink, instead
|
|
|
|
copying the symlink and then not preserving its timestamp.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.0]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cp now avoids FIEMAP issues with BTRFS before Linux 2.6.38,
|
|
|
|
which could result in corrupt copies of sparse files.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.10]
|
|
|

** New features
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
dd now accepts the 'nocache' flag to the iflag and oflag options,
|
|
|
|
which will discard any cache associated with the files, or
|
|
|
|
processed portion thereof.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
dd now warns that 'iflag=fullblock' should be used,
|
|
|
|
in various cases where partial reads can cause issues.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Changes in behavior
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cp now avoids syncing files when possible, when doing a FIEMAP copy.
|
|
|
|
The sync is only needed on Linux kernels before 2.6.39.
|
|
|
|
[The sync was introduced in coreutils-8.10]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cp now copies empty extents efficiently, when doing a FIEMAP copy.
|
|
|
|
It no longer reads the zero bytes from the input, and also can
|
|
|
|
efficiently create a hole in the output file when --sparse=always
|
|
|
|
is specified.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
df now aligns columns consistently, and no longer wraps entries
|
|
|
|
with longer device identifiers, over two lines.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
install now rejects its long-deprecated --preserve_context option.
|
|
|
|
Use --preserve-context instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
test now accepts "==" as a synonym for "="

|

|
|
|
|
- Update to 8.10:
|
|
|
|
* Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- du would abort with a failed assertion when two conditions are
|
|
|
|
met: part of the hierarchy being traversed is moved to a higher
|
|
|
|
level in the directory tree, and there is at least one more
|
|
|
|
command line directory argument following the one containing
|
|
|
|
the moved sub-tree. [bug introduced in coreutils-5.1.0]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- join --header now skips the ordering check for the first line
|
|
|
|
even if the other file is empty. [bug introduced in
|
|
|
|
coreutils-8.5]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- rm -f no longer fails for EINVAL or EILSEQ on file systems that
|
|
|
|
reject file names invalid for that file system.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- uniq -f NUM no longer tries to process fields after end of
|
|
|
|
line. [bug introduced in coreutils-7.0]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* New features
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- cp now copies sparse files efficiently on file systems with
|
|
|
|
FIEMAP support (ext4, btrfs, xfs, ocfs2). Before, it had to
|
|
|
|
read 2^20 bytes when copying a 1MiB sparse file. Now, it
|
|
|
|
copies bytes only for the non-sparse sections of a file.
|
|
|
|
Similarly, to induce a hole in the output file, it had to
|
|
|
|
detect a long sequence of zero bytes. Now, it knows precisely
|
|
|
|
where each hole in an input file is, and can reproduce them
|
|
|
|
efficiently in the output file. mv also benefits when it
|
|
|
|
resorts to copying, e.g., between file systems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- join now supports -o 'auto' which will automatically infer the
|
|
|
|
output format from the first line in each file, to ensure the
|
|
|
|
same number of fields are output for each line.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Changes in behavior
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- join no longer reports disorder when one of the files is empty.
|
|
|
|
This allows one to use join as a field extractor like:
|
|
|
|
join -a1 -o 1.3,1.1 - /dev/null
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Add upstream patch that fixes a segfault in cut.
|
|
|
|
- Add upstream patch to fix sparse fiemap tests.
|
|
|
|
- Fix i18n patch for join.

Mon Jan 3 19:32:57 CET 2011 - pth@suse.de
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update to 8.8. Changes since 8.6:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cp -u no longer does unnecessary copying merely because the source
|
|
|
|
has finer-grained time stamps than the destination.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
od now prints floating-point numbers without losing information, and
|
|
|
|
it no longer omits spaces between floating-point columns in some cases.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sort -u with at least two threads could attempt to read through a
|
|
|
|
corrupted pointer. [bug introduced in coreutils-8.6]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sort with at least two threads and with blocked output would busy-loop
|
|
|
|
(spinlock) all threads, often using 100% of available CPU cycles to
|
|
|
|
do no work. I.e., "sort < big-file | less" could waste a lot of power.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.6]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sort with at least two threads no longer segfaults due to use of pointers
|
|
|
|
into the stack of an expired thread. [bug introduced in coreutils-8.6]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sort --compress no longer mishandles subprocesses' exit statuses,
|
|
|
|
no longer hangs indefinitely due to a bug in waiting for subprocesses,
|
|
|
|
and no longer generates many more than NMERGE subprocesses.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sort -m -o f f ... f no longer dumps core when file descriptors are limited.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
csplit no longer corrupts heap when writing more than 999 files,
|
|
|
|
nor does it leak memory for every chunk of input processed
|
|
|
|
[the bugs were present in the initial implementation]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
tail -F once again notices changes in a currently unavailable
|
|
|
|
remote directory [bug introduced in coreutils-7.5]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in behavior:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sort will not create more than 8 threads by default due to diminishing
|
|
|
|
performance gains. Also the --parallel option is no longer restricted
|
|
|
|
to the number of available processors.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cp --attributes-only now completely overrides --reflink.
|
|
|
|
Previously a reflink was needlessly attempted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
stat's %X, %Y, and %Z directives once again print only the integer
|
|
|
|
part of seconds since the epoch. This reverts a change from
|
|
|
|
coreutils-8.6, that was deemed unnecessarily disruptive.
|
|
|
|
To obtain a nanosecond-precision time stamp for %X use %.X;
|
|
|
|
if you want (say) just 3 fractional digits, use %.3X.
|
|
|
|
Likewise for %Y and %Z.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
stat's new %W format directive would print floating point seconds.
|
|
|
|
However, with the above change to %X, %Y and %Z, we've made %W work
|
|
|
|
the same way as the others.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
split accepts the --number option to generate a specific number of files.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Add a complete german translation.
|
|
|
|
- Add upstreams patch for suffix calculation in split.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update to 8.6:
|
|
|
|
o bugfixes
|
|
|
|
* du no longer multiply counts a file that is a directory or whose
|
|
|
|
link count is 1.
|
|
|
|
* du -H and -L now consistently count pointed-to files instead of
|
|
|
|
symbolic links, and correctly diagnose dangling symlinks.
|
|
|
|
* du --ignore=D now ignores directory D even when that directory is
|
|
|
|
found to be part of a directory cycle.
|
|
|
|
* split now diagnoses read errors rather than silently exiting.
|
|
|
|
* tac would perform a double-free when given an input line longer
|
|
|
|
than 16KiB.
|
|
|
|
* tail -F once again notices changes in a currently unavailable
|
|
|
|
directory, and works around a Linux kernel bug where inotify runs
|
|
|
|
out of resources.
|
|
|
|
* tr now consistently handles case conversion character classes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
o New features
|
|
|
|
* cp now accepts the --attributes-only option to not copy file data.
|
|
|
|
* du recognizes -d N as equivalent to --max-depth=N
|
|
|
|
* sort now accepts the --debug option, to highlight the part of the
|
|
|
|
line significant in the sort, and warns about questionable options.
|
|
|
|
* sort now supports -d, -f, -i, -R, and -V in any combination.
|
|
|
|
* stat now accepts the %m format directive to output the mount point
|
|
|
|
for a file. It also accepts the %w and %W format directives for
|
|
|
|
outputting the birth time of a file, if one is available.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
o Changes in behavior
|
|
|
|
* df now consistently prints the device name for a bind mounted file,
|
|
|
|
rather than its aliased target.
|
|
|
|
* du now uses less than half as much memory when operating on trees
|
|
|
|
with many hard-linked files.
|
|
|
|
* ls -l now uses the traditional three field time style rather than
|
|
|
|
the wider two field numeric ISO style in locales where a style has
|
|
|
|
not been specified.
|
|
|
|
* rm's -d now evokes an error; before, it was silently ignored.
|
|
|
|
* sort -g now uses long doubles for greater range and precision.
|
|
|
|
* sort -h no longer rejects numbers with leading or trailing ".", and
|
|
|
|
no longer accepts numbers with multiple ".". It now considers all
|
|
|
|
zeros to be equal.
|
|
|
|
* sort now uses the number of available processors to parallelize
|
|
|
|
the sorting operation.
|
|
|
|
* stat now provides translated output when no format is specified.
|
|
|
|
* stat no longer accepts the --context (-Z) option.
|
|
|
|
* stat no longer accepts the %C directive when the --file-system
|
|
|
|
option is in effect.
|
|
|
|
* stat now outputs the full sub-second resolution for the atime,
|
|
|
|
mtime, and ctime values since the Epoch, when using the %X, %Y, and
|
|
|
|
%Z directives of the --format option.
|
|
|
|
* touch's --file option is no longer recognized. Use --reference=F
|
|
|
|
(-r) instead.
|
|
|
|
* truncate now supports setting file sizes relative to a reference
|
|
|
|
file. Also errors are no longer suppressed for unsupported file
|
|
|
|
types, and relative sizes are restricted to supported file types.

|
|
|
|
- Update to 8.5:
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
* cp and mv once again support preserving extended attributes.
|
|
|
|
* cp now preserves "capabilities" when also preserving file ownership.7
|
|
|
|
* ls --color once again honors the 'NORMAL' dircolors directive.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-6.11]
|
|
|
|
* sort -M now handles abbreviated months that are aligned using
|
|
|
|
blanks in the locale database. Also locales with 8 bit characters
|
|
|
|
are handled correctly, including multi byte locales with the caveat
|
|
|
|
that multi byte characters are matched case sensitively.
|
|
|
|
* sort again handles obsolescent key formats (+POS -POS) correctly.
|
|
|
|
Previously if -POS was specified, 1 field too many was used in the
|
|
|
|
sort. [bug introduced in coreutils-7.2]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
New features
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* join now accepts the --header option, to treat the first line of
|
|
|
|
each file as a header line to be joined and printed
|
|
|
|
unconditionally.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* timeout now accepts the --kill-after option which sends a kill
|
|
|
|
signal to the monitored command if it's still running the specified
|
|
|
|
duration after the initial signal was sent.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* who: the "+/-" --mesg (-T) indicator of whether a user/tty is
|
|
|
|
accepting messages could be incorrectly listed as "+", when in
|
|
|
|
fact, the user was not accepting messages (mesg no). Before, who
|
|
|
|
would examine only the permission bits, and not consider the group
|
|
|
|
of the TTY device file. Thus, if a login tty's group would change
|
|
|
|
somehow e.g., to "root", that would make it unwritable (via
|
|
|
|
write(1)) by normal users, in spite of whatever the permission bits
|
|
|
|
might imply. Now, when configured using the
|
|
|
|
--with-tty-group[=NAME] option, who also compares the group of the
|
|
|
|
TTY device with NAME (or "tty" if no group name is specified).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in behavior
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* ls --color no longer emits the final 3-byte color-resetting escape
|
|
|
|
sequence when it would be a no-op.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* join -t '' no longer emits an error and instead operates on each
|
|
|
|
line as a whole (even if they contain NUL characters).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

Sun Feb 22 10:49:52 CET 2009 - schwab@suse.de
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update to coreutils 7.1.
|
|
|
|
** New features
|
|
|
|
Add extended attribute support available on certain filesystems like ext2
|
|
|
|
and XFS.
|
|
|
|
cp: Tries to copy xattrs when --preserve=xattr or --preserve=all specified
|
|
|
|
mv: Always tries to copy xattrs
|
|
|
|
install: Never copies xattrs
|
|
|
|
cp and mv accept a new option, --no-clobber (-n): silently refrain
|
|
|
|
from overwriting any existing destination file
|
|
|
|
dd accepts iflag=cio and oflag=cio to open the file in CIO (concurrent I/O)
|
|
|
|
mode where this feature is available.
|
|
|
|
install accepts a new option, --compare (-C): compare each pair of source
|
|
|
|
and destination files, and if the destination has identical content and
|
|
|
|
any specified owner, group, permissions, and possibly SELinux context, then
|
|
|
|
do not modify the destination at all.
|
|
|
|
ls --color now highlights hard linked files, too
|
|
|
|
stat -f recognizes the Lustre file system type
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
chgrp, chmod, chown --silent (--quiet, -f) no longer print some diagnostics
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-5.1]
|
|
|
|
cp uses much less memory in some situations
|
|
|
|
cp -a now correctly tries to preserve SELinux context (announced in 6.9.90),
|
|
|
|
doesn't inform about failure, unlike with --preserve=all
|
|
|
|
du --files0-from=FILE no longer reads all of FILE into RAM before
|
|
|
|
processing the first file name
|
|
|
|
seq 9223372036854775807 9223372036854775808 now prints only two numbers
|
|
|
|
on systems with extended long double support and good library support.
|
|
|
|
Even with this patch, on some systems, it still produces invalid output,
|
|
|
|
from 3 to at least 1026 lines long. [bug introduced in coreutils-6.11]
|
|
|
|
seq -w now accounts for a decimal point added to the last number
|
|
|
|
to correctly print all numbers to the same width.
|
|
|
|
wc --files0-from=FILE no longer reads all of FILE into RAM, before
|
|
|
|
processing the first file name, unless the list of names is known
|
|
|
|
to be small enough.
|
|
|
|
** Changes in behavior
|
|
|
|
cp and mv: the --reply={yes,no,query} option has been removed.
|
|
|
|
Using it has elicited a warning for the last three years.
|
|
|
|
dd: user specified offsets that are too big are handled better.
|
|
|
|
Previously, erroneous parameters to skip and seek could result
|
|
|
|
in redundant reading of the file with no warnings or errors.
|
|
|
|
du: -H (initially equivalent to --si) is now equivalent to
|
|
|
|
--dereference-args, and thus works as POSIX requires
|
|
|
|
shred: now does 3 overwrite passes by default rather than 25.
|
|
|
|
ls -l now marks SELinux-only files with the less obtrusive '.',
|
|
|
|
rather than '+'. A file with any other combination of MAC and ACL
|
|
|
|
is still marked with a '+'.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update to coreutils 6.12.
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
chcon, runcon: --help output now includes the bug-reporting address
|
|
|
|
cp -p copies permissions more portably. For example, on MacOS X 10.5,
|
|
|
|
"cp -p some-fifo some-file" no longer fails while trying to copy the
|
|
|
|
permissions from the some-fifo argument.
|
|
|
|
id with no options now prints the SELinux context only when invoked
|
|
|
|
with no USERNAME argument.
|
|
|
|
id and groups once again print the AFS-specific nameless group-ID (PAG).
|
|
|
|
Printing of such large-numbered, kernel-only (not in /etc/group) group-IDs
|
|
|
|
was suppressed in 6.11 due to ignorance that they are useful.
|
|
|
|
uniq: avoid subtle field-skipping malfunction due to isblank misuse.
|
|
|
|
In some locales on some systems, isblank(240) (aka  ) is nonzero.
|
|
|
|
On such systems, uniq --skip-fields=N would fail to skip the proper
|
|
|
|
number of fields for some inputs.
|
|
|
|
tac: avoid segfault with --regex (-r) and multiple files, e.g.,
|
|
|
|
"echo > x; tac -r x x". [bug present at least in textutils-1.8b, from 1992]
|
|
|
|
** Changes in behavior
|
|
|
|
install once again sets SELinux context, when possible
|
|
|
|
[it was deliberately disabled in 6.9.90]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------

|
|
Sun Apr 20 00:19:07 CEST 2008 - schwab@suse.de
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update to coreutils 6.11.
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
configure --enable-no-install-program=groups now works.
|
|
|
|
"cp -fR fifo E" now succeeds with an existing E. Before this fix, using
|
|
|
|
-fR to copy a fifo or "special" file onto an existing file would fail
|
|
|
|
with EEXIST. Now, it once again unlinks the destination before trying
|
|
|
|
to create the destination file. [bug introduced in coreutils-5.90]
|
|
|
|
dd once again works with unnecessary options like if=/dev/stdin and
|
|
|
|
of=/dev/stdout. [bug introduced in fileutils-4.0h]
|
|
|
|
id now uses getgrouplist, when possible. This results in
|
|
|
|
much better performance when there are many users and/or groups.
|
|
|
|
ls no longer segfaults on files in /proc when linked with an older version
|
|
|
|
of libselinux. E.g., ls -l /proc/sys would dereference a NULL pointer.
|
|
|
|
md5sum would segfault for invalid BSD-style input, e.g.,
|
|
|
|
echo 'MD5 (' | md5sum -c - Now, md5sum ignores that line.
|
|
|
|
sha1sum, sha224sum, sha384sum, and sha512sum are affected, too.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-5.1.0]
|
|
|
|
md5sum -c would accept a NUL-containing checksum string like "abcd\0..."
|
|
|
|
and would unnecessarily read and compute the checksum of the named file,
|
|
|
|
and then compare that checksum to the invalid one: guaranteed to fail.
|
|
|
|
Now, it recognizes that the line is not valid and skips it.
|
|
|
|
sha1sum, sha224sum, sha384sum, and sha512sum are affected, too.
|
|
|
|
[bug present in the original version, in coreutils-4.5.1, 1995]
|
|
|
|
"mkdir -Z x dir" no longer segfaults when diagnosing invalid context "x"
|
|
|
|
mkfifo and mknod would fail similarly. Now they're fixed.
|
|
|
|
mv would mistakenly unlink a destination file before calling rename,
|
|
|
|
when the destination had two or more hard links. It no longer does that.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-5.3.0]
|
|
|
|
"paste -d'\' file" no longer overruns memory (heap since coreutils-5.1.2,
|
|
|
|
stack before then) [bug present in the original version, in 1992]
|
|
|
|
"pr -e" with a mix of backspaces and TABs no longer corrupts the heap
|
|
|
|
[bug present in the original version, in 1992]
|
|
|
|
"ptx -F'\' long-file-name" would overrun a malloc'd buffer and corrupt
|
|
|
|
the heap. That was triggered by a lone backslash (or odd number of them)
|
|
|
|
at the end of the option argument to --flag-truncation=STRING (-F),
|
|
|
|
--word-regexp=REGEXP (-W), or --sentence-regexp=REGEXP (-S).
|
|
|
|
"rm -r DIR" would mistakenly declare to be "write protected" -- and
|
|
|
|
prompt about -- full DIR-relative names longer than MIN (PATH_MAX, 8192).
|
|
|
|
"rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty" detects and ignores the failure
|
|
|
|
in more cases when a directory is empty.
|
|
|
|
"seq -f % 1" would issue the erroneous diagnostic "seq: memory exhausted"
|
|
|
|
rather than reporting the invalid string format.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-6.0]
|
|
|
|
** New features
|
|
|
|
join now verifies that the inputs are in sorted order. This check can
|
|
|
|
be turned off with the --nocheck-order option.
|
|
|
|
sort accepts the new option --sort=WORD, where WORD can be one of
|
|
|
|
general-numeric, month, numeric or random. These are equivalent to the
|
|
|
|
options --general-numeric-sort/-g, --month-sort/-M, --numeric-sort/-n
|
|
|
|
and --random-sort/-R, resp.
|
|
|
|
** Improvements
|
|
|
|
id and groups work around an AFS-related bug whereby those programs
|
|
|
|
would print an invalid group number, when given no user-name argument.
|
|
|
|
ls --color no longer outputs unnecessary escape sequences
|
|
|
|
seq gives better diagnostics for invalid formats.
|
|
|
|
** Portability
|
|
|
|
rm now works properly even on systems like BeOS and Haiku,
|
|
|
|
which have negative errno values.
|
|
|
|
** Consistency
|
|
|
|
install, mkdir, rmdir and split now write --verbose output to stdout,
|
|
|
|
not to stderr.

Mon Dec 3 10:44:24 CET 2007 - schwab@suse.de
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update to coreutils-6.9.90.
|
|
|
|
** New programs
|
|
|
|
arch: equivalent to uname -m, not installed by default
|
|
|
|
But don't install this program on Solaris systems.
|
|
|
|
chcon: change the SELinux security context of a file
|
|
|
|
mktemp: create a temporary file or directory (or names)
|
|
|
|
runcon: run a program in a different SELinux security context
|
|
|
|
** Programs no longer installed by default
|
|
|
|
hostname, su
|
|
|
|
** Changes in behavior
|
|
|
|
cp, by default, refuses to copy through a dangling destination symlink
|
|
|
|
Set POSIXLY_CORRECT if you require the old, risk-prone behavior.
|
|
|
|
pr -F no longer suppresses the footer or the first two blank lines in
|
|
|
|
the header. This is for compatibility with BSD and POSIX.
|
|
|
|
tr now warns about an unescaped backslash at end of string.
|
|
|
|
The tr from coreutils-5.2.1 and earlier would fail for such usage,
|
|
|
|
and Solaris' tr ignores that final byte.
|
|
|
|
** New features
|
|
|
|
Add SELinux support, based on the patch from Fedora:
|
|
|
|
* cp accepts new --preserve=context option.
|
|
|
|
* "cp -a" works with SELinux:
|
|
|
|
Now, cp -a attempts to preserve context, but failure to do so does
|
|
|
|
not change cp's exit status. However "cp --preserve=context" is
|
|
|
|
similar, but failure *does* cause cp to exit with nonzero status.
|
|
|
|
* install accepts new "-Z, --context=C" option.
|
|
|
|
* id accepts new "-Z" option.
|
|
|
|
* stat honors the new %C format directive: SELinux security context string
|
|
|
|
* ls accepts a slightly modified -Z option.
|
|
|
|
* ls: contrary to Fedora version, does not accept --lcontext and --scontext
|
|
|
|
cp -p tries to preserve the GID of a file even if preserving the UID
|
|
|
|
is not possible.
|
|
|
|
uniq accepts a new option: --zero-terminated (-z). As with the sort
|
|
|
|
option of the same name, this makes uniq consume and produce
|
|
|
|
NUL-terminated lines rather than newline-terminated lines.
|
|
|
|
wc no longer warns about character decoding errors in multibyte locales.
|
|
|
|
This means for example that "wc /bin/sh" now produces normal output
|
|
|
|
(though the word count will have no real meaning) rather than many
|
|
|
|
error messages.
|
|
|
|
** New build options
|
|
|
|
By default, "make install" no longer attempts to install (or even build) su.
|
|
|
|
To change that, use ./configure --enable-install-program=su.
|
|
|
|
If you also want to install the new "arch" program, do this:
|
|
|
|
./configure --enable-install-program=arch,su.
|
|
|
|
You can inhibit the compilation and installation of selected programs
|
|
|
|
at configure time. For example, to avoid installing "hostname" and
|
|
|
|
"uptime", use ./configure --enable-no-install-program=hostname,uptime
|
|
|
|
Note: currently, "make check" passes, even when arch and su are not
|
|
|
|
built (that's the new default). However, if you inhibit the building
|
|
|
|
and installation of other programs, don't be surprised if some parts
|
|
|
|
of "make check" fail.
|
|
|
|
** Remove deprecated options
|
|
|
|
df no longer accepts the --kilobytes option.
|
|
|
|
du no longer accepts the --kilobytes or --megabytes options.
|
|
|
|
ls no longer accepts the --kilobytes option.
|
|
|
|
ptx longer accepts the --copyright option.
|
|
|
|
who no longer accepts -i or --idle.
|
|
|
|
** Improved robustness
|
|
|
|
ln -f can no longer silently clobber a just-created hard link.
|
|
|
|
In some cases, ln could be seen as being responsible for data loss.
|
|
|
|
For example, given directories a, b, c, and files a/f and b/f, we
|
|
|
|
should be able to do this safely: ln -f a/f b/f c && rm -f a/f b/f
|
|
|
|
However, before this change, ln would succeed, and thus cause the
|
|
|
|
loss of the contents of a/f.
|
|
|
|
stty no longer silently accepts certain invalid hex values
|
|
|
|
in its 35-colon commmand-line argument
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
chmod no longer ignores a dangling symlink. Now, chmod fails
|
|
|
|
with a diagnostic saying that it cannot operate on such a file.
|
|
|
|
[bug introduced in coreutils-5.1.0]
|
|
|
|
cp attempts to read a regular file, even if stat says it is empty.
|
|
|
|
Before, "cp /proc/cpuinfo c" would create an empty file when the kernel
|
|
|
|
reports stat.st_size == 0, while "cat /proc/cpuinfo > c" would "work",
|
|
|
|
and create a nonempty one. [bug introduced in coreutils-6.0]
|
|
|
|
cp --parents no longer mishandles symlinks to directories in file
|
|
|
|
name components in the source, e.g., "cp --parents symlink/a/b d"
|
|
|
|
no longer fails. Also, 'cp' no longer considers a destination
|
|
|
|
symlink to be the same as the referenced file when copying links
|
|
|
|
or making backups. For example, if SYM is a symlink to FILE,
|
|
|
|
"cp -l FILE SYM" now reports an error instead of silently doing
|
|
|
|
nothing. The behavior of 'cp' is now better documented when the
|
|
|
|
destination is a symlink.
|
|
|
|
"cp -i --update older newer" no longer prompts; same for mv
|
|
|
|
"cp -i" now detects read errors on standard input, and no longer consumes
|
|
|
|
too much seekable input; same for ln, install, mv, and rm.
|
|
|
|
cut now diagnoses a range starting with zero (e.g., -f 0-2) as invalid;
|
|
|
|
before, it would treat it as if it started with 1 (-f 1-2).
|
|
|
|
"cut -f 2-0" now fails; before, it was equivalent to "cut -f 2-"
|
|
|
|
cut now diagnoses the '-' in "cut -f -" as an invalid range, rather
|
|
|
|
than interpreting it as the unlimited range, "1-".
|
|
|
|
date -d now accepts strings of the form e.g., 'YYYYMMDD +N days',
|
|
|
|
in addition to the usual 'YYYYMMDD N days'.
|
|
|
|
du -s now includes the size of any stat'able-but-inaccessible directory
|
|
|
|
in the total size.
|
|
|
|
du (without -s) prints whatever it knows of the size of an inaccessible
|
|
|
|
directory. Before, du would print nothing for such a directory.
|
|
|
|
ls -x DIR would sometimes output the wrong string in place of the
|
|
|
|
first entry. [introduced in coreutils-6.8]
|
|
|
|
ls --color would mistakenly color a dangling symlink as if it were
|
|
|
|
a regular symlink. This would happen only when the dangling symlink
|
|
|
|
was not a command-line argument and in a directory with d_type support.
|
|
|
|
[introduced in coreutils-6.0]
|
|
|
|
ls --color, (with a custom LS_COLORS envvar value including the
|
|
|
|
ln=target attribute) would mistakenly output the string "target"
|
|
|
|
before the name of each symlink. [introduced in coreutils-6.0]
|
|
|
|
od's --skip (-j) option now works even when the kernel says that a
|
|
|
|
nonempty regular file has stat.st_size = 0. This happens at least
|
|
|
|
with files in /proc and linux-2.6.22.
|
|
|
|
"od -j L FILE" had a bug: when the number of bytes to skip, L, is exactly
|
|
|
|
the same as the length of FILE, od would skip *no* bytes. When the number
|
|
|
|
of bytes to skip is exactly the sum of the lengths of the first N files,
|
|
|
|
od would skip only the first N-1 files. [introduced in textutils-2.0.9]
|
|
|
|
./printf %.10000000f 1 could get an internal ENOMEM error and generate
|
|
|
|
no output, yet erroneously exit with status 0. Now it diagnoses the error
|
|
|
|
and exits with nonzero status. [present in initial implementation]
|
|
|
|
seq no longer mishandles obvious cases like "seq 0 0.000001 0.000003",
|
|
|
|
so workarounds like "seq 0 0.000001 0.0000031" are no longer needed.
|
|
|
|
seq would mistakenly reject some valid format strings containing %%,
|
|
|
|
and would mistakenly accept some invalid ones. e.g., %g%% and %%g, resp.
|
|
|
|
"seq .1 .1" would mistakenly generate no output on some systems
|
|
|
|
Obsolete sort usage with an invalid ordering-option character, e.g.,
|
|
|
|
"env _POSIX2_VERSION=199209 sort +1x" no longer makes sort free an
|
|
|
|
invalid pointer [introduced in coreutils-6.5]
|
|
|
|
sorting very long lines (relative to the amount of available memory)
|
|
|
|
no longer provokes unaligned memory access
|
|
|
|
split --line-bytes=N (-C N) no longer creates an empty file
|
|
|
|
[this bug is present at least as far back as textutils-1.22 (Jan, 1997)]
|
|
|
|
tr -c no longer aborts when translating with Set2 larger than the
|
|
|
|
complement of Set1. [present in the original version, in 1992]
|
|
|
|
tr no longer rejects an unmatched [:lower:] or [:upper:] in SET1.
|
|
|
|
[present in the original version]

|
|
|
|
the DF_BLOCK_SIZE, BLOCK_SIZE, and BLOCKSIZE environment variables. It
|
|
|
|
is still affected by POSIXLY_CORRECT, though.
|
|

|
|

|
no longer inserts extraneous spaces between output columns.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update to coreutils 6.8.
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
chgrp, chmod, and chown now honor the --preserve-root option.
|
|
|
|
Before, they would warn, yet continuing traversing and operating on /.
|
|
|
|
chmod no longer fails in an environment (e.g., a chroot) with openat
|
|
|
|
support but with insufficient /proc support.
|
|
|
|
"cp --parents F/G D" no longer creates a directory D/F when F is not
|
|
|
|
a directory (and F/G is therefore invalid).
|
|
|
|
"cp --preserve=mode" would create directories that briefly had
|
|
|
|
too-generous permissions in some cases. For example, when copying a
|
|
|
|
directory with permissions 777 the destination directory might
|
|
|
|
temporarily be setgid on some file systems, which would allow other
|
|
|
|
users to create subfiles with the same group as the directory. Fix
|
|
|
|
similar problems with 'install' and 'mv'.
|
|
|
|
cut no longer dumps core for usage like "cut -f2- f1 f2" with two or
|
|
|
|
more file arguments. This was due to a double-free bug, introduced
|
|
|
|
in coreutils-5.3.0.
|
|
|
|
dd bs= operands now silently override any later ibs= and obs=
|
|
|
|
operands, as POSIX and tradition require.
|
|
|
|
"ls -FRL" always follows symbolic links on Linux. Introduced in
|
|
|
|
coreutils-6.0.
|
|
|
|
A cross-partition "mv /etc/passwd ~" (by non-root) now prints
|
|
|
|
a reasonable diagnostic. Before, it would print this:
|
|
|
|
"mv: cannot remove `/etc/passwd': Not a directory".
|
|
|
|
pwd and "readlink -e ." no longer fail unnecessarily when a parent
|
|
|
|
directory is unreadable.
|
|
|
|
"rm -rf /etc/passwd" (run by non-root) now prints a diagnostic.
|
|
|
|
Before it would print nothing.
|
|
|
|
"rm --interactive=never F" no longer prompts for an unwritable F
|
|
|
|
** New features
|
|
|
|
sort's new --compress-program=PROG option specifies a compression
|
|
|
|
program to use when writing and reading temporary files.
|
|
|
|
This can help save both time and disk space when sorting large inputs.
|
|
|
|
** New features
|
|
|
|
sort accepts the new option -C, which acts like -c except no diagnostic
|
|
|
|
is printed. Its --check option now accepts an optional argument, and
|
|
|
|
--check=quiet and --check=silent are now aliases for -C, while
|
|
|
|
--check=diagnose-first is an alias for -c or plain --check.

- Update to coreutils 6.7.
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
When cp -p copied a file with special mode bits set, the same bits
|
|
|
|
were set on the copy even when ownership could not be preserved.
|
|
|
|
This could result in files that were setuid to the wrong user.
|
|
|
|
To fix this, special mode bits are now set in the copy only if its
|
|
|
|
ownership is successfully preserved. Similar problems were fixed
|
|
|
|
with mv when copying across file system boundaries. This problem
|
|
|
|
affects all versions of coreutils through 6.6.
|
|
|
|
cp --preserve=ownership would create output files that temporarily
|
|
|
|
had too-generous permissions in some cases. For example, when
|
|
|
|
copying a file with group A and mode 644 into a group-B sticky
|
|
|
|
directory, the output file was briefly readable by group B.
|
|
|
|
Fix similar problems with cp options like -p that imply
|
|
|
|
--preserve=ownership, with install -d when combined with either -o
|
|
|
|
or -g, and with mv when copying across file system boundaries.
|
|
|
|
This bug affects coreutils 6.0 through 6.6.
|
|
|
|
du --one-file-system (-x) would skip subdirectories of any directory
|
|
|
|
listed as second or subsequent command line argument. This bug affects
|
|
|
|
coreutils-6.4, 6.5 and 6.6.

|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
ls would segfault (dereference a NULL pointer) for a file with a
|
|
|
|
nameless group or owner. This bug was introduced in coreutils-6.5.
|
|
|
|
A bug in the latest official m4/gettext.m4 (from gettext-0.15)
|
|
|
|
made configure fail to detect gettext support, due to the unusual
|
|
|
|
way in which coreutils uses AM_GNU_GETTEXT.
|
|
|
|
** Improved robustness
|
|
|
|
Now, du (and the other fts clients: chmod, chgrp, chown) honor a
|
|
|
|
trailing slash in the name of a symlink-to-directory even on
|
|
|
|
Solaris 9, by working around its buggy fstatat implementation.

** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
du (and the other fts clients: chmod, chgrp, chown) would exit early
|
|
|
|
when encountering an inaccessible directory on a system with native
|
|
|
|
openat support (i.e., linux-2.6.16 or newer along with glibc-2.4
|
|
|
|
or newer). This bug was introduced with the switch to gnulib's
|
|
|
|
openat-based variant of fts, for coreutils-6.0.
|
|

"ln --backup f f" now produces a sensible diagnostic

- Update to coreutils 6.4.
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
chgrp and chown would malfunction when invoked with both -R and -H and
|
|
|
|
with one or more of the following: --preserve-root, --verbose, --changes,
|
|
|
|
--from=o:g (chown only). This bug was introduced with the switch to
|
|
|
|
gnulib's openat-based variant of fts, for coreutils-6.0.
|
|
|
|
cp --backup dir1 dir2, would rename an existing dir2/dir1 to dir2/dir1~.
|
|
|
|
This bug was introduced in coreutils-6.0.
|
|
|
|
With --force (-f), rm no longer fails for ENOTDIR.
|
|
|
|
For example, "rm -f existing-non-directory/anything" now exits
|
|
|
|
successfully, ignoring the error about a nonexistent file.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update to coreutils 6.3.
|
|
|
|
** Improved robustness
|
|
|
|
pinky no longer segfaults on Darwin 7.9.0 (MacOS X 10.3.9) due to a
|
|
|
|
buggy native getaddrinfo function.
|
|
|
|
rm works around a bug in Darwin 7.9.0 (MacOS X 10.3.9) that would
|
|
|
|
sometimes keep it from removing all entries in a directory on an HFS+
|
|
|
|
or NFS-mounted partition.
|
|
|
|
sort would fail to handle very large input (around 40GB) on systems with a
|
|
|
|
mkstemp function that returns a file descriptor limited to 32-bit offsets.
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
chmod would fail unnecessarily in an unusual case: when an initially-
|
|
|
|
inaccessible argument is rendered accessible by chmod's action on a
|
|
|
|
preceding command line argument. This bug also affects chgrp, but
|
|
|
|
it is harder to demonstrate. It does not affect chown. The bug was
|
|
|
|
introduced with the switch from explicit recursion to the use of fts
|
|
|
|
in coreutils-5.1.0 (2003-10-15).
|
|
|
|
cp -i and mv -i occasionally neglected to prompt when the copy or move
|
|
|
|
action was bound to fail. This bug dates back to before fileutils-4.0.
|
|
|
|
With --verbose (-v), cp and mv would sometimes generate no output,
|
|
|
|
or neglect to report file removal.
|
|
|
|
For the "groups" command:
|
|
|
|
"groups" no longer prefixes the output with "user :" unless more
|
|
|
|
than one user is specified; this is for compatibility with BSD.
|
|
|
|
"groups user" now exits nonzero when it gets a write error.
|
|
|
|
"groups" now processes options like --help more compatibly.
|
|
|
|
shuf would infloop, given 8KB or more of piped input
|
|
|
|
** Portability
|
|
|
|
Versions of chmod, chown, chgrp, du, and rm (tools that use openat etc.)
|
|
|
|
compiled for Solaris 8 now also work when run on Solaris 10.

Mon Sep 18 13:13:58 CEST 2006 - schwab@suse.de
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update to coreutils 6.2.
|
|
|
|
** Changes in behavior
|
|
|
|
mkdir -p and install -d (or -D) now use a method that forks a child
|
|
|
|
process if the working directory is unreadable and a later argument
|
|
|
|
uses a relative file name. This avoids some race conditions, but it
|
|
|
|
means you may need to kill two processes to stop these programs.
|
|
|
|
rm now rejects attempts to remove the root directory, e.g., `rm -fr /'
|
|
|
|
now fails without removing anything. Likewise for any file name with
|
|
|
|
a final `./' or `../' component.
|
|
|
|
tail now ignores the -f option if POSIXLY_CORRECT is set, no file
|
|
|
|
operand is given, and standard input is any FIFO; formerly it did
|
|
|
|
this only for pipes.
|
|
|
|
** Infrastructure changes
|
|
|
|
Coreutils now uses gnulib via the gnulib-tool script.
|
|
|
|
If you check the source out from CVS, then follow the instructions
|
|
|
|
in README-cvs. Although this represents a large change to the
|
|
|
|
infrastructure, it should cause no change in how the tools work.
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
cp --backup no longer fails when the last component of a source file
|
|
|
|
name is "." or "..".
|
|
|
|
"ls --color" would highlight other-writable and sticky directories
|
|
|
|
no differently than regular directories on a file system with
|
|
|
|
dirent.d_type support.
|
|
|
|
"mv -T --verbose --backup=t A B" now prints the " (backup: B.~1~)"
|
|
|
|
suffix when A and B are directories as well as when they are not.
|
|
|
|
mv and "cp -r" no longer fail when invoked with two arguments
|
|
|
|
where the first one names a directory and the second name ends in
|
|
|
|
a slash and doesn't exist. E.g., "mv dir B/", for nonexistent B,
|
|
|
|
now succeeds, once more. This bug was introduced in coreutils-5.3.0.

Mon Aug 21 11:32:53 CEST 2006 - schwab@suse.de
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update to coreutils 6.1.
|
|
|
|
** Changes in behavior
|
|
|
|
df now considers BSD "kernfs" file systems to be dummies
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
cp --sparse preserves sparseness at the end of a file, even when
|
|
|
|
the file's apparent size is not a multiple of its block size.
|
|
|
|
[introduced with the original design, in fileutils-4.0r, 2000-04-29]
|
|
|
|
df (with a command line argument) once again prints its header
|
|
|
|
[introduced in coreutils-6.0]
|
|
|

ls -CF would misalign columns in some cases involving non-stat'able files
|

[introduced in coreutils-6.0]

|
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Tue Aug 15 17:50:41 CEST 2006 - schwab@suse.de
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update to coreutils 6.0.
|
|
|
|
** Improved robustness
|
|
|
|
df: if the file system claims to have more available than total blocks,
|
|
|
|
report the number of used blocks as being "total - available"
|
|
|
|
(a negative number) rather than as garbage.
|
|
|
|
dircolors: a new autoconf run-test for AIX's buggy strndup function
|
|
|
|
prevents malfunction on that system; may also affect cut, expand,
|
|
|
|
and unexpand.
|
|
|
|
fts no longer changes the current working directory, so its clients
|
|
|
|
(chmod, chown, chgrp, du) no longer malfunction under extreme conditions.
|
|
|
|
pwd and other programs using lib/getcwd.c work even on file systems
|
|
|
|
where dirent.d_ino values are inconsistent with those from stat.st_ino.
|
|
|
|
rm's core is now reentrant: rm --recursive (-r) now processes
|
|
|
|
hierarchies without changing the working directory at all.
|
|
|
|
** Changes in behavior
|
|
|
|
basename and dirname now treat // as different from / on platforms
|
|
|
|
where the two are distinct.
|
|
|
|
chmod, install, and mkdir now preserve a directory's set-user-ID and
|
|
|
|
set-group-ID bits unless you explicitly request otherwise. E.g.,
|
|
|
|
`chmod 755 DIR' and `chmod u=rwx,go=rx DIR' now preserve DIR's
|
|
|
|
set-user-ID and set-group-ID bits instead of clearing them, and
|
|
|
|
similarly for `mkdir -m 755 DIR' and `mkdir -m u=rwx,go=rx DIR'. To
|
|
|
|
clear the bits, mention them explicitly in a symbolic mode, e.g.,
|
|
|
|
`mkdir -m u=rwx,go=rx,-s DIR'. To set them, mention them explicitly
|
|
|
|
in either a symbolic or a numeric mode, e.g., `mkdir -m 2755 DIR',
|
|
|
|
`mkdir -m u=rwx,go=rx,g+s' DIR. This change is for convenience on
|
|
|
|
systems where these bits inherit from parents. Unfortunately other
|
|
|
|
operating systems are not consistent here, and portable scripts
|
|
|
|
cannot assume the bits are set, cleared, or preserved, even when the
|
|
|
|
bits are explicitly mentioned. For example, OpenBSD 3.9 `mkdir -m
|
|
|
|
777 D' preserves D's setgid bit but `chmod 777 D' clears it.
|
|
|
|
Conversely, Solaris 10 `mkdir -m 777 D', `mkdir -m g-s D', and
|
|
|
|
`chmod 0777 D' all preserve D's setgid bit, and you must use
|
|
|
|
something like `chmod g-s D' to clear it.
|
|
|
|
`cp --link --no-dereference' now works also on systems where the
|
|
|
|
link system call cannot create a hard link to a symbolic link.
|
|
|
|
This change has no effect on systems with a Linux-based kernel.
|
|
|
|
csplit and nl now use POSIX syntax for regular expressions, not
|
|
|
|
Emacs syntax. As a result, character classes like [[:print:]] and
|
|
|
|
interval expressions like A\{1,9\} now have their usual meaning,
|
|
|
|
. no longer matches the null character, and \ must precede the + and
|
|
|
|
? operators.
|
|
|
|
date: a command like date -d '2006-04-23 21 days ago' would print
|
|
|
|
the wrong date in some time zones. (see the test for an example)
|
|
|
|
df now considers "none" and "proc" file systems to be dummies and
|
|
|
|
therefore does not normally display them. Also, inaccessible file
|
|
|
|
systems (which can be caused by shadowed mount points or by chrooted
|
|
|
|
bind mounts) are now dummies, too.
|
|
|
|
expr no longer complains about leading ^ in a regular expression
|
|
|
|
(the anchor is ignored), or about regular expressions like A** (the
|
|
|
|
second "*" is ignored). expr now exits with status 2 (not 3) for
|
|
|
|
errors it detects in the expression's values; exit status 3 is now
|
|
|
|
used only for internal errors (such as integer overflow, which expr
|
|
|
|
now checks for).
|
|
|
|
install and mkdir now implement the X permission symbol correctly,
|
|
|
|
e.g., `mkdir -m a+X dir'; previously the X was ignored.
|
|
|
|
install now creates parent directories with mode u=rwx,go=rx (755)
|
|
|
|
instead of using the mode specified by the -m option; and it does
|
|
|
|
not change the owner or group of parent directories. This is for
|
|
|
|
compatibility with BSD and closes some race conditions.
|
|
|
|
ln now uses different (and we hope clearer) diagnostics when it fails.
|
|
|
|
ln -v now acts more like FreeBSD, so it generates output only when
|
|
|
|
successful and the output is easier to parse.
|
|
|
|
ls now defaults to --time-style='locale', not --time-style='posix-long-iso'.
|
|
|
|
However, the 'locale' time style now behaves like 'posix-long-iso'
|
|
|
|
if your locale settings appear to be messed up. This change
|
|
|
|
attempts to have the default be the best of both worlds.
|
|
|
|
mkfifo and mknod no longer set special mode bits (setuid, setgid,
|
|
|
|
and sticky) with the -m option.
|
|
|
|
nohup's usual diagnostic now more precisely specifies the I/O
|
|
|
|
redirections, e.g., "ignoring input and appending output to
|
|
|
|
nohup.out". Also, nohup now redirects stderr to nohup.out (or
|
|
|
|
$HOME/nohup.out) if stdout is closed and stderr is a tty; this is in
|
|
|
|
response to Open Group XCU ERN 71.
|
|
|
|
rm --interactive now takes an optional argument, although the
|
|
|
|
default of using no argument still acts like -i.
|
|
|
|
rm no longer fails to remove an empty, unreadable directory
|
|
|
|
seq changes:
|
|
|
|
seq defaults to a minimal fixed point format that does not lose
|
|
|
|
information if seq's operands are all fixed point decimal numbers.
|
|
|
|
You no longer need the `-f%.f' in `seq -f%.f 1048575 1024 1050623',
|
|
|
|
for example, since the default format now has the same effect.
|
|
|
|
seq now lets you use %a, %A, %E, %F, and %G formats.
|
|
|
|
seq now uses long double internally rather than double.
|
|
|
|
sort now reports incompatible options (e.g., -i and -n) rather than
|
|
|
|
silently ignoring one of them.
|
|
|
|
stat's --format=FMT option now works the way it did before 5.3.0:
|
|
|
|
FMT is automatically newline terminated. The first stable release
|
|
|
|
containing this change was 5.92.
|
|
|
|
stat accepts the new option --printf=FMT, where FMT is *not*
|
|
|
|
automatically newline terminated.
|
|
|
|
stat: backslash escapes are interpreted in a format string specified
|
|
|
|
via --printf=FMT, but not one specified via --format=FMT. That includes
|
|
|
|
octal (\ooo, at most three octal digits), hexadecimal (\xhh, one or
|
|
|
|
two hex digits), and the standard sequences (\a, \b, \f, \n, \r, \t,
|
|
|
|
\v, \", \\).
|
|
|
|
With no operand, 'tail -f' now silently ignores the '-f' only if
|
|
|
|
standard input is a FIFO or pipe and POSIXLY_CORRECT is set.
|
|
|
|
Formerly, it ignored the '-f' when standard input was a FIFO, pipe,
|
|
|
|
or socket.
|
|
|
|
** Scheduled for removal
|
|
|
|
ptx's --copyright (-C) option is scheduled for removal in 2007, and
|
|
|
|
now evokes a warning. Use --version instead.
|
|
|
|
rm's --directory (-d) option is scheduled for removal in 2006. This
|
|
|
|
option has been silently ignored since coreutils 5.0. On systems
|
|
|
|
that support unlinking of directories, you can use the "unlink"
|
|
|
|
command to unlink a directory.
|
|
|
|
Similarly, we are considering the removal of ln's --directory (-d,
|
|
|
|
-F) option in 2006. Please write to <bug-coreutils@gnu.org> if this
|
|
|
|
would cause a problem for you. On systems that support hard links
|
|
|
|
to directories, you can use the "link" command to create one.
|
|
|
|
** New programs
|
|
|
|
base64: base64 encoding and decoding (RFC 3548) functionality.
|
|
|
|
sha224sum: print or check a SHA224 (224-bit) checksum
|
|
|
|
sha256sum: print or check a SHA256 (256-bit) checksum
|
|
|
|
sha384sum: print or check a SHA384 (384-bit) checksum
|
|
|
|
sha512sum: print or check a SHA512 (512-bit) checksum
|
|
|
|
shuf: Shuffle lines of text.
|
|
|
|
** New features
|
|
|
|
chgrp now supports --preserve-root, --no-preserve-root (default),
|
|
|
|
as it was documented to do, and just as chmod, chown, and rm do.
|
|
|
|
New dd iflag= and oflag= flags:
|
|
|
|
'directory' causes dd to fail unless the file is a directory, on
|
|
|
|
hosts that support this (e.g., Linux kernels, version 2.1.126 and
|
|
|
|
later). This has limited utility but is present for completeness.
|
|
|
|
'noatime' causes dd to read a file without updating its access
|
|
|
|
time, on hosts that support this (e.g., Linux kernels, version
|
|
|
|
2.6.8 and later).
|
|
|
|
'nolinks' causes dd to fail if the file has multiple hard links,
|
|
|
|
on hosts that support this (e.g., Solaris 10 and later).
|
|
|
|
ls accepts the new option --group-directories-first, to make it
|
|
|
|
list directories before files.
|
|
|
|
rm now accepts the -I (--interactive=once) option. This new option
|
|
|
|
prompts once if rm is invoked recursively or if more than three
|
|
|
|
files are being deleted, which is less intrusive than -i prompting
|
|
|
|
for every file, but provides almost the same level of protection
|
|
|
|
against mistakes.
|
|
|
|
shred and sort now accept the --random-source option.
|
|
|
|
sort now accepts the --random-sort (-R) option and `R' ordering option.
|
|
|
|
sort now supports obsolete usages like "sort +1 -2" unless
|
|
|
|
POSIXLY_CORRECT is set. However, when conforming to POSIX
|
|
|
|
1003.1-2001 "sort +1" still sorts the file named "+1".
|
|
|
|
wc accepts a new option --files0-from=FILE, where FILE contains a
|
|
|
|
list of NUL-terminated file names.
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
cat with any of the options, -A -v -e -E -T, when applied to a
|
|
|
|
file in /proc or /sys (linux-specific), would truncate its output,
|
|
|
|
usually printing nothing.
|
|
|
|
cp -p would fail in a /proc-less chroot, on some systems
|
|
|
|
When `cp -RL' encounters the same directory more than once in the
|
|
|
|
hierarchy beneath a single command-line argument, it no longer confuses
|
|
|
|
them with hard-linked directories.
|
|
|
|
fts-using tools (chmod, chown, chgrp, du) no longer fail due to
|
|
|
|
a double-free bug -- it could be triggered by making a directory
|
|
|
|
inaccessible while e.g., du is traversing the hierarchy under it.
|
|
|
|
fts-using tools (chmod, chown, chgrp, du) no longer misinterpret
|
|
|
|
a very long symlink chain as a dangling symlink. Before, such a
|
|
|
|
misinterpretation would cause these tools not to diagnose an ELOOP error.
|
|
|
|
ls --indicator-style=file-type would sometimes stat a symlink
|
|
|
|
unnecessarily.
|
|
|
|
ls --file-type worked like --indicator-style=slash (-p),
|
|
|
|
rather than like --indicator-style=file-type.
|
|
|
|
mv: moving a symlink into the place of an existing non-directory is
|
|
|
|
now done atomically; before, mv would first unlink the destination.
|
|
|
|
mv -T DIR EMPTY_DIR no longer fails unconditionally. Also, mv can
|
|
|
|
now remove an empty destination directory: mkdir -p a b/a; mv a b
|
|
|
|
rm (on systems with openat) can no longer exit before processing
|
|
|
|
all command-line arguments.
|
|
|
|
rm is no longer susceptible to a few low-probability memory leaks.
|
|
|
|
rm -r no longer fails to remove an inaccessible and empty directory
|
|
|
|
rm -r's cycle detection code can no longer be tricked into reporting
|
|
|
|
a false positive (introduced in fileutils-4.1.9).
|
|
|
|
shred --remove FILE no longer segfaults on Gentoo systems
|
|
|
|
sort would fail for large inputs (~50MB) on systems with a buggy
|
|
|
|
mkstemp function. sort and tac now use the replacement mkstemp
|
|
|
|
function, and hence are no longer subject to limitations (of 26 or 32,
|
|
|
|
on the maximum number of files from a given template) on HP-UX 10.20,
|
|
|
|
SunOS 4.1.4, Solaris 2.5.1 and OSF1/Tru64 V4.0F&V5.1.
|
|
|
|
tail -f once again works on a file with the append-only
|
|
|
|
attribute (affects at least Linux ext2, ext3, xfs file systems)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update to coreutils 5.97.
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
rebuild with better autoconf test for when the lstat replacement
|
|
|
|
function is needed -- required for Solaris 9
|
|
|
|
cat with any of the options, -A -v -e -E -T, when applied to a
|
|
|
|
file in /proc or /sys (linux-specific), would truncate its output,
|
|
|
|
usually printing nothing.
|
|
|
|
** Improved robustness
|
|
|
|
dircolors: a new autoconf run-test for AIX's buggy strndup function
|
|
|
|
prevents malfunction on that system; may also affect cut, expand,
|
|
|
|
and unexpand.
|
|
|
|
** New features
|
|
|
|
chgrp now supports --preserve-root, --no-preserve-root (default),
|
|
|
|
as it was documented to do, and just as chmod, chown, and rm do.

never does.
