- 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
following partial patches:
coreutils-8.6-compile-su-with-fpie.diff,
coreutils-8.6-honor-settings-in-etc-default-su-resp-etc-login.defs.diff,
coreutils-8.6-log-all-su-attempts.diff,
coreutils-8.6-make-sure-sbin-resp-usr-sbin-are-in-PATH.diff,
coreutils-8.6-pam-support-for-su.diff,
coreutils-8.6-set-sane-default-path.diff,
coreutils-8.6-update-man-page-for-pam.diff,
coreutils-bnc#697897-setsid.patch.
* 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.
- Remove now-obsolete patches and files:
* coreutils-8.17.de.po.xz:
* coreutils-8.17.tar.xz:
Remove sources + translation of previous version
* coreutils-acl-nofollow.patch:
* coreutils-basename_documentation.patch:
* coreutils-cp-corrupt-fragmented-sparse.patch:
* coreutils-df-always-hide-rootfs.patch:
* coreutils-skip-du-slink-test.patch:
Fixed upstream.
* coreutils-getaddrinfo.patch:
* coreutils-misc.patch:
* coreutils-no_silent-rule.patch:
Remove test and build related patches.
* coreutils-ptr_int_casts.patch:
Remove because merged into coreutils-i18n.patch.
- Add files:
* coreutils-8.21.tar.xz:
Add tarball of the new upstream version
* coreutils-8.21.de.po.xz:
Add language file.
- Update patches:
* coreutils-i18n.patch
Merge some Fedora changes to keep the i18n patch like theirs.
Fix and cleanup sort's multibyte test with incorporated test data.
* 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
- Temporary disable some questionable patches (by commenting in the spec file):
* coreutils-gl_printf_safe.patch
* coreutils-8.9-singlethreaded-sort.patch
- Change build / spec file:
* Bump version from 8.17 to 8.21.
* Fix macro invocation in "Provides" for stat.
* Remove ancient "Obsoletes" entries.
* Remove/add the above removed/added sources and patches.
* Temporarily comment the code for statically linking LIB_GMP
(as it does not work).
* Remove -Wall from CFLAGS as it is already included in OBS' default options.
* Remove the --without-included-regex option to use
coreutils' regex implementation.
* Remove custom gl_cv_func_printf_directive_n and gl_cv_func_isnanl_works.
* Touch "man/*.x" to force the rebuild of the man pages.
* Make sort's multi-byte test script executable in %check section.
* Hardcode package name for "%find_lang" and "%files lang -f" lines.
* In the %files section, add the COPYING and THANKS files.
Furthermore, fix the path to the LC_TIME files.
* Change package description to accomodate to added programs
(hostid, nproc, realpath, stdbuf, truncate)
and mention the hacky installation of programs to move (kill, su).
- 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]
