Bernhard Voelker e62f2bf92f Accepting request 1163997 from home:berny:branches:Base:System 
- Update to 9.5:
  Bug fixes:
  * chmod -R now avoids a race where an attacker may replace a traversed file
    with a symlink, causing chmod to operate on an unintended file.
    [This bug was present in "the beginning".]
  * cp, mv, and install no longer issue spurious diagnostics like "failed
    to preserve ownership" when copying to GNU/Linux CIFS file systems.
    They do this by working around some Linux CIFS bugs.
  * cp --no-preserve=mode will correctly maintain set-group-ID bits
    for created directories.  Previously on systems that didn't support ACLs,
    cp would have reset the set-group-ID bit on created directories.
    [bug introduced in coreutils-8.20]
  * join and uniq now support multi-byte characters better.
    For example, 'join -tX' now works even if X is a multi-byte character,
    and both programs now treat multi-byte characters like U+3000
    IDEOGRAPHIC SPACE as blanks if the current locale treats them so.
  * numfmt options like --suffix no longer have an arbitrary 127-byte limit.
    [bug introduced with numfmt in coreutils-8.21]
  * mktemp with --suffix now better diagnoses templates with too few X's.
    Previously it conflated the insignificant --suffix in the error.
    [bug introduced in coreutils-8.1]
  * sort again handles thousands grouping characters in single-byte locales
    where the grouping character is greater than CHAR_MAX.  For e.g. signed
    character platforms with a 0xA0 (aka &nbsp) grouping character.
    [bug introduced in coreutils-9.1]
  * split --line-bytes with a mixture of very long and short lines
    no longer overwrites the heap (CVE-2024-0684).
    [bug introduced in coreutils-9.2]
  * tail no longer mishandles input from files in /proc and /sys file systems,
    on systems with a page size larger than the stdio BUFSIZ.
    [This bug was present in "the beginning".]
  * timeout avoids a narrow race condition, where it might kill arbitrary
    processes after a failed process fork.
    [bug introduced with timeout in coreutils-7.0]
  * timeout avoids a narrow race condition, where it might fail to
    kill monitored processes immediately after forking them.
    [bug introduced with timeout in coreutils-7.0]
  * wc no longer fails to count unprintable characters as parts of words.
    [bug introduced in textutils-2.1]
  Changes in behavior:
  * base32 and base64 no longer require padding when decoding.
    Previously an error was given for non padded encoded data.
  * base32 and base64 have improved detection of corrupted encodings.
    Previously encodings with non zero padding bits were accepted.
  * basenc --base16 -d now supports lower case hexadecimal characters.
    Previously an error was given for lower case hex digits.
  * cp --no-clobber, and mv -n no longer exit with failure status if
    existing files are encountered in the destination.  Instead they revert
    to the behavior from before v9.2, silently skipping existing files.
  * ls --dired now implies long format output without hyperlinks enabled,
    and will take precedence over previously specified formats or hyperlink
    mode.
  * numfmt will accept lowercase 'k' to indicate Kilo or Kibi units on input,
    and uses lowercase 'k' when outputting such units in '--to=si' mode.
  * pinky no longer tries to canonicalize the user's login location by default,
    rather requiring the new --lookup option to enable this often slow feature.
  * wc no longer ignores encoding errors when counting words.
    Instead, it treats them as non white space.
  New features:
  * chgrp now accepts the --from=OWNER:GROUP option to restrict changes to files
    with matching current OWNER and/or GROUP, as already supported by chown(1).
  * chmod adds support for -h, -H,-L,-P, and --dereference options, providing
    more control over symlink handling.  This supports more secure handling of
    CLI arguments, and is more consistent with chown, and chmod on other
    systems.
  * cp now accepts the --keep-directory-symlink option (like tar), to preserve
    and follow existing symlinks to directories in the destination.
  * cp and mv now accept the --update=none-fail option, which is similar
    to the --no-clobber option, except that existing files are diagnosed,
    and the command exits with failure status if existing files.
    The -n,--no-clobber option is best avoided due to platform differences.
  * env now accepts the -a,--argv0 option to override the zeroth argument
    of the command being executed.
  * mv now accepts an --exchange option, which causes the source and
    destination to be exchanged.  It should be combined with
    --no-target-directory (-T) if the destination is a directory.
    The exchange is atomic if source and destination are on a single
    file system that supports atomic exchange; --exchange is not yet
    supported in other situations.
  * od now supports printing IEEE half precision floating point with -t fH,
    or brain 16 bit floating point with -t fB, where supported by the compiler.
  * tail now supports following multiple processes, with repeated --pid options.
  Improvements:
  * cp,mv,install,cat,split now read and write a minimum of 256KiB at a time.
    This was previously 128KiB and increasing to 256KiB was seen to increase
    throughput by 10-20% when reading cached files on modern systems.
  * env,kill,timeout now support unnamed signals. kill(1) for example now
    supports sending such signals, and env(1) will list them appropriately.
  * SELinux operations in file copy operations are now more efficient,
    avoiding unneeded MCS/MLS label translation.
  * sort no longer dynamically links to libcrypto unless -R is used.
    This decreases startup overhead in the typical case.
  * wc is now much faster in single-byte locales and somewhat faster in
    multi-byte locales.
- coreutils-9.4.split-CVE-2024-0684.patch: Remove now-upstream patch.
- gnulib-readutmp-under-gdm.patch: Likewise.
- gnulib-readutmp.patch: Likewise.
- coreutils-i18n.patch: Remove multi-byte patches for join and uniq, as the
  upstream version now handles those tests.
  Pull in gnulib module mbchar manually, as it is a dependency of mbfile,
  but dropped out of the upstream dependency chain.
- coreutils-misc.patch: Remove change for gnulib-tests/test-isnanl.h.
- coreutils-fix-gnulib-time_r-tests.patch: Add upstream gnulib patch to skip
  French test if TZ='Europe/Paris' does not work.

-@pindex kill
-@cindex send a signal to processes
-
-The @command{kill} command sends a signal to processes, causing them
-to terminate or otherwise act upon receiving the signal in some way.
-Alternatively, it lists information about signals. Synopses:
-
-@example
-kill [-s @var{signal} | --signal @var{signal} | -@var{signal}] @var{pid}@dots{}
-kill [-l | --list | -t | --table] [@var{signal}]@dots{}
-@end example
-
-@mayConflictWithShellBuiltIn{kill}
-
-The first form of the @command{kill} command sends a signal to all
-@var{pid} arguments. The default signal to send if none is specified
-is @samp{TERM}@. The special signal number @samp{0} does not denote a
-valid signal, but can be used to test whether the @var{pid} arguments
-specify processes to which a signal could be sent.
-
-If @var{pid} is positive, the signal is sent to the process with the
-process ID @var{pid}. If @var{pid} is zero, the signal is sent to all
-processes in the process group of the current process. If @var{pid}
-is @minus{}1, the signal is sent to all processes for which the user has
-permission to send a signal. If @var{pid} is less than @minus{}1, the signal
-is sent to all processes in the process group that equals the absolute
-value of @var{pid}.
-
-If @var{pid} is not positive, a system-dependent set of system
-processes is excluded from the list of processes to which the signal
-is sent.
-
-If a negative @var{pid} argument is desired as the first one, it
-should be preceded by @option{--}. However, as a common extension to
-POSIX, @option{--} is not required with @samp{kill
--@var{signal} -@var{pid}}. The following commands are equivalent:
-
-@example
-kill -15 -1
-kill -TERM -1
-kill -s TERM -- -1
-kill -- -1
-@end example
-
-The first form of the @command{kill} command succeeds if every @var{pid}
-argument specifies at least one process that the signal was sent to.
-
-The second form of the @command{kill} command lists signal information.
-Either the @option{-l} or @option{--list} option, or the @option{-t}
-or @option{--table} option must be specified. Without any
-@var{signal} argument, all supported signals are listed. The output
-of @option{-l} or @option{--list} is a list of the signal names, one
-per line; if @var{signal} is already a name, the signal number is
-printed instead. The output of @option{-t} or @option{--table} is a
-table of signal numbers, names, and descriptions. This form of the
-@command{kill} command succeeds if all @var{signal} arguments are valid
-and if there is no output error.
-
-The @command{kill} command also supports the @option{--help} and
-@option{--version} options. @xref{Common options}.
-
-A @var{signal} may be a signal name like @samp{HUP}, or a signal
-number like @samp{1}, or an exit status of a process terminated by the
-signal. A signal name can be given in canonical form or prefixed by
-@samp{SIG}@. The case of the letters is ignored, except for the
-@option{-@var{signal}} option which must use upper case to avoid
-ambiguity with lower case option letters.
-@xref{Signal specifications}, for a list of supported
-signal names and numbers.
