- 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. - Bring german message catalog up to date. - Include upstream fix for du. - Include upstream patch fixing basename documentation.

- 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. For a detaild list se NEWS in the documentation. - Add up-to-date german translation. - 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".
