ls colors oddity

2003-01-12 Thread csj
On my system the colors printed by a simple ls (actually an
alias for ls --color=auto) differ from the colors when the
command is qualified by a file name or wildcard, say, ls -d *
or ls configure.

With either ls -d * or ls configure, the file name
configure is printed out in green. With just ls, configure
is bare black. Is this a bug or the right behavior?

I have no such problem (ls 4.5.2).

It's a reported bug: see http://bugs.debian.org/coreutils (specifically
bugs #175135, #175465, and #176404).

If it hadn't been a reported bug, it would have helped if you'd said
what version of coreutils you were running. :)

Cheers,
