fwiw, coreutils 6.7 behaves correctly in this regard. It's marked ~ on 
most arches but works fine here on x86

[gentoo-user] 'du' problem after emerge of coreutils

2007-02-02 Thread Rod May

Hi

emerged coreutils up to 6.4 and the '-x' option on du seems broken, 
e.g.:

root  du --version
du (GNU coreutils) 5.94

root  du -s -x DVBig Docs.bak Gimp.bak
16730112  DVBig
1935776   Docs.bak
1227584   Gimp.bak

so all correct with the old version, these are three simple directories 
on the one file system. Now emerge to coreutils 6.4...

root   du --version
du (GNU coreutils) 6.4
   
root   du -s -x DVBig Docs.bak Gimp.bak
16730112   DVBig
32 Docs.bak
32 Gimp.bak

so it seems that for the second and any subsequent arguments treated as 
on a different file system... eg if I swap the arguments order:

root   du -s -x Docs.bak DVBig Gimp.bak
1935776 Docs.bak
32  DVBig
32  Gimp.bak
   
if the -x is not used then the output is correct, (same as 5.94)...

thought I would ask here first as I also upgraded most sys related 
packages just before coreutils..

anyone else get this?
 
  Cheers :)
