Can you find a complete list of BSD programs that use getbsize, and which contexts they use it in? Here's why I'd like to know the details. OpenBSD 3.2 'ls' treats BLOCKSIZE differently than coreutils-5.2.0 'ls' treats BLOCK_SIZE. The latter affects the st_size column, but the former doesn't. (See below.) So, even if we make BLOCK_SIZE default to BLOCKSIZE, the emulation won't be quite right for "ls". I'm worried that there are other problems in other programs. ----- coreutils 5.2.0 ----- $ BLOCK_SIZE=512 ls -sl total 1072 1072 -rw-rw-r-- 2 eggert eggert 1045 Mar 19 2003 113277-05.zip $ BLOCK_SIZE=1024 ls -sl total 536 536 -rw-rw-r-- 2 eggert eggert 523 Mar 19 2003 113277-05.zip ----- OpenBSD 3.2 ----- $ BLOCKSIZE=512 /bin/ls -sl total 1072 1072 -rw-rw-r-- 2 eggert eggert 534737 Mar 19 2003 113277-05.zip $ BLOCKSIZE=1024 /bin/ls -sl total 536 536 -rw-rw-r-- 2 eggert eggert 534737 Mar 19 2003 113277-05.zip _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
