Hello there, I have a backup script running which uses sort in order to process those files first which are modified last. I use find (pruning several paths) as input for afio, here for the filelist:
find / -path /proc -prune -o -path /tmp -prune -o -path /opt -prune -o -path /usr/src -prune -o -path /dev/pts -prune -o -path /dev/shm -prune -o -path /daten/tmp -prune -o -path /daten/backup -prune -o -path /daten/install -prune -o -path /daten/src -prune -o -printf '%p; [EMAIL PROTECTED]' | sort +1 -n -r > /daten/tmp/filelist.txt You can see the result in http://www.kreuzer-it.com/filelist.txt As you will notice, the sort for column +1 does it's job only until line 117452. Afterwards, the files are assorted. My kernel: # uname -r 2.4.20-4GB Hope you can help me, as I don't see how I could update sort. Best regards, Niko Kreuzer _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
