In that case, I suggest you download coreutils sources and build your own binaries, since the ones you downloaded obviously don't work properly. If you have the xz program (from the xz-utils package), do this: wget ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/coreutils/coreutils-8.7.tar.xz wget ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/coreutils/coreutils-8.7.tar.xz.sig gpg --verify coreutils-8.7.tar.xz.sig && xz -dc coreutils-8.7.tar.xz | tar xf - && (cd coreutils-8.7 && ./configure && make && make -k check ) >& log Otherwise, do this: wget ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/coreutils/coreutils-8.7.tar.gz wget ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/coreutils/coreutils-8.7.tar.gz.sig gpg --verify coreutils-8.7.tar.gz.sig && gzip -dc coreutils-8.7.tar.gz | tar xf - && (cd coreutils-8.7 && ./configure && make && make -k check ) >& log
