We plan to release coreutils-8.30 in the coming week so any testing you can do on various different systems between now and then would be most welcome.
-------------------------------------- You can download the coreutils snapshot in xz format (5.3 MB) from: https://pixelbeat.org/cu/coreutils-ss.tar.xz And verify with gpg or md5sum with: https://pixelbeat.org/cu/coreutils-ss.tar.xz.sig MD5 (coreutils-ss.tar.xz) = 3ce92d2c8da2842328415dab8d1f4bbc -------------------------------------- To test follow this standard procedure: tar -xf coreutils-ss.tar.xz cd coreutils-8.29.64-1755f/ ./configure && make check VERBOSE=yes Failures are reported and details are in tests/test-suite.log -------------------------------------- Changes since the previous snapshot are: commit 1755ffb7b607c1870ce7e7cbcc867895e0c2c262 Author: Pádraig Brady <[email protected]> Date: Wed Jun 27 01:44:51 2018 -0700 maint: disable overly aggressive sc_gitignore_redundant * cfg.mk (sc_gitignore_redundant): Disabled for now as too aggressive flagging entries like /lib/arg-nonnull.h in a newly checked out repo. commit a68efd128328e14b802032a5c6c585528b6d5b8e Author: Pádraig Brady <[email protected]> Date: Tue Jun 26 23:52:38 2018 -0700 env: adjust diagnostics provided for shebang usage * src/env.c (main): Don't process '-' specially since that causes an issue on the openbsd getopt implementation where a lone '-' is now processed as an option, and anyway it doesn't particuarly help diagnosing common shebang usage issues. Also don't restrict the extra diagnostics for shebang usage to the case with 3 arguments, as further arguments can be passed to a script. * tests/misc/env-S.pl: Adjust accordingly. commit 4b7595d751872442d043f6116a453d3b43b3253d Author: Assaf Gordon <[email protected]> Date: Tue Jun 26 05:04:45 2018 -0600 tests: accept getopt errors without single-quotes On OpenBSD 6.2, invalid single options produce error messages without single quotes: $ ./src/chroot -/ chroot: unknown option -- / As opposed to other systems: ./src/chroot: invalid option -- '/' Modify the grep search to accept this. * tests/misc/usage_vs_getopt.sh (checkprg): Change the grep pattern to accomodate no-single-quotes cases. commit d542945c3a8198096fc018f56c2ff7338e1405c7 Author: Pádraig Brady <[email protected]> Date: Tue Jun 26 00:43:00 2018 -0700 tests: fix false failures when perl not available * tests/local.mk: Reference the stub that skips perl tests, with the correct path. commit 6d6095f33a108493e76daa8221a08bb403a3ea7d Author: Pádraig Brady <[email protected]> Date: Tue Jun 26 00:39:48 2018 -0700 tests: fix false failure with limited shebang lines * tests/misc/env-S-script.sh: Provide a wrapper to emulate shebang processing, but without length limits, which are 127 on Linux for example. commit 91d78a570ffee4eeb87b8030690c39de99748239 Author: Pádraig Brady <[email protected]> Date: Wed Jun 27 00:48:03 2018 -0700 maint: update gnulib to latest * gnulib: Update to latest, which incorporates a thread linking fix from Bruno Haible, which was seen on newer Ubuntu systems. commit 3e5dcddba7466d5d594cd39cc0b543224a7def4a Author: Assaf Gordon <[email protected]> Date: Tue Jun 26 12:59:11 2018 -0600 tests: remove unused Data::Dumper perl module The module is not needed anymore (was used during development). Despite being a Perl core module, platforms like CentOS don't install it by default. Reported by Bruno Haible at https://lists.gnu.org/r/coreutils/2018-06/msg00093.html. * tests/misc/csplit-suppress-matched.pl: Remove Data::Dumper. thanks, Pádraig
