Package: coreutils Version: 5.2.1-2 Severity: minor The size display of ls -h currently uses "K" to mean "kilo":
| -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 75K 2004-07-16 13:37 /bin/ls However, the correct abbriviation for "kilo" is a lower case "k". It almost looks like it's using "K" as an abbreviation for "Ki" (kibi), as a lowercase "k" is used when --si is specified: | -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 76k 2004-07-16 13:37 /bin/ls That is even more confusing, as the other abbrivations (M, G, T, etc), do not change when --si is specified. Please consider using the correct abbriviations everywhere (i.e. Ki, Mi, etc without --si, k, M, G with --si), like (for example) ifconfig does nowadays. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-2-386 Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages coreutils depends on: ii libacl1 2.2.23-1 Access control list shared library ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
