It's a dumb little GNU program that makes sure filenames fit 8.3 rules, and other such noisome restrictions. > from (special source) [[ Is this the one in > bsdmainutils??? ]] I don't think so. It's a never-released GNU program; the source is /gd/gnu/from at GNU Central. It has several nice features, and should find its way into some GNU distribution eventually. > gdb NEEDED 4.17 (gdb-gnu-5 special!) > [[ which special > source?? ]] GNU 0.2 was released before the Mach and Hurd patches to gdb had been fully merged. As of 4.17, they are supposed to be fully merged. > sendmail NEEDED 8.8.5 sendmail [ with > special! patch ] > [[ WHAT IS THIS SPECIAL > PATCH? -MB ]] See ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-0.2/src/sendmail.patch. Perhaps these should be synced with Eric Allman. > termutils not 2.0 [[ What does it > contain? ]] It's a standard GNU distribution, containing tput and tabs. Thomas
