Hi Pádraig,
Thank you for the help. I tryed to update but seem that this fedora i18n
bug is still affecting rawhide. I ended up changing cut for awk to not
depend on fedora i18n patches that broke coreutils and go ahead with my
tasks. I will send an email to fedora bug mailing list asking to fix
The -a and -o operators of test(1) have been marked obsolescent for a
while now; see link below. However, while the HTML manual is updated,
the current man page, still my primary source of reference, is missing a
hint to that:

POSIX recommends avoiding -a and -o, for good reason.
src/test.c (usage): Mention that inherent ambiguities exist with
binary -a and -o.
