Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: coreutils
Coreutils does not handle files larger than 2 gigs. This caused dd to
be unable to seek to the end of my hard disk to read out the last few
sectors, instead it resorted to reading the entire disk start to finish.
I believe that the CFLAGS needs -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 to enable 64 bit
off_t support, however when I tried adding this myself, my gcc in
pbuilder crashed.
** Affects: coreutils (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
