* Sun Sep 17 2023 Bernhard Voelker <mail@bernhard-voelker.de>
- gnulib-readutmp-under-gdm.patch: Add upstream gnulib patch to fix crash
of who/uptime when gdm is in use. [bsc#1215361]
- gnulib-readutmp.patch: Update with upstream patch.
* Thu Aug 31 2023 Thorsten Kukuk <kukuk@suse.com>
- Update to 9.4:
Bug fixes:
* b2sum --check will no longer read unallocated memory when
presented with malformed checksum lines.
[bug introduced in coreutils-9.2]
* cp --parents again succeeds when preserving mode for absolute directories.
Previously it would have failed with a "No such file or directory" error.
[bug introduced in coreutils-9.1]
* cp --sparse=never will avoid copy-on-write (reflinking) and copy offloading,
to ensure no holes present in the destination copy.
[bug introduced in coreutils-9.0]
* cksum again diagnoses read errors in its default CRC32 mode.
[bug introduced in coreutils-9.0]
* cksum --check now ensures filenames with a leading backslash character
are escaped appropriately in the status output.
This also applies to the standalone checksumming utilities.
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.25]
* dd again supports more than two multipliers for numbers.
Previously numbers of the form '1024x1024x32' gave "invalid number" errors.
[bug introduced in coreutils-9.1]
* factor, numfmt, and tsort now diagnose read errors on the input.
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
* install --strip now supports installing to files with a leading hyphen.
Previously such file names would have caused the strip process to fail.
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
* ls now shows symlinks specified on the command line that can't be traversed.
Previously a "Too many levels of symbolic links" diagnostic was given.
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
* pr --length=1 --double-space no longer enters an infinite loop.
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
* tac now handles short reads on its input. Previously it may have exited
erroneously, especially with large input files with no separators.
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
* uptime no longer incorrectly prints "0 users" on OpenBSD,
and is being built again on FreeBSD and Haiku.
[bugs introduced in coreutils-9.2]
* wc -l and cksum no longer crash with an "Illegal instruction" error
on x86 Linux kernels that disable XSAVE YMM. This was seen on Xen VMs.
[bug introduced in coreutils-9.0]
Changes in behavior:
* cp -v and mv -v will no longer output a message for each file skipped
due to -i, or -u. Instead they only output this information with --debug.
I.e., 'cp -u -v' etc. will have the same verbosity as before coreutils-9.3.
* cksum -b no longer prints base64-encoded checksums. Rather that
short option is reserved to better support emulation of the standalone
checksum utilities with cksum.
* mv dir x now complains differently if x/dir is a nonempty directory.
Previously it said "mv: cannot move 'dir' to 'x/dir': Directory not empty",
where it was unclear whether 'dir' or 'x/dir' was the problem.
Now it says "mv: cannot overwrite 'x/dir': Directory not empty".
Similarly for other renames where the destination must be the problem.
[problem introduced in coreutils-6.0]
- Enable systemd-logind support
- Add gnulib-readutmp.patch: Fix seg.fault of who, pinky, uptime [dgo#65617]
- Create -systemd flavor with binaries linked against libsystemd
- Drop coreutils-invalid-ids.patch to get consistent behavior, most tools
where already removed from that patch.
- coreutils-misc.patch: adjust paths
- coreutils-skip-some-sort-tests-on-ppc.patch: adjust paths
- coreutils-test_without_valgrind.patch: adjust paths
- coreutils-i18n.patch: update from Fedora
* Thu Apr 20 2023 Bernhard Voelker <mail@bernhard-voelker.de>
- update to 9.3:
Bug fixes:
* cp --reflink=auto (the default), mv, and install
will again fall back to a standard copy in more cases.
Previously copies could fail with permission errors on
more restricted systems like android or containers etc.
[bug introduced in coreutils-9.2]
* cp --recursive --backup will again operate correctly.
Previousy it may have issued "File exists" errors when
it failed to appropriately rename files being replaced.
[bug introduced in coreutils-9.2]
* date --file and dircolors will now diagnose a failure to read a file.
Previously they would have silently ignored the failure.
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
* md5sum --check again correctly prints the status of each file checked.
Previously the status for files was printed as 'OK' once any file had passed.
This also applies to cksum, sha*sum, and b2sum.
[bug introduced in coreutils-9.2]
* wc will now diagnose if any total counts have overflowed.
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
* `wc -c` will again correctly update the read offset of inputs.
Previously it deduced the size of inputs while leaving the offset unchanged.
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.27]
* Coreutils programs no longer fail for timestamps past the year 2038
on obsolete configurations with 32-bit signed time_t, because the
build procedure now rejects these configurations.
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
Changes in behavior:
* 'cp -n' and 'mv -n' now issue an error diagnostic if skipping a file,
to correspond with -n inducing a nonzero exit status as of coreutils 9.2.
Similarly 'cp -v' and 'mv -v' will output a message for each file skipped
due to -n, -i, or -u.
New features:
* cp and mv now support --update=none to always skip existing files
in the destination, while not affecting the exit status.
This is equivalent to the --no-clobber behavior from before v9.2.
- drop fix-reflink-fallback.patch (upstream).
* Thu Apr 06 2023 Dirk Müller <dmueller@suse.com>
- add fix-reflink-fallback.patch (bsc#1210033)
* Tue Mar 21 2023 Dirk Müller <dmueller@suse.com>
- update to 9.2:
* cksum now accepts the --base64 (-b) option to print
base64-encoded checksums. It also accepts/checks such
checksums.
* cksum now accepts the --raw option to output a raw binary
checksum. No file name or other information is output in
this mode.
* cp, mv, and install now accept the --debug option to
print details on how a file is being copied.
* factor now accepts the --exponents (-h) option to print
factors in the form p^e, rather than repeating the prime p, e
times.
* ls now supports the --time=modification option, to explicitly
select the default mtime timestamp for display and sorting.
* mv now supports the --no-copy option, which causes it to fail
when asked to move a file to a different file system.
* split now accepts options like '-n SIZE' that exceed machine
integer range, when they can be implemented as if they were
infinity.
* split -n now accepts piped input even when not in round-robin
mode, by first copying input to a temporary file to determine its
size.
* wc now accepts the --total={auto,never,always,only} option
to give explicit control over when the total is output.
* 'cp --reflink=always A B' no longer leaves behind a newly
created empty file B merely because copy-on-write clones are not
supported.
* 'cp -n' and 'mv -n' now exit with nonzero status if they skip
their action because the destination exists, and likewise for 'cp
- i', 'ln -i', and 'mv -i' when the user declines. (POSIX
specifies this for 'cp -i' and 'mv -i'.)
* cp, mv, and install again read in multiples of the reported
block size, to support unusual devices that may have this
constraint.
* du --apparent now counts apparent sizes only of regular files
and symbolic links. POSIX does not specify the meaning of
apparent sizes (i.e., st_size) for other file types, and
counting those sizes could cause confusing and unwanted size
mismatches.
* 'ls -v' and 'sort -V' go back to sorting ".0" before ".A",
reverting to the behavior in coreutils-9.0 and earlier.
This behavior is now documented.
* ls --color now matches a file extension case sensitively
if there are different sequences defined for separate cases.
* printf unicode \uNNNN, \UNNNNNNNN syntax, now supports all
valid unicode code points. Previously is was restricted to
the C universal character subset, which restricted most points <=
0x9F.
* runcon now exits with status 125 for internal errors.
Previously upon internal errors it would exit with status 1,
which was less distinguishable
from errors from the invoked command.
* 'split -n N' now splits more evenly when the input size is
not a multiple of N, by creating N output files whose sizes
differ by at most 1 byte. Formerly, it did this only when
the input size was less than N.
* 'stat -c %s' now prints sizes as unsigned, consistent with
'ls'.
* a long list of bugfixes, see included NEWS file for details
- drop gnulib-simple-backup-fix.patch (upstream)
- drop coreutils-tests-workaround-make-fdleak.patch (obsolete)
* Mon Sep 26 2022 Bernhard Voelker <mail@bernhard-voelker.de>
- coreutils-tests-workaround-make-fdleak.patch: Add patch to work around
a GNU make bug which leaks file descriptors when using the jobserver;
this makes some tests fail.
- coreutils.spec: Reference the patch.
* Tue Aug 09 2022 Dirk Müller <dmueller@suse.com>
- refresh coreutils-i18n.patch from Fedora to make expand and unexpand
more similar
* Mon Aug 08 2022 Stephan Kulow <coolo@suse.com>
- Remove python2 from buildrequires - appears to be a left over
* Tue Aug 02 2022 Dirk Müller <dmueller@suse.com>
- add missing hostname buildrequires
* Mon Aug 01 2022 Dirk Müller <dmueller@suse.com>
- refresh coreutils-i18n.patch to prevent unexpand from failing on control
characters (brc#2112870) (bsc#1202029)
- extend psuffix handling to be quilt(1) compatible
* Tue Apr 26 2022 Dirk Müller <dmueller@suse.com>
- remove builddisabled conditions for rings - will be done now as
BuildFlags: excludebuilds
* Sun Apr 24 2022 Bernhard Voelker <mail@bernhard-voelker.de>
- gnulib-simple-backup-fix.patch: Add patch to make simple backups in correct
directory; broken in 9.1. See https://bugs.gnu.org/55029
* Thu Apr 21 2022 Dirk Müller <dmueller@suse.com>
- update to 9.1:
* chmod -R no longer exits with error status when encountering symlinks.
All files would be processed correctly, but the exit status was incorrect.
* If 'cp -Z A B' checks B's status and some other process then removes B,
cp no longer creates B with a too-generous SELinux security context
before adjusting it to the correct value.
* 'cp --preserve=ownership A B' no longer ignores the umask when creating B.
Also, 'cp --preserve-xattr A B' is less likely to temporarily chmod u+w B.
* 'id xyz' now uses the name 'xyz' to determine groups, instead of xyz's uid.
* 'ls -v' and 'sort -V' no longer mishandle corner cases like "a..a" vs "a.+"
or lines containing NULs. Their behavior now matches the documentation
for file names like ".m4" that consist entirely of an extension,
and the documentation has been clarified for unusual cases.
* 'mv -T --backup=numbered A B/' no longer miscalculates the backup number
for B when A is a directory, possibly inflooping.
* cat now uses the copy_file_range syscall if available, when doing
simple copies between regular files. This may be more efficient, by avoiding
user space copies, and possibly employing copy offloading or reflinking.
* chown and chroot now warn about usages like "chown root.root f",
which have the nonstandard and long-obsolete "." separator that
causes problems on platforms where user names contain ".".
Applications should use ":" instead of ".".
* cksum no longer allows abbreviated algorithm names,
so that forward compatibility and robustness is improved.
* date +'%-N' now suppresses excess trailing digits, instead of always
padding them with zeros to 9 digits. It uses clock_getres and
clock_gettime to infer the clock resolution.
* dd conv=fsync now synchronizes output even after a write error,
and similarly for dd conv=fdatasync.
* dd now counts bytes instead of blocks if a block count ends in "B".
For example, 'dd count=100KiB' now copies 100 KiB of data, not
102,400 blocks of data. The flags count_bytes, skip_bytes and
seek_bytes are therefore obsolescent and are no longer documented,
though they still work.
* ls no longer colors files with capabilities by default, as file-based
capabilties are very rarely used, and lookup increases processing per file by
about 30%. It's best to use getcap [-r] to identify files with capabilities.
* ls no longer tries to automount files, reverting to the behavior
before the statx() call was introduced in coreutils-8.32.
* stat no longer tries to automount files by default, reverting to the
behavior before the statx() call was introduced in coreutils-8.32.
Only `stat --cached=never` will continue to automount files.
* timeout --foreground --kill-after=... will now exit with status 137
if the kill signal was sent, which is consistent with the behavior
when the --foreground option is not specified. This allows users to
distinguish if the command was more forcefully terminated.
* dd now supports the aliases iseek=N for skip=N, and oseek=N for seek=N,
like FreeBSD and other operating systems.
* dircolors takes a new --print-ls-colors option to display LS_COLORS
entries, on separate lines, colored according to the entry color code.
* dircolors will now also match COLORTERM in addition to TERM environment
variables. The default config will apply colors with any COLORTERM set.
* cp, mv, and install now use openat-like syscalls when copying to a directory.
* This avoids some race conditions and should be more efficient.
* The new 'date' option --resolution outputs the timestamp resolution.
* With conv=fdatasync or conv=fsync, dd status=progress now reports
any extra final progress just before synchronizing output data,
since synchronizing can take a long time.
* printf now supports printing the numeric value of multi-byte characters.
* sort --debug now diagnoses issues with --field-separator characters
that conflict with characters possibly used in numbers.
* 'tail -f file | filter' now exits on Solaris when filter exits.
* root invoked coreutils, that are built and run in single binary mode,
now adjust /proc/$pid/cmdline to be more specific to the utility
being run, rather than using the general "coreutils" binary name.
- coreutils-i18n.patch: Re-sync the patch with Fedora.
- drop coreutils-chmod-fix-exit-status-ign-symlinks.patch (upstream)
* Mon Oct 04 2021 Bernhard Voelker <mail@bernhard-voelker.de>
- coreutils-i18n.patch: Re-sync the patch with Fedora.
Refresh the patch, adding a hunk to link the expand+unexpand tools
against lib/mbfile.c, thus fixing build problems with clang
(see https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/coreutils/c/f4a53e34).
* Fri Oct 01 2021 Dirk Müller <dmueller@suse.com>
- spec file cleanups (spec-cleaner run)
* Thu Sep 30 2021 Bernhard Voelker <mail@bernhard-voelker.de>
- coreutils-skip-tests-rm-ext3-perf.patch: Add patch to skip the test
'tests/rm/ext3-perf.sh' temporarily as it hangs on OBS.
* Sun Sep 26 2021 Bernhard Voelker <mail@bernhard-voelker.de>
- Update to 9.0:
* Noteworthy changes in release 9.0 (2021-09-24) [stable]
* * Bug fixes
chmod -v no longer misreports modes of dangling symlinks.
[bug introduced in coreutils-5.3.0]
cp -a --attributes-only now never removes destination files,
even if the destination files are hardlinked, or the source
is a non regular file.
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.6]
csplit --suppress-matched now elides the last matched line
when a specific number of pattern matches are performed.
[bug introduced with the --suppress-matched feature in coreutils-8.22]
df no longer outputs duplicate remote mounts in the presence of bind mounts.
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.26]
df no longer mishandles command-line args that it pre-mounts
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.29]
du no longer crashes on XFS file systems when the directory hierarchy is
heavily changed during the run.
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.25]
env -S no longer crashes when given unusual whitespace characters
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.30]
expr no longer mishandles unmatched \(...\) in regular expressions.
[bug introduced in coreutils-6.0]
ls no longer crashes when printing the SELinux context for unstatable files.
[bug introduced in coreutils-6.9.91]
mkdir -m no longer mishandles modes more generous than the umask.
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.22]
nl now handles single character --section-delimiter arguments,
by assuming a second ':' character has been specified, as specified by POSIX.
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
pr again adjusts tabs in input, to maintain alignment in multi column output.
[bug introduced in coreutils-6.9]
rm no longer skips an extra file when the removal of an empty directory fails.
[bug introduced by the rewrite to use fts in coreutils-8.0]
split --number=K/N will again correctly split chunk K of N to stdout.
Previously a chunk starting after 128KiB, output the wrong part of the file.
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.26]
tail -f no longer overruns a stack buffer when given too many files
to follow and ulimit -n exceeds 1024.
[bug introduced in coreutils-7.5]
tr no longer crashes when using --complement with certain
invalid combinations of case character classes.
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.6]
basenc --base64 --decode no longer silently discards decoded characters
on (1024*5) buffer boundaries
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.31]
* * Changes in behavior
cp and install now default to copy-on-write (COW) if available.
cp, install and mv now use the copy_file_range syscall if available.
Also, they use lseek+SEEK_HOLE rather than ioctl+FS_IOC_FIEMAP on sparse
files, as lseek is simpler and more portable.
On GNU/Linux systems, ls no longer issues an error message on a
directory merely because it was removed. This reverts a change
that was made in release 8.32.
ptx -T no longer attempts to substitute old-fashioned TeX escapes
for 8-bit non-ASCII alphabetic characters. TeX indexes should
instead use '\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}' or equivalent.
stat will use decomposed (major,minor) device numbers in its default format.
This is less ambiguous, and more consistent with ls.
sum [-r] will output a file name, even if only a single name is passed.
This is consistent with sum -s, cksum, and other sum(1) implementations.
* * New Features
cksum now supports the -a (--algorithm) option to select any
of the existing sum, md5sum, b2sum, sha*sum implementations etc.
cksum now subsumes all of these programs, and coreutils
will introduce no future standalone checksum utility.
cksum -a now supports the 'sm3' argument, to use the SM3 digest algorithm.
cksum --check now supports auto detecting the digest type to use,
when verifying tagged format checksums.
expr and factor now support bignums on all platforms.
ls --classify now supports the "always", "auto", or "never" flags,
to support only outputting classifier characters if connected to a tty.
ls now accepts the --sort=width option, to sort by file name width.
This is useful to more compactly organize the default vertical column output.
ls now accepts the --zero option, to terminate each output line with
NUL instead of newline.
nl --line-increment can now take a negative number to decrement the count.
stat supports more formats for representing decomposed device numbers.
%Hd,%Ld and %Hr,%Lr will output major,minor device numbers and device types
respectively. %d corresponds to st_dev and %r to std_rdev.
* * Improvements
cat --show-ends will now show \r\n as ^M$. Previously the \r was taken
literally, thus overwriting the first character in the line with '$'.
cksum [-a crc] is now up to 4 times faster by using a slice by 8 algorithm,
and at least 8 times faster where pclmul instructions are supported.
A new --debug option will indicate if pclmul is being used.
md5sum --check now supports checksum files with CRLF line endings.
This also applies to cksum, sha*sum, and b2sum.
df now recognizes these file systems as remote:
acfs, coda, fhgfs, gpfs, ibrix, ocfs2, and vxfs.
rmdir now clarifies the error if a symlink_to_dir/ has not been traversed.
This is the case on GNU/Linux systems, where the trailing slash is ignored.
stat and tail now know about the "devmem", "exfat", "secretmem", "vboxsf",
and "zonefs" file system types. stat -f -c%T now reports the file system
type, and tail -f uses polling for "vboxsf" and inotify for the others.
timeout now supports sub-second timeouts on macOS.
wc is up to 5 times faster when counting only new line characters,
where avx2 instructions are supported.
A new --debug option will indicate if avx2 is being used.

* * Bug fixes
cp now copies /dev/fd/N correctly on platforms like Solaris where
it is a character-special file whose minor device number is N.
[bug introduced in fileutils-4.1.6]
dd conv=fdatasync no longer reports a "Bad file descriptor" error
when fdatasync is interrupted, and dd now retries interrupted calls
to close, fdatasync, fstat and fsync instead of incorrectly
reporting an "Interrupted system call" error.
[bugs introduced in coreutils-6.0]
df now correctly parses the /proc/self/mountinfo file for unusual entries
like ones with '\r' in a field value ("mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /foo$'\r'bar"),
when the source field is empty ('mount -t tmpfs "" /mnt'), and when the
filesystem type contains characters like a blank which need escaping.
[bugs introduced in coreutils-8.24 with the introduction of reading
the /proc/self/mountinfo file]
factor again outputs immediately when stdout is a tty but stdin is not.
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.24]
ln works again on old systems without O_DIRECTORY support (like Solaris 10),
and on systems where symlink ("x", ".") fails with errno == EINVAL
(like Solaris 10 and Solaris 11).
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.31]
rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty now works correctly for directories
that fail to be removed due to permission issues. Previously the exit status
was reversed, failing for non empty and succeeding for empty directories.
[bug introduced in coreutils-6.11]
'shuf -r -n 0 file' no longer mistakenly reads from standard input.
[bug introduced with the --repeat feature in coreutils-8.22]
split no longer reports a "output file suffixes exhausted" error
when the specified number of files is evenly divisible by 10, 16, 26,
for --numeric, --hex, or default alphabetic suffixes respectively.
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.24]
seq no longer prints an extra line under certain circumstances (such as
'seq -f "%g " 1000000 1000000').
[bug introduced in coreutils-6.10]
* * Changes in behavior
Several programs now check that numbers end properly. For example,
'du -d 1x' now reports an error instead of silently ignoring the 'x'.
Affected programs and options include du -d, expr's numeric operands
on non-GMP builds, install -g and -o, ls's TABSIZE environment
variable, mknod b and c, ptx -g and -w, shuf -n, and sort --batch-size
and --parallel.
date now parses military time zones in accordance with common usage:
"A" to "M" are equivalent to UTC+1 to UTC+12
"N" to "Y" are equivalent to UTC-1 to UTC-12
"Z" is "zulu" time (UTC).
For example, 'date -d "09:00B" is now equivalent to 9am in UTC+2 time zone.
Previously, military time zones were parsed according to the obsolete
rfc822, with their value negated (e.g., "B" was equivalent to UTC-2).
[The old behavior was introduced in sh-utils 2.0.15 ca. 1999, predating
coreutils package.]
ls issues an error message on a removed directory, on GNU/Linux systems.
Previously no error and no entries were output, and so indistinguishable
from an empty directory, with default ls options.
uniq no longer uses strcoll() to determine string equivalence,
and so will operate more efficiently and consistently.
* * New Features
ls now supports the --time=birth option to display and sort by
file creation time, where available.
od --skip-bytes now can use lseek even if the input is not a regular
file, greatly improving performance in some cases.
stat(1) supports a new --cached= option, used on systems with statx(2)
to control cache coherency of file system attributes,
useful on network file systems.
* * Improvements
stat and ls now use the statx() system call where available, which can
operate more efficiently by only retrieving requested attributes.
stat and tail now know about the "binderfs", "dma-buf-fs", "erofs",
"ppc-cmm-fs", and "z3fold" file systems.
stat -f -c%T now reports the file system type, and tail -f uses inotify.
