2008-04-27tests: move another file (expensive) into test-lib.shJim Meyering
* tests/expensive: Remove file. Move contents into ... * tests/test-lib.sh (expensive_): ...here. New function. * tests/du/fd-leak: Update caller to use the new function. * tests/mv/leak-fd: Likewise. * tests/rm/hash: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/big-4gb: Likewise. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove its name.
2008-04-27tests: cp/perm (usually not run) was failing on systems with SELinuxJim Meyering
* tests/cp/perm: Use stat to get the permission string, not ls. This test was run only when RUN_VERY_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes was set in the environment. It would fail on SELinux-enable systems because ls-generated permission strings would not match, e.g., "test _-rw-r--r--+ = _-rw-r--r--" would fail.
2008-04-27tweak HACKING adviceJim Meyering
2008-04-24tests: do define built_programsJim Meyering
* tests/check.mk (built_programs): Define here, where it's used. This definition was in now-removed tests/misc/Makefile.am.
2008-04-23tests: update commented-out examples in sample-test, tooJim Meyering
* tests/sample-test: Use $top_srcdir/tests/SCRIPT_NAME, not $top_srcdir/../SCRIPT_NAME here, too.
2008-04-23tests: don't fail in a non-English localeOndřej Vašík
* tests/chmod/thru-dangling: Source lang-default. * tests/cp/thru-dangling: Likewise. * tests/misc/printf-surprise: Likewise.
2008-04-23tests: remove now-unused Makefile.amJim Meyering
* tests/misc/Makefile.am: Remove file.
2008-04-23id: do not print SELinux context when invoked with a USERNAME argumentOndřej Vašík
* NEWS: Mention new behaviour. * src/id.c (main): Do not print SELinux context when user is specified. * tests/Makefile.am: Add the new test. * tests/misc/id-context: New file. Test for the fix. Problem reported by Ronny Buchmann in http://bugzilla.redhat.com/443485.
2008-04-23id: do print the AFS-specific nameless group ID (called a PAG)Jim Meyering
In 6.11, we mistakenly suppressed the printing of certain group IDs, thinking they were useless AFS-specific artifacts. This change reverts that, so now they are printed once again. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.org.fsf.announce/867/focus=13345 This also reverts the bug-fix that applied solely to the new code used to avoid printing those IDs Revert "id bug fix: don't point to potentially clobbered static storage" This reverts commit f7d1c59c224f81a8bab5fa2afcaf815988f50467. Revert "Work around AFS bug: id and groups would print invalid group number." This reverts commit b7a836c0a3524cda8ef79c30c3fe7ea759ae4656. Revert "* src/c99-to-c89.diff: Accommodate a C99-ism in id.c." This reverts commit d44893c5dba4150b4ded9cf6aad316c1ef620c9f.
2008-04-22build: move a project-specific definition to cfg.mkJim Meyering
* cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Define here, ... * maint.mk: ... not here. (update-NEWS-hash): Update comment. Suggestion from Eric Blake.
2008-04-22Accommodate building on OS/2 (www.ecomstation.com Ecs v2 rc4)Jim Meyering
* configure.ac: Filter out carriage returns in more places. Reported by Elbert Pol, details here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.org.fsf.announce/867/focus=13332
2008-04-22guard against inserting a NEWS entry into a block for a prior releaseJim Meyering
Without a guard like this, it is far too easy to apply a patch prepared against a preceding release, and not notice that a NEWS entry is inserted into the wrong block. * maint.mk (sc_immutable_NEWS): New rule. (update-NEWS-hash): New rule to update the hard-coded hash.
2008-04-22tests: ensure that all exec-$PERL lines are the sameJim Meyering
* maint.mk (sc_perl_coreutils_test): New rule.
2008-04-21tests: skip (don't fail) rm/one-file-system when mount --bind failsJim Meyering
* tests/rm/one-file-system: Reported by Allen Hewes.
2008-04-21tests: convert umask-check to a functionJim Meyering
* tests/test-lib.sh (working_umask_or_skip_): New function, from... * tests/umask-check: ...here. Remove file. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove umask-check. * tests/mkdir/perm: Use the function rather than sourcing the file. * tests/cp/cp-parents: Likewise. * tests/cp/parent-perm: Likewise. Bruno Haible reported that parent-perm was failing to run umask-check.
2008-04-21tests: adjust perl -I to use $top_srcdir/tests, not $srcdir/..Jim Meyering
2008-04-21tests: clean up root tests; adapt to new layoutJim Meyering
* tests/Makefile.am (root_tests): New list. (check-root): Add 'SUBDIRS='. (root-hint): Point to README. * Makefile.am (check-root): Add 'SUBDIRS=' here, too. * maint.mk (sc_root_tests): Adapt rule to new syntax used in tests/Makefile.am.
2008-04-21Revamp test-related Makefiles.Jim Meyering
One side-effect of this change is that "make check" now works even if you put "." early in your shell's search PATH (don't do that!). Remove all test-related Makefile.am files, except those generated by mk-script. Instead, tests/Makefile.am now lists not only the tests directly under tests/, but also those in tests/*/ that are not generated by mk-script, e.g., cp/abuse, cp/acl, mv/i-1, etc. A lot of these changes are like this: -. $srcdir/../lang-default +. $top_srcdir/tests/lang-default -. $srcdir/../test-lib.sh +. $top_srcdir/tests/test-lib.sh * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove corresponding Makefiles. * tests/check.mk (vc_exe_in_TESTS): Relax syntax requirements. * tests/rwx-to-mode: Remove file. Rewritten as... * tests/test-lib.sh (rwx_to_mode_): ...this new function. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove rwx-to-mode. (SUBDIRS): Remove each dir with a removed Makefile.am. (EXTRA_DIST): Add $(TESTS). (TESTS): Add over 300 entries.
2008-04-20* tests/misc/Makefile.am (built_programs): Remove. Unused.Jim Meyering
2008-04-20Use "env" to invoke potential built-ins.Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/pwd-unreadable-parent: Invoke pwd via "env -- pwd", rather than via an absolute name. * tests/touch/not-owner: Likewise for test. * tests/chmod/setgid: Likewise.

2008-04-19* THANKS: Update my address, correct encoding for a name.Sven Joachim
2008-04-19pr -e, with a mix of backspaces and TABs, could corrupt the heapJim Meyering
* tests/pr/Test.pm: New tests for the above. * src/pr.c (char_to_clump): Ensure that "input_position" never goes below 0. Also, elide any backspace encountered when input_position is 0, to be compatible at least with /bin/pr from Solaris 10. This bug is present in the original version: b25038ce9a234ea0906ddcbd8a0012e917e6c661 * NEWS [Bug fixes]: Mention this. Report and diagnosis by Cristian Cadar, Daniel Dunbar and Dawson Engler in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/13272

2008-04-19md5sum -c: ignore a line with a NUL byte among checksum hex digitsJim Meyering
* src/md5sum.c (hex_digits): Require that all "digest_hex_bytes" be hexadecimal digits, not just those before the first NUL byte. This bug dates back to the original version: 3763a4f24eb21be40674d13ff7b04e078f473e85 * tests/misc/md5sum (nul-in-cksum): Test for the above. * NEWS [Bug fixes]: Mention this. Prompted by a report from Flóki Pálsson in http://bugzilla.redhat.com/439531
2008-04-16tests: accommodate built-in mknod more cleanly stillMatthew Woehlke
* tests/mkdir/selinux: Use "env" rather than "nice".
2008-04-16tests: accommodate built-in mknod more cleanlyJim Meyering
* tests/mkdir/selinux: Undo most of previous change, bc22dbbf844f31ddaf2e68b167d0128a985d73ab, and instead invoke the command via "nice". Using "exec" should be enough, but isn't with OpenBSD's PD KSH v5.2.14 99/07/13.2. Eric Blake suggested using nice.
2008-04-16mknod --help: note that this command may be a shell built-inJim Meyering
* src/mknod.c (usage): Print USAGE_BUILTIN_WARNING. Suggestion from Eric Blake.
2008-04-16avoid "may be used uninitialized" warning from newer gccJim Meyering

* tests/mkdir/selinux: Skip the mknod test if it's a built-in.
2008-04-15md5sum, sha1sum, etc: handle invalid input (i.e., don't segfault)Jim Meyering
* src/md5sum.c (bsd_split_3): Return right away if s_len == 0. * tests/misc/md5sum (bsd-segv): New test for the above. * tests/misc/sha1sum (bsd-segv): Likewise. * NEWS: Mention the bug fix. Reported by Cristian Cadar, Daniel Dunbar and Dawson Engler.
2008-04-14tests: don't fail on systems without a "stat" syscallJim Meyering
* tests/test-lib.sh (require_strace_): Add a syscall parameter. * tests/ls/stat-free-symlinks: Update caller. * tests/mv/atomic: Likewise. * tests/mv/atomic2: Likewise. Reported by Mike Frysinger in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/13222
2008-04-14tests: accommodate a different errno string on Irix 6.5Jim Meyering
* tests/mkdir/selinux: Also handle "Not supported". Reported by Peter Fales.
2008-04-14seq: work around floating point inaccuracies on more systemsJim Meyering
* src/seq.c: Include <math.h> for fabs. Include <float.h> for DBL_EPSILON. (abs_rel_diff): New function. (print_numbers): Use abs_rel_diff rather than a strict equality test. Without this change, Solaris 8 and Irix 6.2 would fail the float-6 test. Reported by Peter Fales in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/13183 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Adjust seq.c offsets.

2008-04-12Avoid link failure when using mkstemp replacement.Jim Meyering
* src/Makefile.am (tac_LDADD): Add $(LIB_CLOCK_GETTIME). This is necessary at least on a DEC Alpha OSF/1 4.0F.
2008-04-12tests: always enable VERBOSE output, now that test framework works betterJim Meyering
* cfg.mk: Set VERBOSE=yes. * tests/check.mk: Likewise.
2008-04-11doc: avoid "make pdf" failure (due to texi2dvi bug?)Jim Meyering
* doc/coreutils.texi (filesZeroFromOption): Comment out @cindex-in-@macro use.
2008-04-11doc: use a valid texinfo macro nameJim Meyering

This is required at least on Haiku and BeOS. * src/remove.c (write_protected_non_symlink): Return 1 for a write- protected non-symlink, 0 if we determine it's not, and -1 upon error (setting errno accordingly only in this final case). (prompt): Deal with the changed semantics of the above function. Based on this patch from Axel Dörfler: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/13071
