2008-01-08Remove uses of now-undefined Makefile variable.Jim Meyering
* src/Makefile.am (dir_LDADD, ls_LDADD, vdir_LDADD): Remove uses of no-longer-defined variable, $(LIB_ACL_TRIVIAL).
2008-01-07cp (but not copy.c): plug a small leak.Jim Meyering
* src/cp.c (do_copy) [--parents]: Free the attribute list.
2008-01-07Make a racy test failure less likely to happen.Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/tty-eof: Uncomment a debug "warn". This change happens to make this test far less likely to fail. With that statement commented out, this test would fail about 20% of the time on my desktop. Now, it's gone 100 iterations in a row with no failure.
2008-01-07NEWS: Mention the cp bug fix.Jim Meyering
2008-01-07cp --parents: don't use uninitialized memory when restoring permissionsJan Blunck
* src/cp.c (make_dir_parents_private): Always stat each source directory, in case its permissions are required in re_protect, when setting permissions of a just-created destination directory.
2008-01-07cp: add a test for today's bug fix.Jim Meyering
* tests/cp/parent-perm: New script. Test today's change. Based on reproducer from Jan Blunck. * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add parent-perm.

* tests/touch/now-owned-by-other: New script. Test today's change. * tests/touch/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add now-owned-by-other. * tests/Makefile.am (all_t): Add td, a new root-only test. (td): New target. * NEWS: Mention the improvement.
2008-01-06touch: ignore "-d now" option, when appropriatePaul Eggert
* src/touch.c (main): Treat "-d now" as if it were absent, if neither -a nor -m is specified. Problem reported by Dan Jacobson in: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2008-01/msg00010.html
2008-01-06Avoid tr case-conversion failure in some locales.Jim Meyering
* src/tr.c (skip_construct): New function. (main): When processing a pair of case-converting classes, don't iterate through the elements of each [:upper:] or [:lower:] class. Reported by Gerald Pfeifer in <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/12218>. * tests/tr/Test.pm [tolower-F]: New test for the above fix. [upcase-xtra, dncase-xtra]: New tests, for a related code path. * NEWS: Mention the tr bug fix.

2007-12-31Add a syntax check, so this doesn't recur. Reorganize existing checks.Jim Meyering
* doc/Makefile.am (sc-exponent-grouping): (syntax_checks): New variable. (sc-avoid-io, sc-avoid-non-zero, sc-avoid-timezone): (sc-avoid-zeroes, sc-use-small-caps-NUL): New rules, extracted from check-texinfo. (check-texinfo): Depend on $(syntax_checks).

2007-12-20Use comma-separated list in ./configure --help output.Jim Meyering
* configure.ac: Map commas to spaces in excluded-program list. Use a comma-separated list, not a space-separated one. * m4/include-exclude-prog.m4 (gl_INCLUDE_EXCLUDE_PROG): Expect list of program names to be comma-separated. Reported by Jan Bauke Douma.
2007-12-20Avoid another "make check" failure due to omitted programs.Jim Meyering
* tests/test-lib.sh (require_built_): New function. * tests/misc/groups-version: Use it to skip this test if either groups or id is not built.
2007-12-20Avoid spurious "make check" failures due to omitted programs.Jim Meyering
* man/Makefile.am (distcheck-hook): Make check rules dependents of this target, not of check-local, so that people aren't distracted by failures due to programs omitted via --enable-no-install-program=...
2007-12-19Improve wording in uniq's --help "Note".Paul Eggert
2007-12-18* src/uniq.c (usage): Say "key-selection", not "field-selection".Jim Meyering

2007-12-11"ls -l" wouldn't output "+" on SELinux hosts unless -Z was also given.Paul Eggert
* src/ls.c (gobble_file): Also get the file context if -l is specified. Treat getfilecon failures like file_has_acl failures. (UNKNOWN_SECURITY_CONTEXT): New constant. (clear_files): Don't free it. (gobble_file): Set unknown security contexts to it; that way, we don't have to have special cases for unknown contexts. (print_long_format, print_file_name_and_frills): Don't worry about scontext being null, since it's always some string now.
2007-12-11* NEWS: Add the "Bug fixes" heading.Jim Meyering
2007-12-09"rm" as root would fail to unlink a non-directory on OS X 10.4.xJim Meyering

2007-12-04Reflect change in gnulib: don't include getpagesize.h,Jim Meyering
now that it's provided by unistd.h. * src/cat.c: Don't include getpagesize.h. * src/copy.c: Likewise. * src/dd.c: Likewise. * src/shred.c: Likewise. * src/split.c: Likewise.
2007-12-02Copy a .po file into place also when the target doesn't exist.Jim Meyering
* bootstrap (gnulib_tool): ... not just when the checksum differs. So now, if I manually remove po/xx.po, rerunning bootstrap will copy the latest into place. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
2007-12-02Make my-distcheck depend on "check".Jim Meyering
* Makefile.maint (my-distcheck): Also depend on "check", so I can't tag and release something that fails "make check" (however harmless) when run in a checked-out-from-git dir, but not in the distributed tarball. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
2007-12-02* NEWS: Add the usual "Noteworthy changes in release 6.9.91..." line.Jim Meyering
2007-12-02Remove just-installed su, if unable to make it set-UID root.Jim Meyering
Normally, su isn't even installed. However, if you configure with --enable-install-program=su, and then install with insufficient privileges, we now make sure to remove the just-installed binary. * src/Makefile.am (install-exec-hook): Rename from install-exec-local, so that this rule is guaranteed to be run *after* installation. If unable to chown and chmod the installed "su" program, remove it. Reported by Greg Schaefer.
2007-12-02Make test script, existing-perm-race, executable.Bob Proulx
* tests/cp/existing-perm-race: Update file mode.

2007-12-01Version 6.9.90.Jim Meyering
2007-12-01NEWS: Remove the now-untrue statement about cp vs. dangling symlinksJim Meyering
2007-12-01Change release procedure: tag *before* running e.g., "make stable".Jim Meyering
* Makefile.maint (vc-dist): Don't tag. Now, you must apply the tag before running "make beta", "make stable", etc. (vc-tag-check): Remove rule. No longer makes sense.
2007-12-01* Makefile.maint (vc-tag-check): Correct check for existing git tag.Jim Meyering
2007-12-01Defer NEWS and ChangeLog checks until after the version-changing tag.Jim Meyering
* Makefile.maint (alpha beta major): Don't depend on the news-date-check changelog-check targets. They must fail before applying the version-changing tag. Instead, run them after "vc-dist".
2007-12-01* NEWS: Mention some of the SELinux changes.Jim Meyering
Record release date and new version number. * src/stat.c (main): Adjust a comment.
2007-12-01TODO: Add entries (documentation needed); remove the "add mktemp program" one.Jim Meyering
2007-12-01Add "extern" keyword to declaration of cp_options_default.Jim Meyering
* src/copy.c (cp_options_default): Mark as "extern", so the "sc_tight_scope" part of "make distcheck" passes.
2007-12-01Change comments: say bug present up to coreutils-6.9, not fixed in 6.10.Jim Meyering
* tests/cut/Test.pm: Adjust comment. * tests/misc/cut: Likewise. * tests/misc/ls-misc: Likewise. * tests/misc/od: Likewise. * tests/misc/stty-invalid: Likewise. * tests/tr/Test.pm: Likewise.
2007-12-01Add a test for cp -p and existing file permissions.Paul Eggert
* tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add existing-perm-race. * tests/cp/existing-perm-race: New test. It isn't much of a test yet, since it's hard to catch the race, but it has a FIXME that will let us do a better test later.
2007-12-01Fix a security race with "cp -p A B" when B already exists.Paul Eggert
* src/copy.h (struct cp_options): New member owner_privileges. * src/copy.c (USE_ACL): Define to 0 if not defined, for convenience. (owner_failure_ok): New function. (set_owner): Avoid a security-related race by doing an extra chmod first if it looks like there might be trouble right after a chown. Accept a source struct stat rather than a uid and gid, and accept a boolean NEW_DST and destination struct stat. All callers changed. * src/copy.h (cp_options_default): New function, replacing the old chown_privileges. * src/copy.c (cp_options_default): Likewise. * src/cp.c (cp_option_init): Use it. * src/install.c (cp_option_init): Likewise. * src/mv.c (cp_option_init): Likewise.
2007-11-30Avoid a spurious test failure when build directory is set-GID.Jim Meyering
* tests/cp/fail-perm: Ensure that '.'s set-GID bit is off.
2007-11-30Be extra careful to quote $abs_top_builddir-derived names.Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/ls-misc (shell_quote): New function. Use it to quote file names derived from $abs_top_builddir, in case it contains shell meta-characters. This is not currently needed, since CuTmpdir detects the fishy name and skips the test. But it's important enough to add the extra protection. Reported by Ralf Wildenhues.
