2007-03-09Avoid test failures on Darwin 7.9.0 (MacOS X 10.3.9)Jim Meyering
* tests/chgrp/basic: Don't let failure by chgrp to set the group of a symlink make this test fail. Do give a diagnostic. In the chgrp-no-change-ctime test, add darwin7.9.0 as another known-failing system. When failing on some other system, print $host_triplet, too. Reported by Peter Fales.
2007-03-08* src/c99-to-c89.diff: Reflect the new c99'ism, update offsets.Jim Meyering
2007-03-08Add to .cvsignore and .gitignore files.Jim Meyering
2007-03-08TODO: printf: support %a even when the native *printf(3) is deficientJim Meyering
2007-03-08rm without -f: give a better diagnostic when euidaccess fails.Jim Meyering
* src/remove.c (write_protected_non_symlink): Return int, not bool, so that we can indicate failure too (as a postive error number). (prompt): If write_protected_non_symlink fails, report that error number and fail rather than charging ahead and removing the dubious entry. Redo the logic of printing a diagnostic so that we need to invoke quote (full_filename (...)) only once. More details at: <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/9952/focus=9996>
2007-03-08Generalize a few more cvs-isms.Jim Meyering
* bootstrap (checkout_only_file): Rename from CVS_only_file. Change comments and diagnostics not to say "CVS".
2007-03-08* bootstrap: Run libtool, if necessary.Jim Meyering
2007-03-08Make bootstrap a little more general.Jim Meyering
* bootstrap (build_aux): Factor out/use this definition. Formally require a "AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR($build_aux)" line in configure.ac. (insert_sorted_if_absent): Move function definition "up", to precede new first use. If $build_aux/ doesn't exist initially, create it, and mark it as ignored.
2007-03-04* vasnprintf.c (VASNPRINTF): Add missing semicolon.Jim Meyering
2007-03-03Fix a bug: cp -x would fail to set mount point permissions.Andrew Church
* NEWS: mention cp -x bug fix * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't return immediately after copying a mount point that we do not intend to recurse under. Based on a patch by Andrew Church.
2007-03-03pwd-unreadable-parent: Skip test on ia64/Linux, too.Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/pwd-unreadable-parent: Also skip when $REPLACE_GETCWD. Reported by Bob Proulx.
2007-03-02Add to .cvsignore and .gitignore files.Jim Meyering
2007-03-02* vasnprintf.c (VASNPRINTF): Remove cast of alloca return value.Jim Meyering
2007-03-02pwd-unreadable-parent: Skip test on non-Linux/GNU systems.Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/pwd-unreadable-parent: Rather than trying to decide whether this test has a chance of succeeding, run it only when $(host_os) is linux-gnu. It was failing on powerpc-apple-darwin8.8.0 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Add host_os=$(host_os).
2007-03-02* tests/misc/pwd-long: Also allow "+" in $PWD.Jim Meyering
2007-03-02* Makefile.maint (my-distcheck): Skip the c99/c89 check if there's no such ↵Jim Meyering
.diff file.
2007-03-02Remove another coreutils-ism. Formatting cleanup.Jim Meyering
* Makefile.maint (my-distcheck): Update an outdated comment. (emit_upload_commands): Use $(PACKAGE) rather than "coreutils".
2007-03-01* Makefile.maint (warn_cflags): Hoist, adding "-Dlint -O".Jim Meyering
(my-distcheck): Use the new variable, instead of too-long literal.
2007-03-01Make "make syntax-check" rules less coreutils-specific.Jim Meyering
* Makefile.maint (sc_cast_of_x_alloc_return_value): Use CVS_LIST_EXCEPT. (sc_cast_of_alloca_return_value): Likewise. (sc_root_tests): Do nothing if there is no check-root target in tests/Makefile.am.
2007-03-01Run the writable-files check only for release-building targets.Jim Meyering
* Makefile.maint (local-checks-available): Remove writable-files. (alpha beta major): Put it here, instead.
2007-03-01"make syntax-check" now runs only Makefile.cfg-selected testsJim Meyering
* Makefile.maint (syntax-check-rules): Hoist this definition so that it precedes the indirect use in the definition of $(local-check). (local-check): Use :=, not just "=". (syntax-check): Depend on $(local-check), not $(syntax-check-rules).
2007-03-01Merge in changes from gnulib:Jim Meyering
* vasnprintf.c: Add a comment explaining why coreutils has its own version of this file. Include <stdint.h>. (SIZE_MAX): Remove definition (now, stdint.h covers that). (EOVERFLOW): Remove definition (now done via the eoverflow module). Update some #ifdef to #if. Use HAVE_LONG_LONG_INT, not HAVE_LONG_LONG. * printf-parse.c: Likewise.
2007-03-01* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Replace xreadlink withBruno Haible

Problem reported by Philip Rowlands in <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2007-02/msg00283.html>.
2007-02-28* tsearch.c: Remove unused file.Jim Meyering
2007-02-28* .x-sc_file_system: Add the new test, tests/misc/df-P, to thisJim Meyering
list of exceptions, for the "make distcheck" sc_file_system rule.
2007-02-28* Makefile.maint (gnulib_snapshot_date): Remove now-unused definition.Jim Meyering
2007-02-28* tests/misc/df-P: This script *is* executable.Jim Meyering
2007-02-27Add a test for today's df -P fix.Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/df-P: New file. * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add df-P.
2007-02-27Make df -P immune to effects of e.g., the BLOCK_SIZE envvar.Paul Eggert
* NEWS: With -P, the default block size and output format is not affected by DF_BLOCK_SIZE, BLOCK_SIZE, or BLOCKSIZE. * src/df.c (main): Implement this. * doc/coreutils.texi (df invocation): With -P, the default block size and output format is not affected by DF_BLOCK_SIZE, BLOCK_SIZE, or BLOCKSIZE.
2007-02-25* Makefile.maint (announcement): Adjust so that it works withJim Meyering
announce-gen's --gnulib-snapshot-time-stamp option. Indent one of the command lines using TAB, not 8 spaces.

2007-02-24Don't skip this test on new-enough Linux/GNU systems.Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/pwd-unreadable-parent: Test $REPLACE_GETCWD = 0, rather than for __GETCWD_PREFIX in config.h (the latter is no longer defined, ever, due to gnulib changes). * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Define REPLACE_GETCWD.
2007-02-24Remove the "gnits" option; it prohibits my using "+" as a versionJim Meyering
string suffix, and all it does (beyond the default "gnu" option) is to _require_ the THANKS file. * configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Remove it. Remove all AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS settings in Makefile.am files. * tests/chgrp/Makefile.am, tests/chmod/Makefile.am: * tests/chown/Makefile.am, tests/cp/Makefile.am: * tests/du/Makefile.am, tests/expr/Makefile.am: * tests/factor/Makefile.am, tests/general/Makefile.am: * tests/install/Makefile.am, tests/ln/Makefile.am: * tests/ls/Makefile.am, tests/mkdir/Makefile.am: * tests/mv/Makefile.am, tests/readlink/Makefile.am: * tests/rm/Makefile.am, tests/rmdir/Makefile.am: * tests/seq/Makefile.am, tests/stty/Makefile.am: * tests/tee/Makefile.am, tests/touch/Makefile.am:
2007-02-24* README: Document the OSF/1 4.0d build failure and work-around.Jim Meyering
Reported by Bruno Haible.
2007-02-24* NEWS: Use a simple "+" suffix to denote pre-release, not "-dirty".Jim Meyering
Nicer connotations. * configure.ac: Use 6.7+, not 6.7-dirty.
2007-02-24* NEWS: sort no longer compresses temporaries by default.Paul Eggert
* bootstrap.conf: Remove findprog. * doc/coreutils.texi (sort invocation): The default is to not compress. Don't treat "" specially. * src/sort.c: Don't include findprog.h. (create_temp): Compress only if the user specified --compress-program. * tests/misc/sort-compress: Adjusts tests to match new behavior.
2007-02-24Avoid a shell syntax error, when building with an inadequate Perl.Jim Meyering
* man/Makefile.am (.x.1): Add quotes around $(PERL) in case, since it can expand to "/.../missing perl".
2007-02-24* man/Makefile.am (.x.1): Warn when unable to update a man page.Jim Meyering
Suggestion from Bruno Haible.
2007-02-24Handle better the combination of old Perl and a pre-c99 compiler.Bruno Haible
* man/Makefile.am (.x.1): If the autoconf test has determined that perl is missing or not a sufficient version, do nothing.
2007-02-24* tests/readlink/can-e: Put the closing double-quote at the end of aBruno Haible
backquoted word, not in the middle. Works around a bug in sh on OSF/1 4.0d. * tests/readlink/can-f: Likewise. * tests/readlink/can-m: Likewise.
2007-02-24* tests/du/slink: Skip the test if executing on an nfsv3 file system.Bruno Haible
This avoids a test failure at least on OSF/1 4.0d.
2007-02-23* randperm.c (randperm_new): Comment: say that this functionJim Meyering
returns a pointer to malloc'd storage.
2007-02-23* src/date.c (usage): Split a diagnostic that had grown to beJim Meyering
longer than the C89 maximum of 509 bytes.
2007-02-23* src/date.c (usage): Mention that --rfc-3339 uses space, not 'T',Ed Santiago
for a separator. Include sample RFC 2822 and 3339 output.
2007-02-23With -Dlint, make shuf free all heap-allocated storage.Jim Meyering
* src/shuf.c (main): Move declaration of input_lines to function scope, and initialize to NULL, so we can free it. [lint]: Free all malloc'd memory. * tests/misc/shuf: Also test shuf's -e and -i options.
2007-02-22Correct typo in ChangeLog entry.Jim Meyering
2007-02-22Merge in a change from some other incarnation of this file (gzip?)Jim Meyering
* bootstrap (gnulib_tool): Skip get_translations if there is no po/ dir.
2007-02-22Honor dd's noatime flag if possible, even if not supported on build fsPaul Eggert
* doc/coreutils.texi (dd invocation): Warn that noatime might not be reliable. * src/dd.c (flags, usage): Look at O_NOATIME, not HAVE_WORKING_O_NOATIME, to decide whether to support the noatime flag, so that dd attempts O_NOATIME even if the build file system does not support it. Problem reported by Jim Meyering today in bug-coreutils. * tests/dd/misc: Generate a warning, not a failure, if noatime exists but fails.
