2007-11-27Fix md5sum+sha*sum on sparc: regenerate files with latest autoconf.Jim Meyering
* configure et al: Regenerate with very latest version of autoconf (v2.61a-312-gb524b0f), to fix md5sum and sha*sum miscompilation on big-endian systems (like sparc) due to lack of the required definition in of WORDS_BIGENDIAN in lib/config.h.
2007-11-26setuidgid.c: more cleanupJim Meyering
* src/setuidgid.c: Include "mgetgroups.h". (main): Don't presume there's a fixed limit on the maximum number of group IDs. Don't use NGROUPS; it's artificially low. Change the name of a local: s/gids_count/n_gids/. Remove non-portable "const": s/const int tmp =.../int tmp =.../
2007-11-25Document install's -D option.Jim Meyering
* doc/coreutils.texi (install invocation): Document -D. Reported by Akim Demialle.
2007-11-25setuidgid: Update --help output.Jim Meyering
* src/setuidgid.c (usage): Describe -g GID[,GID1...] option. Mention that USER may be a numeric ID or a user name.
2007-11-24Tweak new test.Jim Meyering
* tests/cp/preserve-gid: Split some long lines. Prepend "+" to numeric uid and gid chown arguments, on principle. Use skip_test_.
2007-11-24setuidgid: minor clean-up.Jim Meyering
* setuidgid.c: Include "xstrtoul.h". (main): Detect overflow in string-to-gid_t and -to-uid_t conversions. Improve diagnostics.
2007-11-24setuidgid.c: Normalize leading white space: no more TABsJim Meyering
2007-11-24Test the new feature: cp -p preserves the GID whenever possible.Lasse Collin
* tests/cp/preserve-gid: New file. Test for today's change. * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add preserve-gid. * tests/Makefile.am (all_t): Add tc. (tc): New target.
2007-11-24setuidgid: accept numeric UID, and new option -g GID,GID1,GID2,...Lasse Collin
* src/setuidgid.c: Add functionality for the new test above.
2007-11-24"cp -p" tries to preserve GID even if preserving the UID fails.Lasse Collin
* NEWS: Mention this new feature. * src/copy.c (set_owner): Try to preserve just the GID, when initial fchown/lchown fails. * src/cp.c (re_protect): Likewise.
2007-11-23* src/runcon.c (main): Remove unused parameter, "envp".Jim Meyering
2007-11-23Add tests to show new class of strings accepted by date -d.Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/date (rel-1day, rel-plus1): New tests for the recent change in gnulib's getdate.y. * NEWS: Mention the fix.
2007-11-22Quiet warnings about unused parameters.Jim Meyering
* src/copy.c (set_author) [!HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_AUTHOR]: "Use" each of the parameters.
2007-11-22* GNUmakefile: Correct the "rerunning..." diagnostic.Jim Meyering
2007-11-22Make it easier to diagnose PATH-induced "make distcheck" failures.Jim Meyering
* Makefile.maint (write_loser): Define. (my-distcheck): Use an always-failing wrapper script, that gives a diagnostic, not "false". Run only "make -C tests check" with the restrictive PATH. Run the new gnulib-tests/ with the usual PATH.
2007-11-22cp: by default, refuse to copy through a dangling destination symlinkJim Meyering
* NEWS: Mention this change. * doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Describe the new behavior. * src/copy.c: No longer include "canonicalize.h". (copy_reg): Upon failure to open a dangling destination symlink, don't canonicalize the name, but rather fail (default) or, with POSIXLY_CORRECT, repeat the open call without O_EXCL (potentially dangerous). * src/copy.h (struct cp_options) [open_dangling_dest_symlink]: New member. Reorder the others, grouping "bool" and "enum" members together. * tests/cp/thru-dangling: Test for changed and new behavior. * src/cp.c (cp_option_init): Initialize new member. * src/install.c (cp_option_init): Likewise. * src/mv.c (cp_option_init): Likewise.

2007-11-21Fix Pádraig's name in ChangeLog.Jim Meyering
2007-11-21Improve the descriptions of the split command options.Pádraig Brady
* doc/coreutils.texi (split invocation):
2007-11-21* src/c99-to-c89.diff: Adjust seq.c offsets.Jim Meyering
2007-11-21* src/seq.c (print_numbers): Rewrite in an attempt to avoid thePaul Eggert
more-general rounding issues exposed by the previous patch.
2007-11-18* src/c99-to-c89.diff: Adjust seq.c offsets.Jim Meyering
2007-11-18Remove unused parameter in remove.c.Jim Meyering
* src/remove.c (fd_to_subdirp): Remove unused parameter. (remove_cwd_entries, remove_dir): Update callers.
2007-11-18bootstrap: work also with 4-argument variant of AC_INIT (from gnulib)Jim Meyering
2007-11-18 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@gnu.org.ua> * bootstrap (gnulib_extra_files): Adjust sed command.
2007-11-17Correct preceding patch.Jim Meyering
* src/seq.c (print_numbers): Also handle first < last && step < 0. * tests/misc/seq [empty-rev]: New test for this case.
2007-11-17"seq .1 .1" would mistakenly generate no output on some systemsJim Meyering
* NEWS: Say this. * src/seq.c (print_numbers): Handle another floating point corner case. This avoids failure of seq's eq-wid-7 test on FreeBSD 6.1.
2007-11-17Port tests/rmdir/ignore away from GNU/Linux.Paul Eggert
* tests/rmdir/ignore: Don't assume that rmdir($PWD) will fail with errno==ENOTEMPTY when $PWD is not empty; Posix also allows rmdir to fail with errno==EBUSY.
2007-11-16Avoid an obscure new "make distcheck" failure.Jim Meyering
* Makefile.maint (my-distcheck): Also allow 'mv', for its use in gnulib-tests/Makefile.
2007-11-16Port readlink-fp-loop to Solaris.Paul Eggert
* tests/misc/readlink-fp-loop (symlink_loop_msg): New var, which records the symlink-loop message, whose wording is not standardized by Posix. Do not rely on "echo x > p/1" to work when p/1 has a lot of indirect symlinks. (I'm surprised that it works on Linux. Perhaps a Linux bug?)
2007-11-16Port to Solaris 'make' and use a Posixish shell on Solaris.Jim Meyering
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add gnu-make, posix-shell. * build-aux/check.mk (SHELL): Set to $(PREFERABLY_POSIX_SHELL), so that commands can assume Posix syntax. (ENABLE_HARD_ERRORS, TEST_LOGS): Don't use GNU Make's "?=" syntax. (SH_E_WORKAROUND): New macro. (am__check_pre, $(TEST_SUITE_LOG)): Use it. (am__check_pre): Fail if "mkdir" fails. Use $(SHELL) rather than relying on the "#!/bin/sh" in the file, so that tests can use Posix syntax. (am__check_pre, am__tty_colors): Use $$src rather than $$<, to support the Posix-make $(TEST_LOGS) rule. (%.log: %.test, %.log: %$(EXEEXT)): Remove unused inference rules that rely on a GNU Make extension and cause Solaris 'make' to fail. (SUFFIXES): New macro, so that we can use Posix style inference rules. (%.log: %): Use this rule only if GNU_MAKE. Set $$src so that macros can use $$src rather than $$<. (CHECK-FORCE, DEPENDENCY, $(TEST_LOGS)): New macros and rules, which rely only on Posix 'make' semantics, and are used only with non-GNU 'make' implementations. $(TEST_LOGS) invokes 'make' recursively (and a bit inefficiently) to simulate the GNU 'make' rules. (.log.html): Renamed from "%.html: %.log", so that it relies only on Posix 'make' semantics. (check-clean, .PHONY): Do not depend on check-clean-local, since Solaris 'make' complains about nonexistent rules like that. * src/Makefile.am (SUFFIXES): Remove; no longer needed. (groups): Use a specific rule rather than an inference rule that is only instantiated once. The inference-rule approach does not work with Solaris 'make', which gets confused by the "groups: Makefile" line. It's not clear from the Posix spec that Solaris 'make' is buggy here, so instead of worrying about it, rewrite the makefile so that it clearly conforms to Posix. * tests/check.mk (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Export PACKAGE_BUGREPORT. GNU 'make' does this automatically for us, but Solaris 'make' doesn't. 2007-11-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2007-11-16Port to Solaris 8 perl, which does not support "use warnings;".Paul Eggert
* tests/dd/skip-seek: Skip test if "use warnings;" fails. * tests/du/files0-from: Likewise. * tests/misc/base64: Likewise. * tests/misc/basename: Likewise. * tests/misc/cut: Likewise. * tests/misc/date: Likewise. * tests/misc/dircolors: Likewise. * tests/misc/dirname: Likewise. * tests/misc/expand: Likewise. * tests/misc/expr: Likewise. * tests/misc/factor: Likewise. * tests/misc/fmt: Likewise. * tests/misc/fold: Likewise. * tests/misc/head-elide-tail: Likewise. * tests/misc/ls-misc: Likewise. * tests/misc/md5sum: Likewise. * tests/misc/md5sum-newline: Likewise. * tests/misc/mktemp: Likewise. * tests/misc/od: Likewise. * tests/misc/paste-no-nl: Likewise. * tests/misc/pr: Likewise. * tests/misc/seq: Likewise. * tests/misc/sha1sum: Likewise. * tests/misc/sha1sum-vec: Likewise. * tests/misc/sha224sum: Likewise. * tests/misc/sha256sum: Likewise. * tests/misc/sha384sum: Likewise. * tests/misc/sha512sum: Likewise. * tests/misc/sort-merge: Likewise. * tests/misc/stat-printf: Likewise. * tests/misc/sum: Likewise. * tests/misc/test-diag: Likewise. * tests/misc/tsort: Likewise. * tests/misc/unexpand: Likewise. * tests/misc/wc-files0-from: Likewise. * tests/misc/xstrtol: Likewise. * tests/mv/i-1: Likewise. * tests/rm/empty-name: Likewise. * tests/rm/unreadable: Likewise.
2007-11-15* m4/include-exclude-prog.m4 (gl_REMOVE_PROG): Fix syntax error.Andreas Schwab
Remove trailing space from result.
2007-11-15Avoid misbehavior of a cross-device "mv" or "install".Jim Meyering
Those programs must not dereference a destination symlink. * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Don't treat a dangling destination symlink differently in move mode. In move mode, the only way the added O_EXCL can cause failure is when some other process has recreated the file this code unlinked a few instructions before.
2007-11-14Another bootstrap kludge.Jim Meyering
* bootstrap: Ensure gnulib-tests/test-*.sh are executable
2007-11-14src/install.c (setdefaultfilecon): Stub-out the entire function.Jim Meyering
2007-11-14#ifdef-out matchpathcon-related code, for now.Jim Meyering
* src/install.c (setdefaultfilecon): #ifdef-out all of the matchpathcon-related code, until it's more efficient.
2007-11-14Use gnulib's stpncpy module, now required by install.cJim Meyering
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add stpncpy.
2007-11-14Enable gnulib-tool's --with-tests option.Jim Meyering
* bootstrap: After all is done, transform the generated gnulib-tests/gnulib.mk. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_tool_option_extras): Set it here. * gnulib-tests/Makefile.am: New file. * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add gnulib-tests. * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Add gnulib-tests/Makefile. * m4/jm-macros.m4 (coreutils_MACROS) [ARGMATCH_DIE_DECL]: Omit the "extern " prefix to "void usage ()", so that the macro string value can be used to construct a function definition in gnulib's test-argmatch.c.
2007-11-13Likewise for description of cp -a in doc/coreutils.texi: s/-dpPR/-dpR/.Benno Schulenberg
2007-11-12Clarify description of cp's -a option.Benno Schulenberg
* src/cp.c (usage) [-a]: Remove unnecessary 'P'. Since option -d of 'cp' includes the function of -P, mentioning the latter in the description of option -a is redundant and therefore slightly confusing, as the reader tries to figure out what it adds.
2007-11-10bootstrap: fix typo to enable use of $gnulib_tool_option_extras.Jim Meyering
* bootstrap (gnulib_tool_options): Add a space before the use of $gnulib_tool_option_extras, so that it's separated from the preceding argument. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
2007-11-10install+SELinux: reduce a 12x performance hit to ~1.5xJim Meyering
* src/install.c (setdefaultfilecon): Call matchpathcon_init_prefix, to mitigate what would otherwise be a large performance hit due to the use of matchpathcon. Dan Walsh suggested the use of matchpathcon_init_prefix. * gl/lib/se-selinux.in.h (matchpathcon_init_prefix): Define. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
2007-11-08Adapt to gnulib's s/jm_/gl_/ cache variable renaming.Jim Meyering
* configure.ac: Change the cache variable name prefix "jm_" to "gl_", to match today's change in gnulib.
2007-11-05Fix bootstrap failure to handle files like lib/uniwidth/cjk.h.Jim Meyering
* bootstrap (cp_mark_as_generated): Create any required parent destination directories before copying a file into place.
2007-11-05* src/c99-to-c89.diff: Adjust offsets.Jim Meyering
2007-11-05Don't use GNU-sed-specific \< \> operators here, either.Jim Meyering
* m4/include-exclude-prog.m4 (gl_REMOVE_PROG): Use a loop, as below.
2007-11-05Use tighter regexps when performing name substitution.Jim Meyering
* man/Makefile.am (mapped_name): Add ^ and $$ anchors. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
2007-11-05Don't use GNU-sed-specific \< \> operators.Jim Meyering
* configure.ac (MAN): Transform ginstall.1 to install.1 using a loop, rather than sed with \<...\>. Problem reported by Bruno Haible. Andreas Schwab reminded me that \< and \> are not portable.
2007-11-05Get git-version-gen from gnulib.Jim Meyering
* build-aux/git-version-gen: Remove file. * build-aux/.gitignore: Add git-version-gen. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add git-version-gen.
2007-11-03git-version-gen: Sync from autoconf's version.Jim Meyering
* build-aux/git-version-gen: Run git-status
2007-11-03Sync copyright and scriptversion bits from gnulib.Jim Meyering
* build-aux/git-version-gen: No semantic change.
