* tests/mkdir/p-3: When setting up an unreadable "." in an
inaccessible parent, make the parent inaccessible *after* making "."
unreadable. Otherwise, running "chmod a-r ." in an already-
inaccessible parent would fail on NFS with "Stale NFS file handle".

* NEWS: Describe how the fix affects pr.
* src/pr.c (init_parameters): The --merge (-m) option does
not imply --expand-tabs (-e), so don't set "untabify_input".
Reported by Wis Macomson.
* tests/misc/pr: New file. Test for the above fix.
* tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add pr.
* THANKS: Update.

* bootstrap: Put ""s around use of $build_aux, in case
someone uses a name containing shell meta-characters.
Reported by Alfred M. Szmidt.
|
|
|
|
* tests/du/basic: Skip a test if "." is on a non-local file system.
|
|
* src/install.c (strip): Use waitpid, not wait. It's equivalent,
but feels less obsolescent.
|
|
|
|
* gl/lib/acl.c (ACL_NOT_WELL_SUPPORTED): New macro.
(file_has_acl, copy_acl): Use it, rather than enumerating errno values.
(is_trivial_acl): New function. Incomplete, for now.
(file_has_acl, copy_acl): Use the new function, rather than
counting the number of entries in an ACL.

|
(overwrite_prompt): Say "try to overwrite", not "overwrite", to
make it clearer that the attempt may fail. Problem reported by
Dan Jacobson in:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2007-03/msg00130.html
Output symbolic mode as well as numeric.
* tests/mv/i-2 (fail): Adjust to new prompt format.
|
|
* coreutils.texi (sort invocation): Explain numeric sorts better.
Compress self-congratulation into a simple "comparison is exact"
notice; the --general-numeric-sort option already explains the
tradeoffs.
(seq invocation): Add example of -f.
|
|
* Makefile.maint (sc_prohibit_atoi_atof): Add to regexp and diagnostic.
* .x-sc_prohibit_atoi_atof: Give stty a temporary pass.
* TODO: note that stty.c needs this small clean-up.
|
|
* gl/lib/acl.c: New file, copied from gnulib.
|
|
* tests/cp/sparse: Accept a report that the copy is *smaller*.

doesn't preserve time stamps on symbolic links.
Reported by Polo Talnir in <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/230866>.

|
* bootstrap.conf (XGETTEXT_OPTIONS): Exclude gettext-related .m4
files when e.g., AM_GNU_GETTEXT([external] appears in configure.ac.
|
|
* gl/lib/savewd.c: Copy this file from gnulib, then change
"errno != EACCES" to (errno != EACCES && errno != ESTALE).
The symptom was this failure in tests/install/basic-1:
ginstall: cannot create directory `rel/a': Stale NFS file handle
|
|
* tests/install/basic-1: Temporarily, don't redirect ginstall's
stderr to /dev/null, so I can see why the NFS autobuilder's NFS test
is failing.

|
* 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.

* 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>
|
|
* bootstrap (checkout_only_file): Rename from CVS_only_file.
Change comments and diagnostics not to say "CVS".
|
|
|
|
* 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.
|
|
|
|
* 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.

* tests/misc/pwd-unreadable-parent: Also skip when $REPLACE_GETCWD.
Reported by Bob Proulx.

|
|
|
* 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).

.diff file.
|
|
* Makefile.maint (my-distcheck): Update an outdated comment.
(emit_upload_commands): Use $(PACKAGE) rather than "coreutils".
|
|
(my-distcheck): Use the new variable, instead of too-long literal.
|
|
* 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.
|
|
* Makefile.maint (local-checks-available): Remove writable-files.
(alpha beta major): Put it here, instead.
|
|
* 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).
