2007-07-13Use proper backslash-quoting inside backticks.Jim Meyering
* configure.ac: Otherwise we run afoul of strict GNU tr: a string ending in a lone backslash would provoke a failure.
2007-07-12Expand default-no-install prog list in ./configure --help output,Jim Meyering
and fix some []-quoting bugs in sed expressions. * configure.ac: Hard-code the list, "arch,su" here as well as in src/Makefile.am, and ensure the two stay in sync. * m4/include-exclude-prog.m4 (gl_INCLUDE_EXCLUDE_PROG): Use $2, rather than the nearly-equivalent shell variable. Karel Zak reported that ./configure --help's output included the literal string, $gl_no_install_progs_default.
2007-07-12Clean up include-exclude-prog.m4.Jim Meyering
* m4/include-exclude-prog.m4 (gl_ADD_PROG): Don't modify MAN. (gl_REMOVE_PROG): Likewise. Add omitted "\>" in sed regexp. Remove any leading or trailing spaces. (gl_ADD_PROG): Remove any leading space. * configure.ac: Instead, derive $MAN from $optional_bin_progs. Append $(EXEEXT) to *all* names, not just the first one.
2007-07-11If there's a GPL vN copyright comment, require that N == 3.Jim Meyering
* Makefile.maint (sc_GPL_version): New rule. * tests/misc/arch: Fix the sole violation.
2007-07-10Skip "arch" test if it's not built.Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/Makefile.am (built_programs): Define. (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Add $(built_programs), for... * tests/misc/arch: ...this: skip the test if arch is not built. * src/Makefile.am (built_programs.list): New rule. * tests/Makefile.am (built_programs): Rename from all_programs. (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Use built_programs, not all_programs. * tests/help-version: Likewise. * NEWS: Mention that using --enable-no-install-program=X may cause "make check" to fail. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2007-07-10Add support for enabling/disabling installation of specified programs.Jim Meyering
* NEWS: Mention new configure-time options. Mention that neither arch nor su is built/installed, by default. * m4/include-exclude-prog.m4: New file. * configure.ac: Use new macro, gl_ADD_PROG, rather than manually appending to OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS and MAN. Move the code that adds "df" to the list of programs to build from m4/jm-macros into this file. Use gl_INCLUDE_EXCLUDE_PROG, then handle special cases: ginstall, [. (NO_INSTALL_PROGS_DEFAULT): AC_SUBST it. Used by man/Makefile.am. * man/Makefile.am (dist_man_MANS): Remove from this list all man pages corresponding to "bin" programs. Add $(MAN) instead. (optional_mans): Remove all uses. (check-x-vs-1): Adapt to work even though arch and su are typically no longer built (and neither are their .1 files). * src/Makefile.am (install_su): Rename from INSTALL_SU, now that INSTALL_SU has a different meaning. Use the new $(INSTALL_SU) value.
2007-07-10New program: archKarel Zak
* NEWS: Mention arch. * README: Add arch to the list of programs. * AUTHORS: Add arch. * src/uname.c: Include "uname.h". (PROGRAM_NAME): Handle arch, too. (ARCH_AUTHORS): Define. (uname_long_options, arch_long_options): Renamed and new globals. (usage): Handle arch-mode as well as uname-mode. (decode_switches): New function, extracted from main, to handle arch-mode as well as uname-mode. (main): Handle both modes. * src/uname-arch.c: New program, alias for "uname -m". * src/uname-uname.c: New file, default uname mode. * src/uname.h: New file, uname modes. * src/Makefile.am (EXTRA_PROGRAMS): Add arch. (uname_SOURCES, arch_SOURCES): Define. * man/arch.x: New file. * man/Makefile.am (dist_man_MANS): Add arch.1. (arch.1): New dependency. * tests/misc/arch: New test, compare "arch" with "uname -m" * configure.ac (OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS): Add arch. (MAN): Add arch.1. * .x-sc_require_config_h: Exempt uname-arch.c and uname-uname.c from the always-include-<config.h> rule.

2007-07-10Change "version 2" to "version 3" in all copyright notices.Jim Meyering
2007-07-09Compensate for new c99'isms in seq.c.Jim Meyering
* Makefile.maint (patch-check): Use -p1, not -p2, so a patch generated via "make patch-check REGEN=1" actually works. * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Handle new c99'isms in seq.c.
2007-07-09Fix the automatic number width formatting in seq.P@draigBrady.com
* src/seq.c: Fix the -w logic. Ignore spaces and '+' characters of input numbers when determining width. Set format correctly for input numbers in scientific notation. * tests/seq/basic: Add various number width tests. Details: <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/10903> Signed-off-by: Pádraig Brady <Pádraig Brady P@draigBrady.com>
2007-07-08Run the coreutils-specific code only if tests/Makefile.am.in exists.Jim Meyering
* bootstrap (mam_template): Move definition out of loop.
2007-07-08Remove .gdb-history.Jim Meyering
2007-07-08Add to .cvsignore and .gitignore files.Jim Meyering
2007-07-08Create symlinks for gl/{lib,m4}/*, just as for gnulib/{lib,m4}/*.Jim Meyering
* bootstrap (symlink_to_dir): Rename function from symlink_to_gnulib. Add a directory parameter. Update all callers. (cp_mark_as_generated): Also check for -- and link to -- files in gl/.
2007-07-08THANKS: Add Pádraig Brady.Jim Meyering
2007-07-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2007-07-08Adapt to deeper hierarchy in gnulib.Jim Meyering
* bootstrap (gnulib_tool): If the destination directory doesn't exist, create it. This is required at least for "lib/uniwidth/cjk.h".
2007-07-08Use <wchar.h>, not "wcwidth.h".Jim Meyering
* src/wc.c: Now that gnulib provides the POSIX-specified <wchar.h>, include it and <wctype.h>, rather than "wcwidth.h". * src/ls.c: Include <wchar.h>, rather than "wcwidth.h".
2007-07-07Fix typo in comment.Jim Meyering
2007-07-06setuidgid: set all groups, not just the primary one; mgetgroups: new moduleJim Meyering
I wanted to use the xgetgroups function from id.c, so factored it out and made it into a non-exiting function (hence the "m" prefix rather than "x"). * src/setuidgid.c (main): Use mgetgroups. Include "mgetgroups.h". * src/id.c (xgetgroups): Remove function. Include "mgetgroups.h". (print_group_list): Use mgetgroups, not xgetgroups. * gl/modules/mgetgroups: New module. * gl/lib/mgetgroups.c: New file. mgetgroups is derived from id.c's xgetgroups function. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add mgetgroups. * gl/m4/mgetgroups.m4: New file. * gl/lib/mgetgroups.h: New file.
2007-07-05* bootstrap: Merge in changes from gnulib.Jim Meyering
2007-07-05* src/id.c: Include "getugroups.h" rather than declaring manually.Jim Meyering
2007-07-04Add Paul's ChangeLog for previous patch.Jim Meyering
Restore the m4/.gitignore file I inadvertently removed.
2007-07-04pr -F no longer suppresses the footer or the first two blank header linesPaul Eggert
Here's a patch along the lines of <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/10849/focus=10857>. It's a bit large since it changes the test cases to match the behavior, and the test cases' file names depend on the behavior! * NEWS: pr -F no longer suppresses the footer or the first two blank lines in the header. * doc/coreutils.texi (pr invocation): Likewise. Also, a too-short page length implies -t, not -T. * src/pr.c (lines_per_header, lines_per_footer): Now constants. (init_parameters): Don't try to change them. (print_header): Use the same header and footer format regardless of wither form feeds are being used. (usage): Adjust to above change when describing too-short page length. Too-short page length impliesy -t, not -T. * tests/pr/2-S_f-t_notab: Adjust to the fact that -F now affects only formfeed handling; it does not change the header. * tests/pr/2-Sf-t_notab: Likewise. ... * tests/pr/3-5l17f-t: Remove, since it's been renamed to another file whose name has a line count 7 larger, reflecting the new line count needed for this behavior. * tests/pr/3a3l8f-t: Likewise. ... * tests/pr/w72l24f-ll: Likewise. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2007-06-23Prefer "STREQ (a, b)" over "strcmp (a, b) == 0"; similar for != 0.Jim Meyering
* src/base64.c (main): Likewise. * src/install.c (setdefaultfilecon): Likewise. * src/sort.c (main): Likewise. * Makefile.maint (sc_prohibit_strcmp): New rule. * .x-sc_prohibit_strcmp: New file, to list the few exceptions. * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .x-sc_prohibit_strcmp.
2007-06-23seq no longer mishandles cases like "seq 0 0.000001 0.000003",Paul Eggert
where it would not print the desired last number. * doc/coreutils.texi (seq invocation): Remove advice about workaround for seq off-by-one problem, since the bug is fixed now. Replace it with more-generic advice about rounding errors. * src/seq.c (long_double_format, print_numbers): New arg NUMERIC_FORMAT. All uses changed.
2007-06-22Add test cases for seq off-by-one problem.Pádraig Brady
2007-06-22* src/stat.c (long_options): Add a FIXME comment to help ensureJim Meyering
that the deprecated and undocumented "--filesystem" option is removed someday.
2007-06-18A few more symlink-related fixes. Fix a bug triggered by cpPaul Eggert
--parents and symlinks. Close some race conditions possible when the destination replaces a newly-created file with a symlink. * NEWS: Document that 'cp --parents' no longer mishandles symlinks in file name components of source. * src/copy.c (HAVE_LCHOWN): Default to false. (lchown) [!defined HAVE_LCHOWN]: Define to chown, for convenience. * src/cp.c (lchown) [!HAVE_LCHOWN]: Likewise. * src/install.c (lchown [!HAVE_LCHOWN]: Likewise. * src/copy.c (set_owner): Use lchown instead of chown, for safety in case the file got replaced by a symlink in the meantime. * src/cp.c (re_protect): Likewise. * src/install.c (change_attributes): Likewise. * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Use ordinary C rather than an #if. * src/cp.c (lchown) [!HAVE_LCHOWN]: Define to chown, for convenience. (struct dir_attr): Cache the entire struct stat of the directory, rather than just its mode, so that we needn't stat the directory twice (which can lead to races). (re_protect): Don't use XSTAT as that's not appropriate in this context (symlinks should be followed here). Instead, use the cached stat value. (make_dir_parents_private): Save dir's entire struct stat, not just its mode. * tests/cp/cp-parents: Add test to check against bug with cp --parents and symlinks.
2007-06-18Use mreadlink_with_size (doesn't exit), not xreadlink_with_size.Jim Meyering
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add readlink-with-size. Remove xreadlink and xreadlink-with-size. * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Use mreadlink_with_size, not xreadlink_with_size. * src/ls.c (get_link_name): Likewise. * src/readlink.c (main): Likewise. * src/stat.c (print_stat): Likewise.
2007-06-18* README-hacking: Don't mention Gzip 1.2.4, now that 1.3.12 is out.Jim Meyering
2007-06-16Make chgrp and chown diagnostics consistent.Jim Meyering
* src/chown.c (main): Emit the diagnostic before the file name, not after it, to be consistent with chgrp's diagnostic. * src/chgrp.c (parse_group): Emit a ":" between the diagnostic and the file name. Reported by Egmont Koblinger. * THANKS: Add Egmont Koblinger.
2007-06-15Correct cp's handling of destination symlinks in some cases.Paul Eggert
* NEWS: "cp" no longer considers a destination symlink to be the same as the referenced file when copying links or making backups. * src/copy.c (copy_reg): When following a symlink, use the followed name in later chown etc. requests, so that the created file is affected, rather than the symlink. Use O_NOFOLLOW on source when not dereferencing symlinks; this avoids a race. Preserve errno correctly when doing multiple open attempts on the destination. (copy_internal): Follow destination symlinks only when copying a regular file and only when we don't intend to remove or rename the destination first, regardless of whether following source symlinks; this is because since POSIX and tradition (e.g., FreeBSD) say we should ordinarily follow destination symlinks if the system calls would ordinarily do so. * src/copy.h (struct cp_options): Add comment that 'dereference' is only for source files. * src/cp.c (usage): Note that --derereference etc. are only for source files. (make_dir_parents_private): Follow symlinks, regardless of whether --dereference is specified, because these are destination symlinks. * tests/cp/same-file: Adjust tests to match revised behavior. Filter out perror output since it might vary from host to host. Use sed alone instead of also using echo. * doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Document the behavior better when the destination is a symlink. Clarify source versus destination symlinks. Describe the new behavior for destination symlinks. 2007-06-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> * src/copy.c: Include "canonicalize.h". (copy_reg): Use canonicalize_filename_mode to follow the symlink, so that we can always open with O_EXCL and avoid a race.
2007-06-15Don't include "quote.h" when it is not used.Jim Meyering
* src/md5sum.c: Remove unnecessary inclusion of "quote.h". * src/expr.c: Likewise. * src/shred.c: Likewise. * Makefile.maint (sc_prohibit_quote_without_use): New rule. * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Adjust offsets.
2007-06-15Clarify what "cat" documentation means by "blank" lines.Paul Eggert
* doc/coreutils.texi (cat invocation): "Blank" lines actually mean empty lines. * src/cat.c (usage): Say that "nonblank" means nonempty. Clarify --squeeze-blank.
2007-06-13rmdir: give better diagnosticsJim Meyering
* src/rmdir.c (remove_parents): Give a more descriptive/consistent diagnostic upon failure. (main): Likewise. Suggestion from Joey Hess. * THANKS: Add Joey Hess.
2007-06-13Don't include "quotearg.h" when it is not used.Jim Meyering
* Makefile.maint (sc_prohibit_quotearg_without_use): New rule. * src/cp.c: Don't include "quotearg.h". It wasn't used.

2007-06-10bug-fix: cp would fail to write through a dangling symlinkJim Meyering
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix. * src/copy.c (copy_reg): When open fails with EEXIST, the destination is lstat'able, and a symlink, call open again, but now without O_EXCL. * tests/cp/thru-dangling: New file, to test for the above fix. * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add thru-dangling. * THANKS: Add Michael McLagan. Bug report from Michael McLagan in <http://bugzilla.redhat.com/243588>.
2007-06-06* coreutils.texi (rmdir invocation): Fix a tiny typo.Jim Meyering
2007-06-04doc: -h and --human-readable are equivalent to --block-size=human-readablePaul Eggert
* doc/coreutils.texi (Common options): Mention that -h and --human-readable are equivalent to --block-size=human-readable. Documentation problem reported by Steve Ward in <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2007-06/msg00007.html>. (du invocation): Use optSi rather than duplicating the macro's contents (incorrectly, since we claimed a "B" was output).
2007-06-03Remove constants.texi from version control.Jim Meyering
This file has always been generated. * .gitignore: Add constants.texi. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2007-06-02Add to .cvsignore and .gitignore files.Jim Meyering
2007-05-31Pull printf-related code from gnulib, rather than using forked copy.Jim Meyering
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Don't avoid size_max and xsize modules. While I dislike xsize-style overflow avoidance, maintaining a forked version of e.g., vasnprintf.c was too much work. * lib/printf-parse.c, lib/vasnprintf.c, lib/unicodeio.c: Remove local copies, so we now get these files from gnulib.
2007-05-31* src/dircolors.hin: Add screen-256color.Jim Meyering
Suggested by sdl.web@gmail.com in <http://bugzilla.redhat.com/239266>.
2007-05-31* TODO: Add an entry for comm --output-delimiter=STRJim Meyering
2007-05-26wc: ignore multibyte-character decoding errorsJames Youngman
* src/wc.c (wc): Don't issue an error message when mbrtowc indicates that we have seen an invalid byte sequence. This makes "wc /bin/sh" bearable (though the word and line counts are likely not to be useful). * NEWS: Mention the change.
2007-05-26Add to .cvsignore and .gitignore files.Jim Meyering
2007-05-22Check for an up-to-date copyright year in coreutils.texi.Jim Meyering
* Makefile.maint (copyright-check): Also check for an up-to-date copyright year in doc/$().texi, if that file exists. * doc/coreutils.texi: Add 2007 to list of Copyright years. Reported by Karl Berry.
