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.
2007-11-03Change the first '-' to '.' in the snapshot version string,Jim Meyering
e.g., 6.9-377-08144 -> 6.9.377-08144 * build-aux/git-version-gen: ... and add comments.
2007-11-03seq: add another test for the %% bugJim Meyering
* tests/misc/seq (fmt-c): Test the other fixed case, too.
2007-11-03Fix bug with "seq 10.8 0.1 10.95", plus another bug with %% in format.Paul Eggert
* NEWS: Mention the %%-in-format bug fix. * src/seq.c (struct layout): New type. (long_double_format): New arg LAYOUT. Fill it in. Fix mishandling of %% in formats. (print_numbers): New arg LAYOUT. Don't convert LAST to output format when deciding whether to go slightly past LAST. Instead, convert X to output format and back. This fixes a bug reported by Andreas Schwab in <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2007-10/msg00237.html> where "seq 10.8 0.1 10.95" would output 11.0 on platforms where 10.95 rounds to a value that prints as 11.0 when only one digit past the decimal point is asked for. (main): Compute layout, for benefit of print_numbers. * tests/misc/seq (float-3): Undo previous change, since the bug should be fixed now. (fmt-b): New test, for the %% bug.
2007-11-01tests/misc/printf-surprise: Correct sed transform.Jim Meyering
Reported by Bob Proulx.
2007-11-01Add example inspired by "make dist" running gzip and lzma in sequence.Jim Meyering
* doc/coreutils.texi (tee invocation): Show how to run tar just once, compressing the tee'd output streams in parallel.
2007-11-01Say that the first process substitution example is contrived.Jim Meyering
* doc/coreutils.texi (tee invocation): ... and show how to do it properly. Pointed out by James Antill.
2007-11-01Use mktemp, not mkdtemp, to create test directories.Jim Meyering
* tests/test-lib.sh: Use the mktemp binary we've just built, not the mkdtemp script. * tests/mkdtemp: Remove file. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove mkdtemp.
2007-11-01Adjust a seq subtest not to depend on the vagaries of floating point.Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/seq (float-3): Use 10.94 as the endpoint, not 10.95, since 10.95 was precisely in the middle of the interval, and with a %.1f format could map to either 10.9 or 11.0. Reported by Mike Frysinger
2007-11-01Make the new printf-surprise test more precise.Jim Meyering
* tests/test-lib.sh (require_ulimit_): New function. * tests/misc/printf-surprise: Use ulimit -v to trigger the fixed bug, and rather than checking printf's exit status (which would go wrong on FreeBSD 6.1, since their printf(3) function doesn't require lots of memory in this case) simply test whether it outputs the first 10 bytes.
2007-11-01Accommodate FreeBSD 6.1 hard-link-to-symlink differences.Jim Meyering
* tests/cp/same-file: Detect when linking to a symlink links to the target of the symlink (FreeBSD 6.1 does this, Linux does not), and skip the few tests that would otherwise fail. Redirect output of final comparison to stderr, since all stdout is already redirected.
2007-10-31Fix a "make distcheck" failure.Jim Meyering
* Makefile.maint (my-distcheck): Don't stub-out dirname, since build-aux/check.mk now uses it.
2007-10-31* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add xprintf-posix.Jim Meyering
2007-10-30Avoid seq floating-point test failure on FreeBSD 6.1.Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/seq (float-4): Also accept -0.0.
2007-10-29Change a "make dist" diagnostic.Jim Meyering
* GNUmakefile: Don't imply that $(_curr-ver) is the new version string.
2007-10-29Improve color terminal escape usage.Bob Proulx
* build-aux/check.mk (am__tty_colors): Use 'tput' to deduce terminal color capabilities.
2007-10-29Don't try to colorize a dumb terminal.Jim Meyering
* build-aux/check.mk (am__tty_colors): Skip colors if $TERM is "dumb". Thanks to Bob Proulx.
2007-10-29Remove gnulib's printf-posix module, for now.Jim Meyering
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): It caused too many test failures.
2007-10-29Remove spurious semicolon after "else".Jim Meyering
* build-aux/check.mk (am__tty_colors): Fix syntax error.
2007-10-29Attribute suggestion for last change.Jim Meyering
2007-10-29If $TERM is empty, don't use colors. This helps the buildbot,Jim Meyering
since it produces its result in an environment with a tty, but we don't want color codes in that case. * build-aux/check.mk (am__tty_colors): Test for nonempty $TERM.
2007-10-29Always initialize terminal colorization string variables.Jim Meyering
* build-aux/check.mk (am__tty_colors): Always initialize red, grn, etc., In case they're defined in the environment.
2007-10-29Avoid test failure in non-srcdir build vs. the git tree.Jim Meyering
* tests/check.mk (vc_exe_in_TESTS): Run this test only in a srcdir build directory. Reported by Andreas Schwab.
2007-10-28Define ENOTSUP, not ENOSYS. Needed on OpenBSD 3.9.Jim Meyering
* gl/lib/se-context.in.h (ENOTSUP): Define if missing. * gl/lib/se-selinux.in.h: Likewise.
2007-10-28Define ENODATA, for FreeBSD 5.0 and 6.1.Jim Meyering
* src/system.h (ENODATA): Define, if missing.
2007-10-28Run autoreconf, not just autoconf, to avoid warnings.Jim Meyering
* GNUmakefile (dummy): Otherwise, we'd sometimes get a warning about autoconf version mismatch between what was used to generate aclocal.m4 and the currently-running autoconf.
2007-10-28Require gnulib's printf-posix module, to support Interix.Jim Meyering
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add printf-posix.
2007-10-28Help xgettext recognize more printf-style format strings.Jim Meyering
* bootstrap.conf (XGETTEXT_OPTIONS): Add directives for error, error_at_line, xasprintf, xfprintf and xprintf.
2007-10-27Adjust format string so msgfmt doesn't object.Jim Meyering
* src/df.c (main): Use "%s%s" (not %smsg) to print "msg" with or without a "Warning: " prefix. Reported by Clytie Siddall.
2007-10-27Clean up tests/Makefile.am.Jim Meyering
* tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove $(TESTS). No longer defined. (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Remove definition.
