coreutils 5.96-5ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

coreutils (5.96-5ubuntu1) edgy; urgency=low

  * Merge from debian unstable.
  * Update `60_ubuntu-force-clobber-specials.patch' to 1. work
    on fifos too and 2. not have a race which can make it overwrite
    things when -f (or equivalent) is not supplied.
  * Replace `99a_fix_cp_manpage': the old patch edited an cp.1 which is an
    an output file.  Instead, use the patch from Jim Meyering's message of
    6.2.2006 in Debian #351601.
  * Remaining Ubuntu differences:
    - 60_ubuntu-force-clobber-specials.patch (improved; reported upstream).
    - 99a_fix_cp_manpage (improved; Debian #351606, Malone #30155).
    - 98_fix_chmod_manpage (Malone #24896)
    - Slight improvement to references for md5sum diversion in
      coreutils.preinst (See comments in Debian #340119).
  * Differences incorporated by Debian so no longer carried by Ubuntu:
    - Mad md5sum diversion fixups.  (5.93-5ubuntu5 and earlier.)

coreutils (5.96-5) unstable; urgency=low

  * [62] fix segfault when diropen fails on remove  Closes: #375333
  * [63] warn on append with trunc Closes: #373736
  * fix idiotic typo in build rules for hurd Closes: #344166

coreutils (5.96-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fix deprecation messages Closes: #375335
  * Try to clobber chcon man page build on hurd Closes: #344166

coreutils (5.96-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * Follow strategy from Ian Jackson to better deal with the dpkg md5sum
    mess. Only remove dpkg's mad md5sum diversion `once' (ie, on upgrade
    from non-/usr/bin/md5sum-supplying coreutils).  This preserves any later
    sysadmin-installed diversions of md5sum.textutils.
  * Add NEWS.Debian notes on the POSIX2_VERSION change
  * add who --ips option to display IPs instead of hostnames. Code taken
    from last.c in sysvinit-2.86.ds1.
    Closes: #363126

coreutils (5.96-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * [60] Add deprecation warnings for tail +n and sort +n, but allow that
    syntax
  * Build-depend on autoconf 2.59.cvs.2006.05.25-1 to avoid bug that could
    affect coreutils performance. Backporters may be able to weaken that
    dependency.

coreutils (5.96-1) unstable; urgency=low

coreutils (5.94-1) unstable; urgency=low

      and added a new --printf option with the new behavior
      (Closes: #339136)
    - tail -f works on append-only files again (Closes: #339400)
    - tail -c 3 works again (Closes: #340364)
    - tail -0f work for multiple files (but use -n 0 -f instead)
      (Closes: #341785)
