Change logs for coreutils source package in Hardy

  • coreutils (6.10-3ubuntu2) hardy; urgency=low
    
      * debian/rules, debian/control: invoke autoconf during the build so
        that the patch to use getgrouplist will really take effect.
        LP: #203723.

  • coreutils (6.10-3ubuntu1) hardy; urgency=low
    
      * Merge from Debian; remaining changes:
        - 60_ubuntu-force-clobber-specials.patch: Cause cp to replace special
          files when "-a -f" is specified, and the special already exists; instead
          of just erroring. (Reported upstream in
          http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-07/msg00018.html).
          Updated for 6.10.
        - debian/coreutils.preinst: Add bug numbers in comment.
    
    coreutils (6.10-3) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * [71] use getgrouplist to get list of groups, e.g., for id(1)
        (Closes: #459615)
      * [72] display warning if user is in too many groups
        (Closes: #175994)
      * [73] prevent segfault in ls -l /proc/sys/fs/inotify/
        (Thanks Jan Moringen) (Closes: #463043)
      * Try upstream fix for info references in man pages
        (Closes: #388684)
      * Upstream change in documentation for mv in the case of a
        moving a symlink to a directory with a trailing '/'
        (Closes: #343652)
      * move kill to /bin on hurd (Closes: #380387)
      * Fix some minor typos/formatting in debian packaging
      * Add link to upstream FAQ in README.Debian
    
    coreutils (6.10-2) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * run make check with VERBOSE enabled; this no longer makes the logs
        unreadably huge (thanks Julien Cristau for asking the obvious
        question)
      * print cpu info during build to help debug build failures
      * bump policy version
      * lose perl-base & bzip2 build-deps. Someday need to support lzma tarball
      * drop more legacy fileutils/shellutils/textutils upgrade support.
        hopefully people have finished upgrading to etch
    
    coreutils (6.10-1) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * new upstream release
        - cp, by default, refuses to copy through a dangling destination symlink
          Set POSIXLY_CORRECT if you require the old, risk-prone behavior.
    
    coreutils (6.10~20071127-1) experimental; urgency=low
    
      * new snapshot
      * coreutils now includes mktemp, but it is not included in this package
        because debian already has a mktemp package with similar syntax.
    
    coreutils (6.10~20070907-3) experimental; urgency=low
    
      * use correct upstream changelog
      * make su suid on hurd again (Closes: #439249)
    
    coreutils (6.10~20070907-2) experimental; urgency=low
    
      * forgot to add bison to build-deps
    
    coreutils (6.10~20070907-1) experimental; urgency=low
    
      * SELinux support has been integrated upstream. This may break things
        in the short term (I encourage SELinux users to test) but is
        expected to simplify coreutils development since the size of the
        debian diff is greatly reduced.
      * Bumped policy number
      * Killed off textutils/fileutils/shellutils transition packages
      * most debian patches are gone, except for whoips & dd appenderrors
        * may need some, like s390 no sha2, returned (see how autobuilds do)

        - 60_ubuntu-force-clobber-specials.patch: Cause cp to replace special
          files when "-a -f" is specified, and the special already exists; instead
          of just erroring. (Reported upstream in

        - 64_mkdir-chmod-race.patch: Avoid --mode race when using mkdir in a

        Debian
    
    coreutils (5.97-5.4) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * Non-maintainer upload.
      * New patch 64_coreutils-futimens: rename futimens to cu_futimens,
        since glibc now defines an futimens function with a different
        prototype.  Closes: #433394.
      * Urgency medium for the RC bug fix.
