* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add the following:
netinet_in, sys_ioctl, sys_wait, so that we can eliminate
the #if HAVE_<header>_H tests guarding their header inclusions.
Now that even MinGW provides ftruncate, we know that all
reasonable portability targets provide this function.
Remove the workaround code. We nearly removed the gnulib
module three years ago:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnulib.bugs/9203
and it is now officially "obsolete".
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove ftruncate.
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Remove use of HAVE_FTRUNCATE and its
no-longer-used workaround code.
* src/truncate.c: Remove a comment about handling missing ftruncate.
* configure.ac: Require autoconf-2.62 and automake-1.11.1 or newer.
* bootstrap.conf (buildreq): Require automake-1.11.1 or newer,
to ensure people use a version with the fix for CVE-2009-4029.
Note that the coreutils-8.2 tarball included a fixed Makefile.in.
Require autoconf-2.62, per automake.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove the strverscmp module
which is not used since commit e505736f, on 03-10-2008,
"ls and sort: use filevercmp instead of strverscmp"
If stdin or stdout is closed, then freopen(,stderr) can violate
the premise that STDERR_FILENO==fileno(stderr), which in turn
breaks mktemp -q.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add freopen-safer.
* src/mktemp.c (includes): Use stdio--.h.
* tests/misc/close-stdout: Enhance test to catch bug.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add do-release-commit-and-tag.
* build-aux/do-release-commit-and-tag: Remove file. Now it's in gnulib.
* gnulib: Update submodule to the latest, to get the just-moved script.
* src/mktemp.c (main): Remove just-created file if stdout had
problems.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add remove.
* tests/misc/close-stdout: Test it.
* NEWS: Document it.
* gl/lib/mbsalign.c (mbsalign): Mark unused parameter.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove obsolete
rename-dest-slash.
* gnulib-tests/Makefile.am (AM_CFLAGS): Reduce set of warnings for
gnulib tests.
* gl/modules/rename-tests.diff (Makefile.am): New file, to add
LIBINTL to LDADD, since we avoid canonicalize-lgpl module.
* gl/lib/regcomp.c.diff (regerror, calc_next)
(build_collating_symbol, parse_bracket_element, build_equiv_class)
(free_tree): Mark unused parameters.
* gl/lib/regex_internal.h.diff (re_string_elem_size_at): New file,
to mark unused parameters.
* gl/lib/printf-args.c.diff (PRINTF_FETCHARGS): New file, to avoid
type mismatch.
* gl/lib/vasnprintf.c (VASNPRINTF): New file, to avoid shadowing
local variable name.
* .gitignore: Ignore temporary build artifacts.
* src/env.c (main): Use unsetenv rather than putenv to remove
items from environ, and check for failure.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add unsetenv.
* tests/misc/env: Test this.
* NEWS: Document it.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add gnu-web-doc-update.
Remove gendocs, since gnu-web-doc-update depends on it.
* gnu-web-doc-update: Remove file, now that we get it from gnulib.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add freopen, strsignal, fsync.
Exposed via make CFLAGS=-DGNULIB_POSIXCHECK 2>&1 \
|perl -lne '/.* use gnulib module (\S+).*/ and print $1' \
|sort |uniq -c|sort -nr
(avoided_gnulib_modules): Don't avoid the "lock" module.
Now it's required, as a dependency of the strsignal module.
* bootstrap (bootstrap_epilogue): Define a default, empty function.
Remove coreutils-specific code, and instead,
invoke this new function at the end of this script.
* bootstrap.conf (bootstrap_epilogue): Define, to override the default.
* bootstrap.conf (obsolete_gnulib_modules): Move rename...
(gnulib_modules): ...here. Add symlink.
* NEWS: Document the change in readlink.
* doc/coreutils.texi (readlink invocation): Likewise.
* tests/readlink/can-f: Update test to new semantics, and add test
of loop.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Drop rmdir-errno.
* src/rmdir.c (errno_rmdir_non_empty): Check both cases allowed by
POSIX, rather than relying on configure-time check that might
fail during cross-compilation. Reverts commit 9b6eb98d41.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add faccessat. Replace strdup
with strdup-posix.
* m4/jm-macros.m4 (coreutils_MACROS): Revert previous change, now
that gnulib does it for us.
* src/remove.c (write_protected_non_symlink): Use faccessat in
more situations.
Before this change, :>f; ln -T f no-such/ would succeed on Solaris 10.
After it, ln fails, as it should: ln: accessing `z/': Not a directory
The command, link f no-such/, had the same problem on that system.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add "link".
* tests/ln/slash-decorated-nonexistent-dest: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* NEWS (Portability): Mention the improvement.
* bootstrap.conf (obsolete_gnulib_modules): Remove memchr from
the list, now that it fixes a problem in some modern C libraries.
(gnulib_modules): Add it here.
Use gnulib's new priv-set module and updated write-any-file.
With them, the remove-called can_write_any_file function no
longer tries to drop the unlink-directory privilege, so now
each caller of remove must do that separately, calling
priv_set_remove_linkdir.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add priv-set.
* src/rm.c: Include "priv-set.h".
(main): Call priv_set_remove_linkdir.
* src/mv.c (main): Likewise.
* gnulib: Update submodule to latest.
Reported by Samuel Thibault and Stéphane Raimbault, as the glibc fr_FR
locale has recently changed to use the official but variable width
abbreviated month names. Other glibc locales also have variable widths.
http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-locales/2008-q1/msg00035.htmlhttp://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9859
* NEWS: Mention the fix
* gl/lib/mbsalign.c: A new module to align and truncate a
string in a specified number of screen cells, while handling
multi-byte characters appropriately.
* gl/lib/mbsalign.h: Ditto
* gl/modules/mbsalign: Ditto
* bootstrap.conf: Reference the new module
* src/ls.c (abmon_init): New function, precompute the abbreviated
months aligned left in a minimum width column <= 5 screen cells.
(align_nstrftime): New function, replace the first %b in the
format specification to strftime with the precomputed month string.
Note using the cached month strings speeds up `ls -lU` by around 17%
on glibc-2.7-2 on linux at least. Also if we implement this function
using heap storage rather than automatic storage, and use snprintf
instead of strcpy, ls will slow down by 2% and 1% respectively
(i.e. a net gain of 14% rather than 17%).
* tests/ls/abmon-align: A new test to test ls alignment for
various formats and locales
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add manywarnings.
* configure.ac: Use gl_MANYWARN_ALL_GCC, and exclude options
I don't want or that provoke too many warnings.
(WARN_CFLAGS, WERROR_CFLAGS): Define.
(lint, GNULIB_PORTCHECK): Define.
(_FORTIFY_SOURCE): Define to 2.

as-obsolete module.
