* configure.ac: Adjust help text for --disable-bold-man-page-references,
and also define BOLD_MAN_REFS.
* src/ls.c (oputs): Output bold iff BOLD_MAN_REFS is defined.
* src/ls.c (oputs): A new function that wraps puts(),
but also highlights the --option-text portion, and
adds links to the appropriate part of the online manual.
(usage): Call oputs() rather than puts().
* doc/coreutils.texi (--help): Document new HELP_NO_MARKUP env var,
which can be used in the edge case one wants to suppress ansi escapes.
* tests/misc/getopt_vs_usage.sh: Use HELP_NO_MARKUP to ensure the
test continues to pass.
Following commit v9.9-109-gcd5229222
* src/cksum.c (PROGRAM_NAME): In legacy mode, i.e., when built
as a single binary, set the PROGRAM_NAME dynamically based on
the selected digest type. This is significant in --help
to ensure the correct texinfo node is referenced, and in
--version to ensure the correct utility name is output.
* tests/misc/sync.sh: Check 'sync fifo' with no arguments, -d, and -f
separately. Only perform the check for -f if RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes
since it may be expensive.
A simpler fix than commit v9.9-4-g3b6efd555
which is less dependent on the exact behavior
of a multi-call binary.
* tests/env/env.sh: Use a local script rather than 'true'.
which may be a symlinked multi-call binary.
https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/pull/174
* .gitignore (/build-aux/makeinfo-wrapper.sh):
* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove build-aux/makeinfo-wrapper.sh.
* build-aux/makeinfo-wrapper.sh.in: New file, renamed from
build-aux/makeinfo-wrapper.sh and modified to use @MAKEINFO@ instead of
makeinfo.
* cfg.mk (MAKEINFO): Remove variable.
* configure.ac: Add build-aux/makeinfo-wrapper.sh as a configure file.
* doc/local.mk (MAKEINFO): Define to
$(abs_top_builddir)/build-aux/makeinfo-wrapper.sh.
(AM_MAKEINFOFLAGS): Move over some values from the previous MAKEINFO
definition.
* tests/misc/coreutils.sh: Be more flexibile by using `command -v`
to identify the binary to be executed, rather than linking
directly to the built binary.
* src/uptime.c (print_uptime): Add a timezone_t cast to zero. Don't use
nullptr since timezone_t is not a standardized and may be defined to
something other than a pointer.
* src/basenc.c (long_options):
* src/chcon.c (change_file_context):
* src/copy.c (is_ancestor):
* src/env.c (build_argv):
* src/expr.c (nomoreargs):
* src/factor.c (mp_no_factors):
* src/ls.c (long_options, main):
* src/selinux.c (defaultcon, restorecon_private):
* src/shred.c (dopass):
* src/shuf.c (long_opts):
* src/tac.c (output):
* src/test.c (term):
* src/uniq.c (check_file): Do not use ‘0’ as a null pointer
constant. Although it is typically valid C, there are exceptions
(e.g., stdarg) and it a bit cleaner to be consistent. This patch
uses NULL, not nullptr, as I have second thoughts about nullptr;
see <https://bugs.gnu.org/66221#53>.
Setup
$ ln -nsf src/coreutils foo
Before
$ ./foo; echo $?
foo: unknown program ‘foo’
Try './foo --help' for more information.
1
./foo --version; echo $?
coreutils (GNU coreutils) 9.9.172-01993
0
After
$ ./foo; echo $?
coreutils: unknown program 'foo'
1
$ ./foo --version; echo $?
coreutils: unknown program 'foo'
1
* src/coreutils.c (main): Don't process options if
we don't know they're intended for the multi-call binary.
Otherwise `foo --version` would return true, even though
foo was symlinked to the multi-call binary, but not supported.
* tests/misc/coreutils.sh: Add test cases.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
GCC 10.2 gave the following error:
"error: a label can only be part of a statement
and a declaration is not a statement"
* src/fold.c (fold_file): Add a ";" to avoid C2X specific syntax.
* src/cat.c (copy_cat):
* src/copy-file-data.c (sparse_copy):
Don’t treat EFBIG as a reportable error from copy_file_range.
If the input is at EOF and the output position is 2**63 - 1,
copy_file_range (ifd, NULL, ofd, NULL, 2146435072, 0)
incorrectly fails with EFBIG. Problem observed on Ubuntu 25.10
x86-64 with Linux kernel 6.17.0-8-generic #8-Ubuntu.
I am too lazy to report this kernel bug or add a coreutils test case.
* tests/misc/read-errors.sh: Ensure each utility calls a
read system call as requested. Not doing so (say by avoiding
reading from a directory) is a layering violation.
Also ensure we diagnose the particular error encountered.
* src/paste.c (collapse_escapes): This is the central --delimiters
parsing function, so adjust to handle multi-byte chars with
mcel_scanz(). Populate a delimiters length array to support
characters of differing lengths.
(paste_serial): Use the delimiters length array to output
the appropriate delimiter.
(paste_parallel): Likewise.
* tests/paste/multi-byte.sh: A new test.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
* src/paste.c (usage): Mention how lines are processed
with and without the -s option. Also mention that -d
supports backslash escapes.
* doc/coreutils.texi (paste invocation): Likewise.
Also detail the backslash escapes, noting which are non-POSIX.
* src/ptx.c: Include octhexdigits.h.
(HEXTOBIN, ISODIGIT, OCTTOBIN): Remove macros.
(unescape_string): Use the macros from octhexdigits.h instead of the
removed macros.
Following on from commit v9.8-60-g8ba47d09a ...
Without libselinux installed, runcon and chcon stub binaries
will not be built by default. We separate these utilities out
to a separate "not built unless appropriate" class, so that
we can add these to EXTRA_MANS so that the 'check-x-vs-1'
target doesn't fail, and the 'dist' target includes
these man pages.
* build-aux/gen-lists-of-programs.sh: Separate out
build_if_appropriate_progs, and propagate that through
to no_install_progs_default which populates EXTRA_MANS.
* src/local.mk: Separate out build_if_appropriate__progs
for clarity and consistency.
* gnulib: Update to latest mainly to pull in selinux module fixes.
* NEWS: Mention the build fix to honor --with-selinux building
stub chcon and runcon binaries on systems without libselinux.
* src/cksum.c (output_file, digest_check): Check if standard output has
it's error flag set after printing.
* tests/misc/write-errors.sh: Add a test case that would previously run
forever.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement. Reorder alphabetically.
