Summary: coreutils-6.5 → coreutils-6.6

Now coreutils-6.6:

  • Noteworthy changes in release 6.6 (2006-11-22) [stable]

Bug fixes

ls would segfault (dereference a NULL pointer) for a file with a nameless group or owner. This bug was introduced in coreutils-6.5.

A bug in the latest official m4/gettext.m4 (from gettext-0.15) made configure fail to detect gettext support, due to the unusual way in which coreutils uses AM_GNU_GETTEXT.

Improved robustness

Now, du (and the other fts clients: chmod, chgrp, chown) honor a trailing slash in the name of a symlink-to-directory even on Solaris 9, by working around its buggy fstatat implementation.
