First, a big congrats to Francesco for your persistence, patience, and a good patch. As evidenced by other threads on this list, too many people give up when they are told that copyright assignment must be made, or that their patch is incomplete or needs to be reworked, or that more justification is needed before the patch would be accepted. I do think, however, that we needs a followup patch for optimization on systems with a valid d_type. I also wonder if the new macro DEFINE_SORT_FUNCTIONS and LIST_SORTFUNCTION_VARIANTS will cause a problem on a platform where basename is defined as a macro in <libgen.h>, since these macros used `basename' as a macro parameter (in general, it is a good idea to name macro parameters with something not reserved by a standards document). However, it didn't bother me enough to patch it. 2006-04-29 Eric Blake <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * src/ls.c (main): On systems with d_type, directories_first only implies format_needs_type, not format_needs_stat. -- Eric Blake Index: src/ls.c =================================================================== RCS file: /sources/coreutils/coreutils/src/ls.c,v retrieving revision 1.410 diff -u -p -r1.410 ls.c --- src/ls.c 23 Apr 2006 21:35:04 -0000 1.410 +++ src/ls.c 29 Apr 2006 15:45:51 -0000 @@ -1229,11 +1229,11 @@ main (int argc, char **argv) format_needs_stat = sort_type == sort_time || sort_type == sort_size || format == long_format - || print_block_size - || directories_first; + || print_block_size; format_needs_type = (! format_needs_stat && (recursive || print_with_color - || indicator_style != none)); + || indicator_style != none + || directories_first)); if (dired) { @@ -3029,9 +3029,9 @@ static int xstrcoll_version (V a, V b) static int rev_xstrcoll_version (V a, V b) { return cmp_version (b, a); } static int xstrcoll_df_version (V a, V b) -{ DIRFIRST_CHECK (a,b); return cmp_version (a, b); } +{ DIRFIRST_CHECK (a, b); return cmp_version (a, b); } static int rev_xstrcoll_df_version (V a, V b) -{ DIRFIRST_CHECK (a,b); return cmp_version (b, a); } +{ DIRFIRST_CHECK (a, b); return cmp_version (b, a); } /* We have 2^3 different variants for each sortkey function _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
