The column formatting of the plain "df" output is misaligned, making it

df (GNU coreutils) 5.96
Thanks for the report.
That's probably fixed in the latest stable release: coreutils-6.9.
If not, please let us know.
Still broken for me:
It's to do with your locale:
$ head -n1 /etc/issue
Ubuntu 9.10 \n \l
$ dpkg -s coreutils | grep Version
Version: 7.4-2ubuntu1
$for LANG in en_AU.utf8 en_IE.utf8; do df | head -n2; done

Interestingly I can't reproduce it on fedora 11 (coreutils-7.2) or
fedora 12 (coreutils-7.6), or on en_AU on unbuntu.
Note coreutils doesn't provide english variant translations,
while ubuntu does, so I'm guessing it's an issue with the
en_AU ubuntu coreutils translation?
I think you're right. I'll report it.
$ head -n1 /etc/issue
Ubuntu 9.10 \n \l
$ dpkg -s coreutils | grep Version
Version: 7.4-2ubuntu1
env | grep LANG
LANG=en_AU.UTF-8
GDM_LANG=en_AU.UTF-8
$ for LANG in C en_AU.utf8 en_IE.utf8; do df | head -n2; done

$ egrep "(LC|LOCALE|LANG)" /etc/profile
# that's set by LANG=en_US.UTF-8
export LC_COLLATE=C
However, df -P works (except for large drives).
I'll look at fixing the alignment for large drives soon.
That would be good, too.
cheers,
Pádraig.
Many thanks! And sorry for my slow reply.
