Problems with coreutils-6.10.176-383b1.tar.gz

2008-04-08 Thread Peter Fales

I'm testing the latest coreutils snapshot (6.10.176-383b1) on several
platforms and on three of them, the seq command is failing in "make check"

On Solaris 8 (sparc), Solaris 8 (intel), and SGI Irix 6.2, the command;

src/seq 0.8 0.1 0.9000

prints

0.8

On the other platforms (and with earlier releases of the seq command), it
prints the expected:

0.8
0.9

ls: sort on -s

2008-04-08 Thread jidanni
I'm at the emacs' dired prompt,
   ls switches (must contain -l): -ogsS
when I realized that -S is not good enough.
What I want is an additional way to sort: on the -s sizes!
> Just do ls -sog|sort -nr
I hear you saying.
But I can't. This is dired I'm in.
