Public bug reported:
uutils ls -l formatting bug with ACL marker on NFS directory
On Ubuntu 26.04, /usr/bin/ls is provided by uutils:
$ /usr/bin/ls --version
ls (uutils coreutils) 0.8.0
GNU ls is available as gnuls:
$ /usr/bin/gnuls --version
ls (GNU coreutils) 9.7
On an NFSv4 directory, uutils ls formats long listings incorrectly:
$ LC_ALL=C /usr/bin/ls -l ~/MANUF_logs/ | sed -n '1,3p'
total 1603480
-rw-r--r--+1 nobody nogroup 11562 Oct 5 2017 -2017-10.csv
The ACL marker "+" is printed directly adjacent to the link count.
Expected output should contain a separator, e.g. "+ 1", or otherwise
match GNU ls behavior.
Interestingly, listing a single file is formatted differently:
$ LC_ALL=C /usr/bin/ls -ld ~/MANUF_logs/CAS-TA0-2026-04.csv
-rw-r--r--+ 1 nobody nogroup 6275 Apr 9 12:13
/home/rino/MANUF_logs/CAS-TA0-2026-04.csv
So the bug appears specifically in directory long-listing mode.
