Re: Coreutils musings...

I tried compiling coreutils-5.2.0 and I didn't see many problems with that. Another problem I see is that coreutils will cause conflicts with other packages: textutils, sh-utils and fileutils. Obviously coreutils is intended to replace these packages so these packages would need to be withdrawn if coreutils was included with cygwin.

Feel free to ignore this posting.


I didn't search the archives for coreutils before sending this message (sorry). I was mainly looking for confirmation that coreutils was intended to replace all three of the *utils packages and it's obvious from the archives that this is the case.

I'll research the archives more thoroughly before posting about coreutils again.
