[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: coreutils-6.10-2


-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

A new release of coreutils, 6.10-2, has been uploaded, replacing 6.10-1 as
current for cygwin 1.5.x, and leaving 6.9-5 as the previous version.
(Users of experimental cygwin 1.7.0 are not impacted by this update).

NEWS:
=====
This is a minor package update built with a newer toolchain, and timed to
match the obsoletion of the mktemp package (now that coreutils provides
mktemp).  There should be no changes in functionality from 6.10-1.

See also the upstream documentation in /usr/share/doc/coreutils-6.10/.

DESCRIPTION:
============
GNU coreutils provides a collection of commonly used utilities essential
to a standard POSIX environment.  It comprises the former textutils,
sh-utils, and fileutils packages.  The following executables are included:

[ arch base64 basename cat chcon chgrp chmod chown chroot cksum comm cp
csplit cut date dd df dir dircolors dirname du echo env expand expr factor
false fmt fold gkill groups head hostid hostname id install join link ln
logname ls md5sum mkdir mkfifo mknod mktemp mv nice nl nohup od paste
