It was found thanks to the quick integration into Debian's
unstable distribution.

        * Version 4.5.7.

        * tests/mv/part-symlink: Don't assume that the file owner username
        length is less than 9 in ls output: instead, omit that field
        altogether.  Reported by, and suggested fix from, Ferdinand.

        * tests/du/restore-wd: New test for just-fixed bug in ftw.c.
        * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add restore-wd.

        * src/rm.c: Correct now-invalid comment about cycle-detection.


        * NEWS: Add entries from old/*/NEWS
        from fileutils-4.1 through 4.1.11 and
        from sh-utils-2.0 through 2.0.15.  Suggestion from Karl Berry.

        * ftw.c (ftw_startup): Don't shadow outer declaration of save_err.
        Merge inconsequential changes from libc.

        * ftw.c (ftw_startup): When using FTW_CHDIR, always remember
        the current directory, not just when DIR contains a slash.
        Reported by Manoj Srivastava via Michael Stone as Debian bug #180228.

2003-02-07  Jim Meyering  <address@hidden>

        Merge inconsequential changes from libc.
        * ftw.c: Include limits.h earlier.
        Move PATH_MAX definition `down' a little; add comment.
        Rename local, saved_errno to save_err.

        * ftw.c (lstat) [!_LIBC && !LSTAT_FOLLOWS_SLASHED_SYMLINK]:
        Define to rpl_lstat.

        * coreutils.texi: Use @command instead of @code for program names.

        * perm.texi (Mode Structure): Mention filesystem-specific
        permissions and that mounting a filesystem as read-only may
        override actual file permissions.  Use @command instead
        of @code for program names.

2003-02-06  Jim Meyering  <address@hidden>

        * coreutils.texi: Adjust alignment and mention `file, text, shell'
        on the `* Coreutils:...' dirently line.  From Karl Berry.
