Fixes a regression introduced on Mar 6 2009, by commit a4053c5291d5797734b3e4f042f9e1adf3944fd6 * src/pr.c (print_header): Ensure that there is at least one space before and after the file name part of the header line. * NEWS: Mention it. * tests/pr/W20l24f-ll: s/xPage/ x Page/. * THANKS: Update. Reported by Denis McKeon, in https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?28492. ls: fix color of broken symlinks colored as target 2010-01-01T20:41:46Z Eric Blake ebb9@byu.net 2010-01-01T14:39:29Z urn:sha1:b7f2b51c42edabd516c5ecc748a654da736c912c * src/ls.c (print_color_indicator): When using 'LINK target' in dircolors, treat broken symlink as C_ORPHAN. * tests/misc/ls-misc (sl-dangle2, sl-dangle3, sl-dangle4) (sl-dangle5): Test for it, and add more coverage. * NEWS: Document it. * THANKS: Update. Reported by Chris Jones. doc: update tail's documentation to allow for new -F semantics 2009-12-31T08:42:52Z Jim Meyering meyering@redhat.com 2009-12-30T13:23:45Z urn:sha1:f428e548e52d76a5ed729a2cba9a05f93dad40d9 * src/tail.c (usage): Reword tail -F description, so that it no longer mentions details specific to the non-inotify implementation. Also, join diagnostic strings (while staying under the 509-byte limit) to ease formatting of translations. The latter was prompted by a report from Stéphane Raimbault. * doc/coreutils.texi (tail invocation): Update description here, too. touch: work around ntfs-3g bug 2009-12-31T03:33:39Z Eric Blake ebb9@byu.net 2009-12-30T14:36:03Z urn:sha1:7e0c2b9a59a610454875340e315d93448fffdb38 * gnulib: Update, for utimensat fix. * NEWS: Improve wording about touch fixes. * THANKS: Update.

Reported by John Stanley. tests: tail-without-inotify: avoid spurious test failure 2009-12-12T16:40:42Z Jim Meyering meyering@redhat.com 2009-12-12T13:44:46Z urn:sha1:d9ba88597409c6c3f89c2ab173369cc1ec26507d * tests/tail-2/wait: Account for the possibility that the kernel lacks inotify support.

Meanwhile, we were not using xalloc_die properly. Both issues are better solved in gnulib, by introducing xgetgroups; this patch uses the new interface. Regression introduced by commit 6a31fd8d7. * gnulib: Update, for mgetgroups improvments. * src/id.c (print_full_info): Adjust caller to die on allocation failure, and no longer worry about ENOSYS. * src/group-list.c (print_group_list): Likewise. * src/setuidgid.c (main): Likewise. * NEWS: Mention the fix. * THANKS: Update.
