https://git.shady.money/coreutils/atom?h=v7.32009-04-30T11:50:40Zbuild: "make check" now fails in a friendlier manner for missing Perl2009-04-30T11:50:40ZJim Meyeringmeyering@redhat.com2009-04-30T11:50:40Zurn:sha1:0e945ebcc5cb018771819f8b91737db3298bab02
* doc/Makefile.am (sc-lower-case-var): Don't redirect stderr of
$(PERL) (which is sometimes build-aux/missing) to /dev/null,
so that a failing "make check" explains that Perl is not installed.
Reported by James Youngman.

shred,sort,shuf: don't use /dev/urandom by default2009-04-07T18:01:46ZPádraig BradyP@draigBrady.com2009-04-06T07:42:15Zurn:sha1:af5723c71e3efbfe60266162ebb5d07b45d72725
Suggestion from Steven Schveighoffer at:
