Remove the "gnits" option; it prohibits my using "+" as a version

string suffix, and all it does (beyond the default "gnu" option) is to _require_ the THANKS file. * configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Remove it. Remove all AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS settings in Makefile.am files. * tests/chgrp/Makefile.am, tests/chmod/Makefile.am: * tests/chown/Makefile.am, tests/cp/Makefile.am: * tests/du/Makefile.am, tests/expr/Makefile.am: * tests/factor/Makefile.am, tests/general/Makefile.am: * tests/install/Makefile.am, tests/ln/Makefile.am: * tests/ls/Makefile.am, tests/mkdir/Makefile.am: * tests/mv/Makefile.am, tests/readlink/Makefile.am: * tests/rm/Makefile.am, tests/rmdir/Makefile.am: * tests/seq/Makefile.am, tests/stty/Makefile.am: * tests/tee/Makefile.am, tests/touch/Makefile.am:

Put CU_TEST_NAME in the environment for each test run by "make check".

2007-01-13T10:32:19Z

* Transform all Makefile.am files so that when running "make check", CU_TEST_NAME is set to the name of the test. This is so that when I run valgrind-enabled (--log-file-qualifier=CU_TEST_NAME) "make check" on the entire package it is more convenient to map a leak or error found in a valgrind log file back to the offending test. Use this command: (echo tests/Makefile.am.in; find tests -name Makefile.am) \ |xargs perl -pi -e '/^(\s*)PATH=...VG_PATH_PREFIX/ and ' \ -e 'print $1,q|CU_TEST_NAME=`basename $(abs_srcdir)`,$$tst |,"\\\n"'

Now, "ls -FRL" always follows symbolic links on Linux.

* NEWS: Mention this bug fix. * src/ls.c (gobble_file): Fix bug reported by Nobuyuki Tsuchimura in http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-12/msg00152.html where "ls -FRL" didn't follow a symbolic link in some cases on Linux. * tests/ls/follow-slink: Add a test for this case. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering

Add a root-only test for today's lib/idcache.c fix.

Suggestions from Bruno Haible.

* tests/ls/stat-dtype: Use a dynamic test to decide whether the

2006-10-05T22:10:08Z

current file system has useful d_type info.

* tests/ls/stat-dtype: Don't use tmpfs on linux-2.4 or older,

2006-09-24T07:27:00Z

since that predated addition of d_type support.

* tests/ls/stat-vs-dirent: Fix quoting problem in diagnostic

2006-09-18T16:34:27Z

indicating flaw in kernel. Reword to say that the flaw isn't serious for coreutils, since the flaw does affect ls -i.

This test was failing in some environments.

2006-08-26T18:44:52Z

* tests/ls/color-dtype-dir: Don't rely on eval "`dircolors -b`" to set LS_COLORS in the environment. * tests/envvar-check: Instead, ensure that LS_COLORS is not set. Reported by Bob Proulx.
