Description Sandro Mani 2016-02-04 18:29:24 UTC 
Description of problem:
Following applies to any coreutils version carrying coreutils-i18n-cut.patch:

$ echo 'a_long_field_wider_than_sixty_three_characters_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX::foo' > test
$ cut -d':' -f 3 test
a_long_field_wider_than_sixty_three_characters_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

$ echo 'a_shorter_field::foo' > test
$ cut -d':' -f 3 test
foo
$

This is breaking jetring / debian-keyring builds.

Always

Thanks for report, reproducible, no workaround atm. (happens in LC_ALL=C as well :( )
Will try to fix this soon...
Comment 2 Ondrej Vasik 2016-02-15 12:06:49 UTC 
Should be fixed in coreutils-8.25-4.fc24 . Closing RAWHIDE, feel free to reopen if some issues still persist.

Seems to work, thanks!
