Fixed and built as coreutils-6.10-4.fc9 in fedora RAWHIDE branch. Well, echo change was not accepted by upstream (as not justified and potentially breaking scripts), so I will remove that functionality from Fedora in next coreutils builds. In fact you could use POSIXLY_CORRECT env.variable or printf command for such things. POSIX says do not use any options in echo. So that one part is NOTABUG (full thread on upstream mailing list is http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2008-03/msg00111.html)... Thanks for reverting this. This did break scripts, at least for me. The only reason I knew this was changed was from the RPM changelog. I didn't see any mention of you reverting this in the changelog, but my scripts work now. |
