Seems to work fine in coreutils-5.0-5. Please supply a small test case that causes problems for you, so that I can verify the problem is really fixed. Created attachment 92274 [details]
test case that causes sort -M to fail
The bug is related to line length and locale, if the lines to be sorted are
under 49 charecters or a non-UTF-8 locale is used there is no error.
Thanks. $ cat test.txt | sort -M Feb 5 bbbb qqqqq zzzz aaaaa pppppp ggggg dddddddd Jan 1 aaaa ccccc gggg xxxxx yyyyyy zzzzz ffffffff $ rpm -q coreutils coreutils-5.0-5 $ echo $LANG en_GB.UTF-8 So it looks like this really is fixed. Tim, where can we find coreutils-5.0-5? Cheers Phil =--= Never mind, I was only asking to see if I could get away without having to tinker unhooking the selinux bit. Rebuilt 5.2.0-4 for AS3 - the selinux bit Phil =--= Note that 5.2.0-4 has bugs, since 5.2.0 isn't very old. In particular, sort -M doesn't work. :-) Grab 5.2.0-7, which should appear tomorrow -- that has fewer bugs than 5.2.0-4, but (I'm sure) more than 5.2.0-8 will have when it exists.. |
