I do not think anyone is claiming that lsb is prohibited from requiring uname to support -d. In fact, I would guess that other vendors would avoid adding -d to their unames, unless it were to be for the analagous purpose. Were multiple vendors to actually do that, *then* is the time to suggest a POSIX standard..... _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
