Just in case this is really a bug... I'm using version 5.2.1 of coreutils on a fedora core 4.
Consider joining these two files ordered with default options: [EMAIL PROTECTED] BaseConcepts]$ more kk1.sort ice_cream%1:13:00:: life_style%1:07:00:: part-time%3:00:00:: [EMAIL PROTECTED] BaseConcepts]$ more kk2.sort icecream%1:13:00:: 07510835 1 0 ice_cream%1:13:00:: 07510835 1 1 life_style%1:07:00:: 04875322 1 2 part-time%3:00:00:: 01131371 1 21 [EMAIL PROTECTED] BaseConcepts]$ join kk1.sort kk2.sort life_style%1:07:00:: 04875322 1 2 part-time%3:00:00:: 01131371 1 21 [EMAIL PROTECTED] BaseConcepts]$ join -v 1 kk1.sort kk2.sort ice_cream%1:13:00:: Why ice_cream%1:13:00:: is not joined? Is this corrected in version 5.93 of coreutils?
