Hi,
I've been running coreutils-6.7 on Darwin/MacOSX 10.4.8 ever since it went final. The "make check" tests that failed probably can be explained. Haven't seen any real problems, but all I usually do is lots of builds of other open projects and trying to keep up with the updates. ;) But I wonder about this blurb from "man MvMac": [...] As of Mac OS X 10.4, the mv command preserves metadata and resource forks of files on Extended HFS volumes, so it can be used in place of MvMac. The MvMac command will be deprecated in future versions of Mac OS X. [...] Are these changes inside the coreutils code already (has Apple submitted them up-stream and accepted)? If not, what should we do to get ready for possibly Leopard and/or future XCodes ditching them? btw MvMac and CpMac are found in the /Developer/Tools path (XCode 2.4.1 is the latest as I type & send this note; its installer will place man-pages into the regular /usr locations). also btw I can never afford a $pay-for$ ADC account (and never mind those 'dmg's being posted in certain places), so I have no idea what Leopard's state is ... Apple certainly is being tight-lipped about most of it. :( Thanks... -- _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
