Ouch. This makes it look like coreutils should not install arch by default. What do you think of a new configure-time option that would list extra programs like arch that you'd like to install? I would probably add "su" to the list, since most installers don't want the version from coreutils.
On Linux/GNU, there are a couple more candidates for an exclude-list: groups is in the shadow package too id is in the shadow package too su is in the shadow package too kill is in the procps package too uptime is in the procps package too hostname is in the net-tools package too There may well be more for which a system administrator might prefer another package. bjd _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
