Hi-
I'm trying to use gnu du, which is installed as gdu on our systems, to avoid hiding the system du command. The system version deals happily with large files (> 4GB) but the gnu version does something strange. For example, on small files: hpux> ls -l fileutils-4.1.5.tar.gz -rw-r--r-- 1 eldridge users 2310374 Jan 31 13:11 fileutils-4.1.5.tar.gz hpux> gdu -k fileutils-4.1.5.tar.gz 2266 fileutils-4.1.5.tar.gz hpux> du -k fileutils-4.1.5.tar.gz 2266 fileutils-4.1.5.tar.gz But on big files: hpux> ls -l -rw-r--r-- 1 eldridge users 5881824079 Jan 31 13:26 bigfile.bin hpux> du -k bigfile.bin 5743969 bigfile.bin hpux> gdu -k bigfile.bin 717997 bigfile.bin So du is reporting the correct file size, and gdu is reporting the wrong file size. This is for: hpux> gdu --version du (fileutils) 4.1 Written by Torbjorn Granlund, David MacKenzie, Larry McVoy, and Paul Eggert. Copyright (C) 2001 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
