We plan to release coreutils-9.11 early next week,
so any testing you can do on various different systems
between now and then would be most welcome.
This release comes about 11 weeks after the 9.10 release.

You can download the coreutils snapshot in xz format (6.0 MiB) from:

And verify with gpg or md5sum with:

--------------------------------------
To test, follow this standard procedure:
tar -xf coreutils-ss.tar.xz
cd coreutils-9.10.299-27a7c/
