Package: coreutils Version: 8.20-3 Severity: normal In 8.20-3 /bin/pwd doesn't use the libc getcwd implementation, falling back to the gnulib one. One of the consequences is that /bin/pwd fails when the parent dir is not readable but this may be a sign of some more severe problems, as I couldn't find why the system getcwd is not used (I'm not familiar with gnulib or the coreutils build system).
Points of interest: - src/pwd.c::main() - lib/xgetcwd.c - lib/getcwd.c::__getcwd() I can only suppose that "#if HAVE_RAW_DECL_GETCWD && HAVE_MINIMALLY_WORKING_GETCWD" is false because HAVE_RAW_DECL_* are not defined, but I don't understand what code should generate these #defines. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.7.0-rc6-wrar-2+ (SMP w/4 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages coreutils depends on: ii dpkg 1.16.9 ii install-info 4.13a.dfsg.1-10 ii libacl1 2.2.51-8 ii libattr1 1:2.4.46-8 ii libc6 2.13-37 ii libselinux1 2.1.9-5 coreutils recommends no packages. coreutils suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
