Package: coreutils Version: 5.93-5 Upgrading coreutils yesterday appears to have broken the -t <separator> option in uniq.
There is no mention of this change in /usr/share/doc/coreutils/NEWS.gz so I assume (and hope) that this was a mistake and not a conscious decision. There's a cryptic mention of "--separator" in README.Debian and a corresponding (but misspelled) note for version 5.93-1 in the changelog.Debian.gz though. I'm afraid I don't know exactly which version the previous coreutils package was (this is not my own system; things like this is one of the reasons I don't run unstable on production systems). /* era */ -- If this were a real .signature, it would suck less.
