Greetings,
Thanks for checking. That seems to fit that every other distro is fine.
But I've now check a dozen different systems on SL 7.9 and all show it.
Thanks!

perhaps your 80387 chip is faulty. (happened to us once
on an R3000/R3010 SGI workstation)

Greetings,
Curious if anyone else can replicate this. I initially saw this in a
certain upstream vendor 7.9, but I'm having issues replicating it
and it's only in a certain environment (virtual and I've done
strange and awful things to that as I've been trying to understand
an unrelated project). However, I was trying to figure out if it was
other places as well. Sure enough, I can replicate it on every
single one of my SL 7.9 instances that I've tested.
The short, numfmt should not return 'nan' when passed a zero.
$ echo 0 | numfmt
nan
$ rpm -q coreutils
coreutils-8.22-24.el7_9.2.x86_64
If I try on any other distro (Ubuntu/Debian/CentOS 8), it returns 0
as it should.
$ echo 0 | numfmt
0
$ rpm -q coreutils
coreutils-8.30-8.el8.x86_64
I may not be able to replicate it as reliably as I would prefer on
upstream vendor, but every single SL 7.9 system I've tried has had
coreutils-8.22-24.el7_9.2.x86_64 and incorrectly returns 'nan'.
I'm hoping the devs can confirm and/or offer suggestions.
Thanks!
