Hello,
The test suite for 8.1 fails on the NixOS GNU/Linux distro:
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/145079/log/raw
It also fails on Darwin and Cygwin:
http://hydra.nixos.org/job/nixpkgs/stdenv/coreutils/all
Thanks,
Ludo’.
Hi Eric,
Thanks for the quick reply. I’m actually more interested in the
GNU/Linux port, but I’ll inform the people who take care of Nixpkgs on
Cygwin.

Actually the intent of this snippet was to mimic Nix’ build process:

Hello,
On GNU, processes can have zero or more UIDs/GIDs. In the case of a
process with zero UIDs, for instance, ‘getuid’ returns -1 and sets
ERRNO [0] (as an extension to POSIX [1].)
Currently ‘id’ would print (unsigned int) -1 as the UID in that case,
whereas it should rather print an error.
Hi Jim,
Thanks for the quick review!

It works for me even if it’s not executable when I run “make check
TESTS=id/gnu-zero-uids”, apparently because it’s run this way:
execve("/bin/sh", ["/bin/sh", "./shell-o

Hello,
We have observed intermittent failures of tests/tail-2/assert.sh
(Coreutils 8.24, libc 2.22), especially showing up on relatively slow
machines (armhf and mips64el.)
The failure is with ‘tail --follow=name’, which, in inotify mode, would
fail to report that file ‘foo’ has been deleted.
