|
|
|
|
<para>This package has an issue when compiled against versions of
|
|
Glibc later than 2.3.2. Some of the Coreutils utilities (such as
|
|
<command>head</command>, <command>tail</command>, and
|
|
<command>sort</command>) will reject their traditional syntax, a
|
|
syntax that has been in use for approximately 30 years. This old
|
|
syntax is so pervasive that compatibility should be preserved until
|
|
the many places where it is used can be updated. Backwards
|
|
compatibility is achieved by setting the
|
|
<envar>DEFAULT_POSIX2_VERSION</envar> environment variable to
|
|
<quote>199209</quote> in the above command. If you do not want
|
|
Coreutils to be backwards compatible with the traditional syntax, then
|
|
omit setting the <envar>DEFAULT_POSIX2_VERSION</envar>
|
|
environment variable. It is important to remember that doing so will
|
|
have consequences, including the need to patch the many packages that
|
|
still use the old syntax. Therefore, it is recommended that the
|
|
instructions be followed exactly as given above.</para>

|
|
<parameter condition="pdf">RUN_EXPENSIVE_ TESTS=yes</parameter>
|
|
parameter tells the test suite to run several additional tests that are considered
|
|
relatively expensive (in terms of CPU power and memory usage) on some
|
|
platforms, but generally are not a problem on Linux.</para>
