|
<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
|
|
DEFAULT_POSIX2_VERSION environment variable to "199209" in the above
|
|
command. If you don't want coreutils to be backwards compatible
|
|
with the traditional syntax, then simply omit setting the DEFAULT_POSIX2_VERSION
|
|
environment variable. Realise though, that doing so will mean you'll have
|
|
to deal with the consequences yourself: patch the many packages that still use
|
|
the old syntax. We therefore recommend using the instructions exactly as given
|
|
above.</para>

<userinput>make RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes check</userinput>. The
|
|
<emphasis>RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes</emphasis> parameter tells the test suite to
|
|
run several additional tests that are considered relatively expensive on some
|
|
platforms but generally are not a problem on Linux.)</para>
