126 achieves the same thing as BSD's "xargs -o", but in a more
129 * locate/updatedb.sh: Actually rename the old database to the new
130 one atomically, instead of just claiming the rename is atomic in a
131 comment :) This fixes Savannah bug #22057.

140 * xargs/xargs.c: (main): Standardise on "Warning" instead of
141 "warning" in messages.
143 * xargs/xargs.c: (add_proc): Use x2nrealloc to extend the pids
144 array, rather than doubling the size of the buffer (since the old
145 aproach was vulnerable to overflow).
147 Reap all available child processes before every fork. This fixes
149 * xargs/xargs.c: (proc_max): since this is a non-negative
150 quantity, make it unsigned.
151 (procs_executing): Likewise.
152 (pids_alloc): Likewise (using size_t).

158 Add an extra argument which is the minimum number of children we
159 must reap before returning.
160 (wait_for_proc_all): Pass the new extra argument.
161 (xargs_do_exec): Call wait_for_proc() to reap all available

169 find/tree.c, lib/regextype.c, locate/locate.c, xargs/xargs.c,
170 find.c: Backed out positional paremeter change, as the use of
171 positional parameters was over-complex and unnecessary. We'll
172 re-apply the pluralisation support change soon, but without the
173 positional parameters.

259 Fix Savannah bug #20865 (-prune -delete without an explicit
260 -depth is now an error).
261 * find/parser.c (check_option_combinations): Diagnose the
262 situation where -delete and -prune are both used, because -delete
263 turns on -depth and -depth makes -prune do nothing.
264 * find/tree.c (build_expression_tree): call
265 check_option_combinations().
266 * find/defs.h (struct options): Add new boolean field
268 Also declare check_option_combinations.

274 Support the generation of regexprops-generic.texi.
275 * lib/regextype.h (get_regex_type_context): Used to indicate if a
276 particular type of regular expression is of interest for
277 regexprops.texi (which is findutils-specific) or
278 regexprops-generic.texi (which is not). The "context" is simply
279 a flag set in a word.
280 * lib/regextype.c (get_regex_type_context): Implement this.
281 (regex_map): Assign a context to each regular expression type.
282 * lib/regexprops.c: Use the context information from regextype.c

297 which "context" was of interest when generating the output.
298 * doc/Makefile.am: Add regexprops-generic.texi. Generate this
299 file from regexprops.c.
301 Check gnulib out with native git, rather than git-cvspserver.
302 This fixes Savannah bug #21568, for the second time.
303 * import-gnulib.config (gnulib_version): Switch to using a git
304 commit id and native git, since git-cvspserver silently fails to
305 support "cvs update -D".
306 * import-gnulib.sh (do_checkout): Check gnulib out with git rather
308 (main): Require 'git' to be available.
309 (move_cvsdir): Remove any pre-existing gnulib-cvs directory.

404 * doc/find.texi (Mode Bits): Likewise
405 (Environment Variables): Likewise
408 * xargs/xargs.1: Options should be bold, not italic; filenames
409 should also be italic. OPTIONS should be a section, not a
410 subsection. In the description of --max-lines, "max-args" was
411 corrected to "max-lines". Turn off hyphenation in the SYNOPSIS
412 section. This fixes Savannah bug #21270.

427 * configure.ac: Prepared for release of findutils-4.3.9.
430 * po/POTFILES.in: Use gnulib/lib/getdate.y rather than
431 gnulib/lib/getdate.c, because the former is the source file, and

438 * po/hu.po, po/nl.po: Updated from Translation Project.

448 Document interaction of -depth/-delete/-prune.

453 command lines you plan to eventually add "-delete" to.
454 (Cleaning Up): Add -depth explicitly to an example which uses

583 2007-07-22 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
585 * find/find.1: Corrected a number of typos and fixed up the
586 alphabetical section ordering. This fixes Savannah bug #20552.
588 Version banners now comply with the GNU coding standard.
589 * find/parser.c (parse_version): Use display_findutils_version()
590 instead of printing the information manually. Don't include
591 gnulib-version.h since we no longer directly use that header.
592 * lib/findutils-version.c: Added
593 * lib/findutils-version.h: Added
594 * import-gnulib.config (modules): Added version-etc and

646 2007-07-03 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
648 Fix Savannah bug #20310.
649 * m4/nullsort.m4: If we are cross compiling, assume "sort -z" does
650 not work on the target.
652 Manpage improvements.
653 * find/find.1: More consistent use of quotation marks.
654 * locate/locate.1 (HISTORY): New section.
656 2007-07-02 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
658 * import-gnulib.sh: (run_gnulib_tool): Don't pass --gpl3 to
659 gnulib-tool, since the program does not have that option (that was
660 a local change which proved not to be necessary).

728 Include <fcntl.h> unconditionally.
729 * import-gnulib.config (modules): Also use the fcntl module.

743 * locate/word_io.c (getword): Likewise.
745 2007-06-30 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
747 * find/find.1 (EXAMPLES): Added an example of using find and cpio -p
748 to copy a directory tree, with pruning and omitted files.
750 * find/pred.c (format_date): Use verify_true for constant
751 conditions rather than assert.
752 * xargs/xargs.c (main): Ditto.
754 Enhancements to the code smell detector.
755 * Makefile.am (findutils-check-smells): Automate the calling of
756 build-aux/src-sniff.py.
757 * build-aux/src-sniff.py: Rework to use a list of regex-based
758 sniffers, to allow checking types of file other than C. Allow
759 file-based regex sniffers to give an indication of the line number
760 where they think the problem (or part of the problem) exists.
761 Added code smell detectors for a sample Bourne shell problem and
762 for out-of-date FSF addresses.
764 * find/tree.c (get_pred_cost): Eliminate unused variable.
766 Fix Savannah bug #20263 in a more portable way.
767 * find/tree.c (cost_table_comparison): Avoid casting function
768 pointers to poiter-to-object, since this is not portable (or
769 of course conforming). Instead, use memcmp().
771 2007-06-28 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
773 * import-gnulib.sh (run_gnulib_tool): Speed operation when
774 updating an existing tree.

791 * NEWS: Document the fix.
793 2007-06-27 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
795 Added a maintenance manual.
796 * doc/find-maint.texi: New file.

802 * import-gnulib.config (modules): Allow ./configure
805 2007-06-26 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
807 * build-aux/src-sniff.py: Detect uses of struct stat where the
808 header file was not included.
809 * find/find.c: Fix this, and uses of assert without a following
810 space (the coding standard requires a space, but there are still
811 a number of cases where other functions are called with no
813 * find/fstype.c: Ditto.

824 * locate/word_io.c: Ditto.
825 * xargs/xargs.c: Ditto.
827 * find/tree.c (cost_table_comparison): Avoid < comparison between
828 function pointer types. Instead cast the function pointers to
829 (const void*). Both alternatives are undefined C, but the former
830 actually fails to compile on some systems. This fixes Savannah
832 * NEWS: mention the fix
834 * find/tree.c (calculate_derived_rates): Removed assignment to
835 rate variable following an assert(0) call, which had been added to
836 silence a "used before initialised" warning, and replace it with a
837 call to abort, which (a) correctly halts execution if _NDEBUG is
838 defined and (b) more accurately documents what's happening.
840 * find/parser.c (get_stat_Ytime): Removed redundant call to abort.
842 * find/util.c (debug_stat): For consistency, use assert (0) rather
845 2007-06-26 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
847 * README-alpha: Mention the findutils-patches mailng list and the
848 archives for findutils-patches and bug-findutils.

852 2007-06-25 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
854 * po/sv.po: Updated Swedish translation.
856 2007-06-24 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

859 find/.gitignore, find/testsuite/.gitignore, .gitignore,
860 lib/.gitignore, locate/.gitignore, locate/testsuite/.gitignore,
861 m4/.gitignore, po/.gitignore, xargs/.gitignore,

867 2007-06-23 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
869 * doc/find.texi (Introduction): Recommend that people check they
870 are using the latest version before reporting a bug.
872 2007-06-22 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
874 Better documentation for the fractional part of seconds fields for
875 -printf and similar actions.
876 * doc/find.texi (Time Components): Point out that the seconds
877 field of the timestamp is often printed out with a fractional part
878 of unspecified length and precision. The '%Tc' field has no
880 (Combined Time Formats): Point out the same thing for '%T@'.
881 * find/find.1 (%A): Point out the same thing.
882 * NEWS: Mention these changes.
884 Fix various lint-type complaints taken from the rules in the
885 coreutils Makefile.maint file (see build-aux/src-sniff.py).
886 * xargs/xargs.c: Removed unnecessary parentheses in "#if defined"
888 (main): Don't cast the return value of xmalloc.
889 (add_proc): Don't cast the return value of xmalloc.
890 * lib/regextype.c: Don't include quotearg.h, we don't need it.
891 * lib/dircallback.c, lib/nextelem.c, lib/prontquoted.c,
892 lib/qmark.c, lib/strspn.c, lib/waitpid.c: Assume config.h is available.
893 * lib/extendbuf.c: Ditto

895 "#if defined" checks.
896 (get_link_name): Don't cast the result of xmalloc.
897 * lib/bigram.c: Removed unnecessary parentheses in "#if defined"
899 * lib/savedirinfo.c: Assume config.h is available. Also removed
900 unnecessary parentheses in "#if defined" checks.
901 * lib/buildcmd.c (bc_do_insert): Don'tcast the result of xmalloc().
902 * find/tree.c (build_expression_tree): Don't cast the argument to free().
903 * find/ftsfind.c (set_close_on_exec): Removed unnecessary
904 parentheses in "#if defined" checks. Also changed "filesystem" ->

907 "#if defined" checks.
908 * find/parser.c (estimate_fstype_success_rate): ditto.
909 (insert_regex): Do not cast the result of xmaloc(). Removed unnecessary
910 parentheses in "#if defined" checks. Also changed "filesystem" ->

914 * find/fstype.c: "filesystem" -> "file system" (in comments and
916 * locate/frcode.c: Removed unnecessary parentheses in "#if
918 * locate/locate.c (search_one_database): Don't cast the return
920 (dolocate): Mark error message for translation.
922 2007-06-21 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
924 * locate/.cvsignore: Ignore dblocation.texi.
925 * build-aux/.cvsignore: Ignore Makefile.
926 * locate/locate.c (set_max_db_age): Fix typo in error message.
928 2007-06-19 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
930 Fix compilation on cygwin, Savannah bug #20210.
931 * import-gnulib.config (gnulib_version): Import strcasestr and
932 updated canonicalize-lgpl-tests.
933 * lib/dircallback.c (includes): Track gnulib changes.
935 2007-06-14 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
937 * find/parser.c (parse_time): Use the variable comp, which holds
938 the planned comparison type, rather than the structure tval, which
939 has not been initialised yet and contains a random value. This
940 fixes Savannah bug #20139.
941 * NEWS: Mention the bugfix.
943 2007-06-13 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
945 * po/pl.po: Updated Polish translation.
947 2007-06-12 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
951 * find/find.1 (HISTORY): Document when the find tests -readable,
952 -writable, -executable and the option -regextype were introduced.
954 2007-06-12 Nix <nix@esperi.org.uk> (trivial change)
956 * locate/locate.c (drop_privs): Use groups[0] rather than
957 groups[1], since groups[] is a one-element array. This is a
958 buffer overrun affecting root only. In theory it could affect
959 setuid installations, but I (James Youngman) cannot find an explot
960 mechanism for it. This fixes Savannah bug#20157.
961 * NEWS: Mention this fix.
963 2007-06-12 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
965 Make the test suite work when run as root.
966 * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp (fs_superuser): Abstract out the
967 check which discovers if we have superuser privileges on the
968 filesystem (taken from access.exp).
969 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/access.exp: Call fs_superuser.
970 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/fprint-unwritable.exp: Use fs_superuser.
972 * po/vi.po, ga.po, nl.po: Updated translations
973 * po/findutils.pot: Updated template file
975 2007-06-09 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
979 Check that we can correctly read old-format databases which are
980 big-endian or little endian.
981 * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp (locate_from_db): New function;
982 supports testing locate against a provided database.
983 * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/bigendian.exp: New test; make sure
984 we can read an old-format big-endian database.
985 * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/bigendian.xo: Expected output from
987 * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/littleendian.exp: New test; make sure
988 we can read an old-format little-endian database.
989 * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/locateddb.old.powerpc.xi: Old format
990 big endian database file, for supporting bigendian.exp.
991 * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/littleendian.xo: Expected output from
992 littleendian.exp test.
993 * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/locateddb.old.x86.xi: Old format
994 little endian database file, for supporting littleendian.exp.
995 * locate/testsuite/Makefile.am: Distribute littleendian.exp,
996 bigendian.exp and related .xi and .xo files.
999 * doc/find.texi (Size Directives): Compare %b with %s/512, not
1000 %s/1024. This fixes (again) Savannah bug #19596.
1001 * NEWS: mention the fix.
1003 Avoid using the non-portable function putw().
1004 * locate/locatedb.h: Declare putword().
1005 * locate/frcode.c: Include <stdbool.h> as locatedb.h now requires
1007 * locate/code.c (main): Use putword() rather than putw(), because
1008 the latter was removed from SUSv3. This fixes Savannah bug #19980.
1009 Also include <stdbool.h> as locatedb.h now requires this.
1010 * locate/word_io.c (putword): Define the new function putword.
1012 Ensure that <config.h> is included before any system header
1013 * find/defs.h: Do not include <config.h> from "defs.h". Instead
1014 just complain if it was not already included, since it needs to
1015 be included first of all, even before system headers (in case
1016 gnulib had replaced a system header). Check
1017 ALREADY_INCLUDED_CONFIG_H to determine this.
1018 * configure.in: Always define ALREADY_INCLUDED_CONFIG_H in
1020 * find/find.c: Include config.h before defs.h.
1021 * find/finddata.c: ditto.
1022 * find/fstfind.c: ditto.
1023 * find/parser.c: ditto.
1024 * find/pred.c: ditto.
1025 * find/util.c: ditto
1026 * find/tree.c: ditto (fixing Savannah bug #20128).
1028 * m4/noreturn.m4 (jy_AC_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN): Use AC_LANG_PROGRAM
1029 inside AC_COMPILE_IFELSE.
1031 * doc/find.texi (Security Considerations for locate): Discuss in
1032 detail the buffer overrun when reading old-format locate
1033 databases. This is CVE reference CVE-2007-2452.
1035 2007-06-05 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1037 Guess the byte-order of old-format locate databases.
1038 * locate/word_io.c (getword): Make the endian_state_flag parameter
1039 an enum rather than an int. If we are in the initial ("don't
1040 know") byte-order guessing state and the swapped value is out of
1041 range, use this as evidence that the byte order is native.
1042 * locate/locatedb.h: Declare getword accordingly.
1043 * locate/locate.c (struct process_data): Added endian_state
1044 member, which remembers for us what the big/little endian order
1045 guessing state is when we read an old-format database.
1046 (visit_old_format): Use the procdata.endian_state rather than a
1047 local variable, so that the information can persist across calls.
1048 (i_am_little_endian): Locate figures out if we needed to byteswap
1049 the words in an old-format database, but that is an implementation
1050 detail. Therefore we figure out our own byte order so that we can
1051 produce a more relevant message for --statistics. The
1052 i_am_little_endian() returns nonzero if the current host has
1053 little-endian byte order.
1054 (search_one_database): Report the byte-order of old-format
1057 2007-06-04 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1059 * locate/testsuite/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST_XO, EXTRA_DIST_EXP):
1060 Added old_prefix.exp and old_prefix.xo, a new test case for long
1061 shared rpefixes with the old database format.
1063 * locate/locate.c (visit_old_format): Use getword() from word_io.c
1064 instead of getw(), because getw() is not in POSIX.
1065 * locate/word_io.c: New file, providing replacement for getw().
1066 * locate/locatedb.h: Declare getword()
1067 * locate/Makefile.am (locate_SOURCES): Added word_io.c
1069 * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp (locate_start): Make the
1070 failure messages slightly more explicit; indicate what went wrong
1073 2007-06-03 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1075 * locate/locate.c (visit_old_format, extend, toolong): Extend the
1076 buffer used to build the current pathname when reading an
1077 old-format database. The new function extend is called to do
1078 this. The new function toolong is called to report a fatal error
1079 when the buffer size would otherwise exceed SIZE_MAX. This fixes
1080 Savannah bug #20014, which is a security-related problem with the
1081 CVE identifier CVE-2007-2452.
1083 * configure.in: Determine if the setgroups function is available,
1084 and set HAVE_SETGROUPS if so.
1085 * locate/locate.c (drop_privs): Call setgroups() only if
1086 HAVE_SETGROUPS indicates that it is available. This fixes
1087 Savannah bug #19981.
1089 * po/vi.po: Updated Vietnamese translation
1091 2007-05-31 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1093 * find/parser.c (parse_time): Once we have determined the
1094 comparison type, restore the original time argument since
1095 get_relative_timestamp() also wants to see it. This fixes
1096 Savannah bug #20005.
1098 * po/findutils.pot, ga.po, pt.po, tr.po, pl.po: updated from the TP
1101 2007-05-31 Jakub Bogusz <qboosh@pld-linux.org> (trivial change)
1103 * find/parser.c (parse_group): Correct typo in error message.
1104 (check_path_safety): same
1106 2007-05-27 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1108 * import-gnulib.config (modules): Import sys_stat.
1109 (gnulib_version): Update to 2007-05-26. This fixes a compilation
1110 error in stdlib.h with the DEC C compiler. This fixes Savannah
1113 * find/parser.c (safe_atoi): New function, like atoi, but which
1114 calls error(1, ...) when the argument is invalid or out of range.
1115 (parse_group): Use safe_atoi.
1116 (insert_depthspec): Use safe_atoi
1117 (parse_user): Use safe_atoi
1119 * configure.in: Check for fabs in libm (fixing a compilation error
1122 * import-gnulib.config (modules): Import the wcwidth module to
1123 provide it on those systems (such as BeOS) which lack it.
1125 * find/pred.c (file_sparseness): If st_blocks is not present in
1126 struct stat, the file has a sparseness of 1.0.
1128 * doc/find.texi (Size Directives): Document the %S format
1129 directive for -printf.
1131 * find/pred.c (mode_to_filetype): Don't use S_IFSOCK on systems
1132 which lack that macro. POSIX systems are allowed to lack
1133 sockets (it's an XSI extension).
1134 (file_sparseness): If struct stat lacks st_blocks, assume all
1135 files have a spearseness of 1.0.
1137 * import-gnulib.config (modules): Import fchdir inorder to fix an
1138 undefined-symbol error for fchdir on BeOS.
1140 2007-05-26 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1142 Code refactoring in locate.
1143 * locate/locate.c (visit): New function, into which we factor out
1144 the traversal of the inspector list.
1145 (process_simple): Use visit().
1146 (process_or): Use visit().
1147 (process_and): Use visit().
1149 Speed improvements in locate for unibyte locales.
1150 * locate/locate.c (visit_substring_match_nocasefold_wide): Renamed
1151 from visit_substring_match_nocasefold.
1152 (visit_substring_match_casefold_wide): Renamed from
1153 visit_substring_match_casefold.
1154 (visit_substring_match_casefold_narrow): Special case of
1155 visit_substring_match_casefold_wide which we use for unibyte
1156 locales; we use strcasestr() rather than mbscasestr().
1157 (visit_substring_match_nocasefold_narrow): Ditto, using strstr()
1158 instead of mbsstr().
1160 * find/parser.c (parse_gid): Return an explicit boolean constant
1161 rather than automatically converting from a pointer, because the
1162 gnulib substitute for bool (or _Bool) in c89 environments lacking
1163 bool does not support that conversion. One affected system is Sun
1164 WorkShop Compilers 5.0 98/12/15 C 5.0 on Solaris 7. This is
1165 Savannah bug #19970, reported by Nelson Beebe.
1166 (parse_inum): Ditto.
1167 (parse_links): Ditto.
1169 (check_path_safety): declarations need to go before code, not
1170 interspersed. Move declaration of char* s.
1172 * xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/rc-125.exp: Explain Savannah bug
1173 #19969. This bug is not yet fixed.
1175 * find/defs.h: #include <stdint_.h>, for uintmax_t. This should
1176 fix a compilation error on DEC C V5.9-005 on Digital UNIX V4.0F
1177 (Rev. 1229). This is Savannah bug #19965, reported by Nelson
1180 * find/defs.h: Don't include <errno.h>, since it is not needed in
1181 the header file itself. The "extern int errno;" declaration is
1183 * find/parser.c: Include <errno.h>
1185 * find/util.c: Ditto
1187 2007-05-24 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1189 * find/util.c (check_nofollow): If O_NOFOLLOW is defined but 0,
1190 act as if it is undefined. This should prevent a runtime
1191 assertion failure on IRIX 6.5. This fixes Savannah bug #19948,
1192 reported by Nelson Beebe.
1194 * m4/noreturn.m4: New file, testing for support of __attribute__
1195 ((__noreturn__)). Defines jy_AC_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN and sets
1196 HAVE_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN.
1197 * configure.in: Call jy_AC_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN.
1198 * find/defs.h (ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN): Define to nothing if
1199 HAVE_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN is not set in config.h. This should fix a
1200 compilation error with non-GCC compilers. This is Savannah bug
1201 #19967, reported by Nelson Beebe.
1203 * configure.in (FINDLIBS): Update FINDLIBS to link against -lm for
1204 modf. This fixed a link error on HP-UX. This fixes Savannah
1205 bug #19966, reported by Nelson Beebe.
1206 * find/Makefile.am (LDADD): Use @FINDLIBS@
1208 2007-05-21 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1212 * build-aux/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Added man-lint.sh.
1214 * locate/locate.c (drop_privs): pass the correct list of groups to
1215 setgroups(). Previously, if root invoked locate, their group ID
1216 would have been set to a random value. The same bug also caused
1217 an array overrun past the end of the local array groups[]. The
1218 variable which gets overwritten by the buffer overrun on x86 is
1219 'what'. The value of that variable is always changed before it is
1220 used, and so I believe that this buffer overrun will not cause a
1221 crash. The only effect of the bug therefore would be for locate
1222 to change group to a random group ID since groups[0] is
1223 uninitialised. On my test system this random group ID is 0
1224 anyway. The effect does not depend on any externally-controllable
1225 information, so it is unlikely this is exploitable. This bug is
1226 detailed as bug# 19923.
1228 2007-05-19 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1230 * find/find.1: Spurious .R directives (.R is not a directive)
1231 should be .B. This fixes Savannah bug #19871.
1232 * build-aux/man-lint.sh: New file; verifies that the specified
1233 manual pages do not provoke error messages from troff. This is
1234 used to detect further occurrences of Savannah bug #19871.
1235 * find/Makefile.am (dist-hook): Run findutils-check-manpages,
1236 which invokes man-lint.sh.
1237 * locate/Makefile.am (dist-hook): ditto
1238 * xargs/Makefile.am (dist-hook): ditto
1240 * .cvsignore: Ignore ylwrap, which automake-1.10 wants us to have
1241 a copy of for some reason
1243 * import-gnulib.sh (main): New option -a which just runs the
1244 autotools without reimporting gnulib.
1246 * Makefile.am (jy-regex-fix): The previous explanatory comment
1247 refers to the jy-regex-fix target, not to dist-hook, so it has
1250 2007-05-08 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1252 * find/defs.h (struct predicate.args): str is now const.
1254 * find/parser.c (get_comp_type): get_comp_type now takes a const
1257 (get_relative_timestamp): ditto. Also use collect_arg().
1258 (collect_arg_stat_info): New function; collects a command-line
1259 argument and returns its xstat information, in one go.
1260 error(1,...) is called if the stat fails.
1261 (parse_anewer): Use collect_arg().
1262 (parse_cnewer): ditto
1263 (parse_fprint): ditto
1264 (parse_fstype): ditto
1265 (parse_group): ditto
1266 (parse_ilname): ditto
1267 (parse_iname): ditto
1268 (parse_iwholename): ditto
1269 (parse_lname): ditto
1270 (insert_depthspec): ditto
1272 (parse_newer): ditto
1273 (parse_wholename): ditto
1275 (parse_regextype): ditto
1276 (insert_regex): ditto
1277 (parse_samefile): ditto
1280 (insert_type): ditto
1282 (parse_size): When the size argument is invalid but consists only
1283 of a valid suffix char, avoid issuing an error message about a
1284 blank argument. Append the suffix letter again.
1285 (parse_xdev, parse_ignore_race, parse_noignore_race, parse_warn,
1286 parse_xtype): Remove casts to void for some function parameters
1287 that were, in fact, used.
1289 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/fprint-unwritable.exp: new test
1290 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/fprint0_stdout.exp: new test
1291 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/fprint0_stdout.xo: new test

1309 * find/testsuite/find.posix/user-empty.exp: new test
1310 * find/testsuite/find.posix/user-missing.exp: new test
1312 2007-05-06 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1314 * find/tree.c: (costlookup): Added pred_fls to the optimiser's
1315 predicate cost lookup table.
1317 * lib/printquoted.c (print_quoted): Change return value from void
1318 to int, to allow the caller to detect failures.
1319 * lib/printquoted.h (print_quoted): Change declaration
1322 * find/defs.h (struct format_val): Incldue a 'filename' member so
1323 that we can provide more useful error messages (e.g. when we fail
1324 to flush or close an output file).
1325 (nonfatal_file_error): declare new function.
1327 * find/util.c (traverse_tree): Utility function which calls a
1328 callback on every node of the parse tree.
1329 (flush_and_close_output_files): Flush all output streams. Close
1330 all output files. Report any errors.
1331 (cleanup): Use traverse_tree() to invoke
1332 complete_pending_execdirs().
1333 (report_file_err): refactored error reporting function, extracted
1334 from fatal_file_error.
1335 (nonfatal_file_error): New function.
1337 * find/pred.c (checked_fprintf): New function, which performa an
1338 fprinf(), and checkes the result. If the operation resulted in an
1339 error, a nonfatal error message is issued.
1340 (checked_print_quoted): Ditto, for print_quoted rather than
1342 (checked_fwrite): Ditto for fwrite instead of fprintf.
1343 (checked_fflush): Ditto for fflush
1344 (do_fprintf): Use the checked_*() functions rather than their
1345 direct counterparts, to ensure that I/O errors are detected. This
1346 fixes Savannah bug #19416.
1347 (pred_fls): Use args.printf_vec instead of args.stream, which has
1349 (pred_ls): just call pred_fls.
1350 (pred_fprint0): use args.printf_vec, instead of the now removed
1352 (pred_print0): just call pred_fprint0
1354 * find/parser.c: (insert_fprintf): Make the caller collect the
1355 format argument from the argument list.
1356 (open_output_file): Enhance to set up defaults in
1357 our_pred->args.printf_vec as well as opening the output file.
1358 Also record the filename for possible later use in an error
1360 (collect_arg): Convenience function for collecting an argument
1361 from the argument list.
1362 (insert_fls): Refactored the body of parse_fls out so that
1363 parse_ls can use it.
1364 (parse_fls): call insert_fls.
1366 (parse_fprint): Instead of setting up our_pred->args.printf_vec
1367 manually, call open_output_file() to do it.
1368 (parse_print): Same, but by calling open_stdout().
1369 (insert_fprint): Make the caller collect the filename argument,
1370 and delegate the setup of our_pred->args.printf_vec to either
1371 open_output_file() (for parse_fprint and parse_fprint0) or
1372 open_stdout (parse_print0).
1373 (parse_fprint0): Use collect_arg().
1374 (parse_print0): Use insert_fprint(), just like parse_fprint0.
1375 (parse_printf): Use collect_arg().
1376 (parse_fprintf): Use collect_arg().
1378 2007-05-05 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1382 * find/parser.c (parse_samefile): Hold a file descriptor open on
1383 the reference file in order to prevent pred_samefile getting
1384 fooled by inode reuse. Pay attention to race conditions on
1385 systems lacking O_NOFOLLOW when the -P option is in force. This
1386 fixes Savannah bug #19806.
1388 * find/defs.h (struct samefile_file_id): New struct, like dir_id
1389 but including a file descriptor on the reference file.
1391 * find/pred.c (pred_type): -type should return false if the file
1392 has mode 00000, as opposed to having an assertion failure. This
1393 fixes Savannah bug #16378.
1395 * find/ftsfind.c (consider_visiting): Issue a warning message if
1396 none of the mode bits are set for a file (i.e. st_mode==00000).
1397 * find/util.c (get_statinfo): ditto
1398 * find/util.c (hook_fstatat): Introduced debug code (normally
1399 disabled) for testing Savannah bug #16378.
1401 2007-05-01 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1403 * find/find.c (wd_sanity_check): corrected the type of %ld fprintf
1404 arguments in error messages.
1405 * find/fstype.c: include "error.h" for the declaratio of error().
1406 * find/ftsfind.c: include "error.h" for the declaratio of
1407 error(). Include dircallback.h for the correct declararion of
1409 * find/parser.c: include getdate.h (for declaration of getdate)
1410 and error.h (for the declaration of error).
1411 (find_parser): Removed unused variable p.
1412 * find/pred.c (pred_timewindow): Removed unused variable delta.
1413 (do_fprintf): Removed unused variable cc.
1414 * find/tree.c: Include error.h (for the declaration of error()).
1415 (build_expression_tree): removed sourious extra arguments in call
1417 * find/util.c: include error.h.
1418 * lib/buildcmd.h (get_line_max): Comment out unused function.
1419 * lib/listfile.c: Include dircallback.h.
1420 * locate/code.c: Include errno.h, erorr.h, progname.h and
1422 (inerr): New function for reporting read errors.
1423 (outerr): New function for reporting output errors.
1424 (main): Call inerror when fgets fails. Call outerr when fwrite
1425 or putc or putw fails.
1426 * locate/frcode.c (put_short): Return boolean value indicating
1428 (outerr): New function for reporting write errors.
1429 (main): Call outerr if call to putc() or puts() or put_short()
1431 * locate/locate.c (search_one_database): diagnose corruption if a
1432 traditional-style database is too short to include a complete
1435 2007-04-30 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1437 * find/defs.h: Change all predicate functions to take a const
1438 char* argument as the pathname, not a char*. Modify the parser
1439 table definition accordingly.
1440 * find/parser.c: Ditto
1441 * find/pred.c: Ditto
1442 * find/pred.c (do_fprintf): copy the pathname string for the %H
1443 and %h cases, since we can no longer modify the string in place.
1444 * lib/listfile.c (print_name, list_file,
1445 print_name_without_quoting, print_name_with_quoting): Use const
1446 char * param for pathname.
1447 * lib/listfile.h (list_file): Use const char * param for
1450 2007-04-29 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1452 * find/defs.h: Declare fatal_file_error(), a function for
1453 reporting immediately-fatal file errors, which appropriately
1454 quotes the file name. The function does not return. Also define
1455 ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN. Record the currently-required quoting style
1458 * find/find.c, find/ftsfind.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c,
1459 find/util.c: Call fatal_file_error() for fatal file errors. Use
1460 quotearg_n_style() to quote filenames which are used in error
1461 message that aren't fatal. Use options.err_quoting_style as the
1462 quoting style. This fixes Savannah bug #18203.
1463 * locate/locate.c: ditto
1464 * xargs/xargs.c: ditto
1466 * lib/listfile.c: To use alloca, just #include <alloca.h>. Gnulib
1467 handles the rest. Also these days, <stdlib.h> and <string.h> can
1468 just be included unconditionally.
1469 * lib/qmark.c: Fixed comment on first line describing the module.
1471 2007-04-29 Michael Haubenwallner <michael.haubenwallner@salomon.at> (Trivial Change)
1473 * find/defs.h (pred_open) Rename to pred_openparen to avoid
1474 problems with the macrtos which build the parser tabnles on
1475 platforms where 'open' is in fact a macro whcih expands to
1476 open64. The problem was that token pasting put pred_open64 into
1477 the parser table, but the function was still defined as
1478 parse_open. This fixes Savannah bug #19371.
1480 * find/parser.c (parse_open, parse_close): ditto. Also change
1481 repferences to pred_open and pred_close similarly.
1482 * find/parser.c (parse_openparen, parse_closeparen): ditto
1484 2007-04-28 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1486 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/deletedir.exp,
1487 find/testsuite/find.gnu/deletedir.xo: New test.
1488 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/deletefile.exp,
1489 find/testsuite/find.gnu/deletefile.xo: New test.
1490 * find/testsuite/Makefile.am: Distribute the new tests
1491 deletefile.exp and deletedir,exp, with their expected-output (.xo)
1493 * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp (find_start): Add a new "setup"
1494 parameter called just before each time find is invoked. This
1495 allows last-minute tasks to be performed. This feature is
1496 essential for find commands that modify the filesystem, since
1497 otherwise we cannot use our strategy of invoking both binaries at
1498 each optimisation level.
1500 * find/util.c (optionh_stat, optionp_stat, optionl_stat): Assert
1501 that state.cwd_dir_fd is valid.
1503 * find/parser.c (parse_delete): Set need_stat to false, since we
1504 don't need the stat information in pred_delete.
1505 * find/pred.c (pred_delete): If unlinkat() with a zero flags
1506 parameter fails with errno==EISDIR, just try again with
1507 flags=AT_REMOVEDIR. That way we normally avoid the cost of a
1508 stat. If we happen to have the stat information to hand anyway,
1509 we make sure we get it right the first time.
1511 * lib/buildcmd.c (bc_init_controlinfo): Eliminate confusing extra
1512 variable arg_max. Add return value
1513 BC_INIT_CANNOT_ACCOMODATE_HEADROOM for the case where the
1514 environment itself is not too large, but the required headroom
1515 cannot also be accomodated. The caller now passes in the amount
1516 of headroom required.
1517 (bc_use_sensible_arg_max): Use the environment size consistently;
1518 this is accounted for already in posix_arg_size_max, so there is
1519 no need to re-measure the size of the environment.
1520 * lib/buildcmd.h: Define BC_INIT_CANNOT_ACCOMODATE_HEADROOM and
1521 add the headroom parameter to the prototype of bc_init_controlinfo().
1522 * xargs/xargs.c (main): Define XARGS_POSIX_HEADROOM as 2048 and
1523 use that symbolic value. Pass XARGS_POSIX_HEADROOM to
1524 bc_init_controlinfo(). Handle the case where
1525 BC_INIT_CANNOT_ACCOMODATE_HEADROOM is returned by
1526 bc_init_controlinfo().
1527 * find/parser.c (new_insert_exec_ok): Pass the required headroom to
1528 bc_init_controlinfo() and handle the error return
1529 BC_INIT_CANNOT_ACCOMODATE_HEADROOM.
1531 * xargs/xargs.1: Correct the description of the default value and
1532 maximum value for the -s option of xargs.
1534 * xargs/xargs.c (main): Modify the assertions not to assume that
1535 bc_ctl.arg_max is 2KiB less than ARG_MAX, since sysconfig() may
1536 have returned a value for _SC_ARG_MAX which is greater. For
1537 example, AIX 5.3 can do this. This should fix Savannah bug
1540 2007-04-25 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1542 * find/tree.c (predlist_dump, predlist_merge_nosort): These
1543 functions were unused and commented out. Removed.
1544 (mark_stat) No longer used. Removed.
1545 (mark_type) No longer used. Removed.
1547 * find/parser.c (new_insert_exec_ok): When checking for {} in the
1548 arguments to -exec..., use mbsstr() rather than strstr() in order
1549 to cope bettwe with multibyte locales.
1551 * lib/buildcmd.c: Don't define mbsstr() locally. Instead, call
1554 2007-04-24 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1556 * lib/buildcmd.c: Added some comments outlining how we might
1557 change the implementation to support figuring out the real ARG_MAX
1560 2007-04-23 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1562 * find/defs.h (struct predicate_performance_info): New data
1563 structure for holding perofmance statistics.
1564 (struct predicate: include predicate_performance_info
1565 (apply_predicate): change from macro to function
1566 (pred_is): new macro, for predicate identity testing
1567 (enum DebugOption): Added DebugSuccessRates
1568 * find/find.1: Document option "-D rates" which turns on
1570 * doc/find.texi: ditto
1571 * find.c (main): Call show_success_rates() before exiting.
1572 (apply_predicate): remove the macro defintion, declare equivalent
1574 * find/ftsfind.c (main): Call show_success_rates() before
1575 exiting. Use apply_predicate().
1576 (show_outstanding_execdirs): use pred_is().
1580 2007-04-22 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
1582 * xargs/xargs.c (main): Don't assume LINE_MAX exists (i.e. is
1585 * locate/updatedb.sh (PRUNEPATHS): Exclude /proc by default.
1587 2007-04-22 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1589 * doc/Makefile.am: When cross-compiling, 'make clean' should not
1590 delete doc/regexprops.texi, becaue we can't regenerate it. Fixes
1591 Savannah bug #19658.
1593 * locate/Makefile.am (BUILT_SOURCES): Automatically generate
1594 dblocation.texi, which records the default database location.
1595 * doc/find.texi: Collect the default database location from
1596 ../locate/dblocation.texi, and use LOCATE_DB in various places.
1597 Document the fact that updatedb can generate slocate-compatible
1598 databases. Document the --dbformat option of updatedb.
1599 * locate/frcode.c (main): Implemented the -S option which allows the
1600 generation of an slocate secure database.
1601 * locate/updatedb.sh: New option --dbformat which selects which
1602 database format to use.
1603 * locate/updatedb.1 (--dbformat): Document the new option.
1606 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/access.exp: fixed a typo which prevented
1607 the test correctly being skipped when run as root. This re-fixes
1608 Savannah bug# 18414, I hope.
1610 2007-04-21 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1614 * find/locate/locatedb.5: Clarifications to the description of the
1615 LOCATE02 format. Organised the material under a number of
1616 headings. Documented the slocate database format.
1618 2007-04-21 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1620 * find/testuite/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST_EXP): added
1621 find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-19617.exp
1623 2007-04-20 Maxim V. Dziumanenko <dziumanenko@gmail.com>
1625 * po/uk.po: New Ukranian translation.
1626 * configure.in: Added "uk" for Ukranian.
1628 2007-04-19 Peter Breitenlohner <peb@mppmu.mpg.de> (Trivial change)
1630 * locate/bigram.c (main): Set the initial pathname to the empty
1631 string, to avoid decompression problems if the initial pathname
1632 begins with a space. This fixes Savannah bug #19484.
1633 * locate/code.c (main): ditto
1635 2007-04-19 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1637 * locate/updatedb.1 (--help): Option name should be bold, not
1640 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-hier.exp: Avoid running
1641 -execdir based tests if "." is on $PATH. Fixes Savannah bug
1643 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-in-unreadable.exp: ditto
1645 * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp (touch): New procedure touch,
1646 replacing "exec touch" for greater efficiency.
1647 * find/testsuite/find.posix/depth1.exp: Change "exec touch" to
1649 * find/testsuite/find.posix/files-not-expressions1.exp: ditto
1650 * find/testsuite/find.posix/files-not-expressions2.exp: ditto
1651 * find/testsuite/find.posix/files-not-expressions3.exp: ditto
1652 * find/testsuite/find.posix/links.exp: ditto
1653 * find/testsuite/find.posix/perm-vanilla.exp: ditto
1654 * find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-15235.exp: ditto
1655 * /find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-19613.exp: ditto
1657 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/access.exp: Fix savannah bug #18414 by
1658 skipping the test if the user can read any file (e.g. is root or
1659 is an Admin user under Cygwin).
1661 2007-04-17 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1663 * import-gnulib.config (gnulib_version): Use the 2007-04-17
1664 version of gnulib to fix a compilation error on Cygwin. This
1665 fixes Savannah bug #19619.
1667 * find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-19605.exp: New test, for
1668 Savannah bug #19605.
1669 * find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-19617.exp: New test, for
1670 Savannah bug #19617.
1671 * find/ftsfind.c (consider_visiting): if fts_read() returns
1672 enf->fts_info==FTS_NS, check for and diagnose a symbolic link
1673 loop. This fixes Savannah bugs #19605 and #19617.
1675 * find/find.c (process_path): collect the stat information for
1676 directories even if we already have the mode information, because
1677 we need to use the members st_nlink and st_rdev in for the leaf
1678 optimisation and loop detection, respectively. This fixes
1679 Savannah bug #19616.
1681 * find/ftsfind.c (is_fts_enabled): Return a copy of ftsoptions,
1682 not a copy of the (uninitialised) input argument. This fixes
1683 Savannah bug #19615.
1685 * find/ftsfind.c (consider_visiting): If fts_read() returned
1686 FTS_NS, then remember that the stat information is not valid, and
1687 therefore don't set state.have_type or state.have_stat. This
1688 fixes Savannah bug #19613.
1690 * find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-91613.exp,
1691 * find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-91613.xo: New test for Savannah
1692 bug 19613 (assertion failure on symbolic link loop).
1694 * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp: Correctly diagnose a test case
1695 which fails because find was expected to fail and instead
1697 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-many-rtn-failure.exp: The child
1698 process in this test should return non-zero, not zero. Therefore
1699 run "false" instead of "true".
1701 2007-04-15 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1705 * find/find.1: "-printf %b": blocks are 512 bytes. Fixes
1706 Savannah bug #19596.
1708 * doc/Makefile.am (regexprops.texi): Do not use $(RM) because many
1709 versions od make do not set it, and so it expands to nothing.
1710 This avoids suprious emission of the regexprops.texi file to stdout.
1712 * find/find.c (main, safely_chdir_lstat, safely_chdir_nofollow):
1713 Only use O_LARGEFILE if it is #defined (NetBSD-3.1 does not define
1715 * find/ftsfind.c (main): ditto
1716 * find/pred.c (pred_empty, prep_child_for_exec): ditto
1719 * import-gnulib.config: Update to gnuliv 2007-04-14.
1721 * lib/Makefile.am, import-gnulib.sh: Create lib/gnulib-version.c
1722 in import-gnulib.sh, not in lib/Makefile.
1724 * build-aux/Makefile.am: New file; distribute check-tstfiles.sh.
1726 * locate/Makefile.am: mkinstalldirs is now in build-aux.
1728 * doc/Makefile.am: We also need getdate.texi.
1730 2007-04-14 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1732 * doc/.cvsignore: Ignore getdate.texi
1734 * find/defs.h: #include "buildcmd.h" near the top of the file, not
1737 * all: Pass O_LARGEFILE when opening directories.
1739 * all: Changes to allow us to use the FTS_CWDFD mode of fts().
1740 These are quite extensive changes, and are detailed below.
1742 * find/defs.h (struct exec_val): New member dirfd, the directory
1743 in which the exec should take place.
1744 (is_fts_enabled): Tell the caller which flags are passed to
1746 (get_start_dirfd): New function. Returns value of start_desc.
1747 (get_current_dirfd): New function. Returns the fd of the
1748 directory fts is currently traversing. If this is the current
1749 directory, AT_FDCWD is returned.
1750 (complete_pending_execdirs): takes a new argument, indicating
1751 where the exec is to take place. Ugh.
1752 (get_info): the file name is taken from state.rel_pathname, so
1753 we don't need it as a function argument.
1754 (enum DebugOption): Added DebugExec ("-D exec").
1755 (struct state): Added cwd_dir_fd, the directory we are examining
1756 with fts(). If fts() is not in use, this is AT_FDCWD. Also added
1757 execdirs_outstanding, which is a boolean which tells us if there
1758 are any not-yet-execed -execdir or -okdir actions (with +). This
1759 is not really used yet.
1760 * find/ftsfind.c (set_close_on_exec): New function.
1761 (get_current_dirfd): Return an fd open on the directory that fts()
1762 is currently examining.
1763 (left_dir): Signal that our previous ides of which dirctory fts is
1764 searching is now out of date.
1765 (inside_dir): Indicate which directory fts is now searching.
1766 (complete_execdirs_cb): Callback for run_in_dir() to complete
1767 pending execdirs in this directory.
1768 (show_outstanding_execdirs): Supports "-D exec"
1769 consider_visiting(): Do not allow building-up of pending execdirs,
1770 as a workaround to Savannah bug #18466.
1771 (ftsoptions): Make this a static module variable.
1772 * find/parser.c (insert_exec_ok): New parameter describing which
1773 directory the exec should occur in.
1774 (parse_version): for FTS, add a list of options being used.
1775 * find/pred.c (pred_and, pred_comma): No need to pass the relative
1776 path name to get_info(), it can pull it from state.rel_pathname.
1777 (pred_delete): use unlinkat().
1778 (pred_empty): use openat().
1779 (new_impl_pred_exec): Accept an fd parameter describing where the
1780 exec is to take place.
1781 (pred_executable, pred_writable, pred_readable): Use run_in_dir()
1782 to ensure that access() is called in a working directory which is
1783 suitable for the pathname we pass in.
1784 (prep_child_for_exec): In the child process, change to the
1785 appropriate directory becore the exec().
1786 * find/util.c (debugassoc): Support "-D exec".
1787 (get_info): No longer need to pass the relative path to
1789 (do_complete_pending_execdirs): Refactored body of what used to be
1790 complete_pending_execdirs().
1791 (complete_pending_execdirs): Pull body out into
1792 do_complete_pending_execdirs() and call that only if there is work
1794 (fallback_stat, optionh_stat, optionp_stat, optionl_stat): Use fstatat().
1795 (get_start_dirfd): New access function for starting_desc.
1796 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-hier.exp: New test
1797 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-hier.xo: Expected outut for new test
1798 * lib/dircallback.c, lib/dircallback.h: New function,
1799 run_in_dir(), which runs a callback function in a specified
1801 * lib/listfile.c: Use run_in_dir() to call readlink() in the right
1803 (get_link_name_at): Call get_link_name_cb via run_in_dir.
1804 (get_link_name_cb): New callback function, wrappting
1807 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-pwd.exp: Since we have disabled
1808 thebuilding-up of command lines for -execdir, Savannah bug #18466
1809 has been neutralised (but not fixed - we just don't allow the
1810 problem circumstance to occur).
1812 2007-04-09 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1814 * doc/find.texi: Change fully-specified @node directives to
1815 single-argument @node directives in order to accomodate the
1816 inclusion of getdate.texi.
1818 * doc/find.texi: Document -newerXY.
1820 * doc/find.texi (Security Considerations): updated to describe
1821 differences in the fts-based implementation.
1823 * find/find.1: Indicate that testing the birth time where this is
1824 not supported produces a negative result for files where the birth
1825 time is not known (or a fatal error if the file of interest is a
1828 2007-04-08 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1830 * configure.in: Set @AUXDIR@ (to the location of the build-aux
1832 * build-aux/check-testfiles.sh: New script, which checks that all
1833 the DejaGnu test files have been included in the distribution and
1834 (more helpfully) lists any that are missing.
1835 * Makefile.am (findutils-check-testfiles): Use
1836 build-aux/check-testfiles.sh.
1837 * locate/testsuite/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST_EXP): distribute
1838 locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/sv-bug-14535.exp.
1840 * config.rpath, depcomp, missing: Moved into build-aux/.
1841 * configure.in(AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Find aux files in $SRCDIR/build-aux,
1844 2007-03-31 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1846 * find/tree.c (build_expression_tree): Issue more specific error
1847 messages; distinguish the case where the predicate is invalid from
1848 the cases where a required argument is missing, and a supplied
1849 argument is invalid.
1851 * import-gnulib.config (gnulib_version): Update to 2007-03-30
1854 2007-03-28 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1856 * find/defs.h (set_stat_placeholders): utility function for
1857 initialising the sturct stat fields that NetBSD doesn't always set
1858 (like st_birthtime where the file is on a filesystem not
1859 supporting birthtime).
1860 * find/util.c: set_stat_placeholders(): new function
1861 (get_statinfo): Call set_stat_placeholders().
1862 (optionh_stat, optionl_stat, optionp_stat): ditto
1863 * find/find.c (main, wd_sanity_check, safely_chdir_lstat,
1864 process_dir): use set_stat_placeholders().
1865 * find/parser.c (parse_anewer, parse_cnewer, parse_newer,
1866 parse_newerXY): ditto.
1867 (get_stat_Ytime): Support birth time ('B').
1868 (parse_newerXY): Support st_birthtime.
1869 * find/fstype.c (set_fstype_devno): Use set_stat_placeholders().
1870 * find/pred.c (pred_xtype): Use set_stat_placeholders().
1871 (pred_newerXY): Support birth time.

1877 terminal, warn the user that the program specified (or /bin/echo)
1878 will be run at least once, if that is what will happen.
1880 2007-03-24 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1882 * import-gnulib.sh: Added option -d, allowing the user to use a
1883 local version of gnulib, perhaps because they have local changes.
1885 2007-03-13 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1887 * find/parser.c (parse_quit): Estimated success rate of -quit is
1890 2007-03-08 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

1904 clock_gettime(), if it is available.
1906 * find/defs.h: (enum xval): New enumeration, representing the
1907 value of X used in the -newerXY test. It is stored in the reftime
1908 member of 'union args'.
1909 (struct predicate): reftime is also used by -newerXY.
1910 (enum arg_type): Added ARG_SPECIAL_PARSE for -newerXY, because the
1911 parsing function needs to look at the name of the test.
1912 (struct options): start_time is now a struct timespec, not a
1915 * find/parser.c: (parse_newerXY): New parsing function for
1916 -newerXY, a feature copied from FreeBSD (also present other BSD
1917 implementations too)
1918 (get_stat_Ytime): New function; returns st_atime, st_mtime or
1919 st_ctime from struct stat, as a timespec, as required according to
1920 the value of Y in -newerXY.
1921 (found_parser): Factored the tail out of find_parser.
1922 (find_parser): Moved tail into found_parser. Add special handling
1924 (do_parse_xmin): New argument xv, indicating the value to which
1925 predicate->reftime.xval should be set.
1926 (parse_amin): Pass XVAL_ATIME to do_parse_xmin.
1927 (parse_cmin): Pass XVAL_CTIME to do_parse_xmin.
1928 (parse_mmin): Pass XVAL_MTIME to do_parse_xmin.
1929 (parse_newer): Set args.reftime.xval to XVAL_MTIME.
1931 * find/pred.c (pred_table): added pred_XY.
1932 (pred_fls): options.start_time is now a struct timespec, so just
1933 pass the tv_sec member to list_file.
1935 (pred_newerXY): New function, implementing -newerXY.
1937 * find/tree.c (costlookup): pred_newerXY needs stat information.
1938 (build_expression_tree): For predicates of type ARG_SPECIAL_PARSE,
1939 pass them in the name of the predicate (that is, don't advance
1942 * find/util.c (now): New function for setting options.start_time.
1943 Use nanoseconds where it is available.
1944 (set_option_defaults): Use now() rather than time().
1946 2007-03-03 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1948 * import-gnulib.sh: Pass --with-tests to gnulib-tool so that relevant
1949 gnulib unit tests are built and are run for "make check".
1951 * configure.in (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Add tests/Makefile (the makefile
1952 for the gnulib unit tests).
1954 * Makefile.am: Add 'tests' to SUBDIRS.
1956 * .cvsignore: Add 'tests'.
1958 * import-gnulib.config (modules): Also use Gnulib modules
1959 mbscasestr and mbsstr in order to perform correct string searching
1960 in multibyte strings, in order to fix Savannah bug #14535.
1962 * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/sv-bug-14535.exp: new test case for
1963 Savannah bug #14535.
1965 * locale/locate.c (visit_substring_match_nocasefold): Use mbsstr
1966 rather than strstr, in order to correctly support multibyte
1968 (visit_substring_match_casefold): Use mbscasestr rather than
1969 strstr in order to correctly support case-folding in a multibyte
1970 environment (e.g. with UTF-8 characters outside the normal ASCII
1971 range). This fixes Savannah bug #14535.
1972 (struct casefolder): No longer needed, removed
1973 (visit_casefold): No longer needed, removed.
1974 (lc_strcpy): No longer needed, removed.
1975 (search_one_database): Removed redundant variable need_fold and
1976 the code which used to set it. It had controlled the adding of
1977 the visitor function visit_casefold, but that function itself is
1978 no longer required. Also there is now no need to pass in a
1979 lower-case argument to visit_substring_match_casefold, so don't
1980 pass that in the context argument.
1982 * locate/locate.c (usage): Fixed typo.
1984 2007-03-01 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1986 * doc/find.texi (Multiple Files): Document the construct

1999 * lib/gnulib-version.h, lib/gnulib-version.sh: New files; code for
2000 reporting which version of Gnulib we built findutils from.
2002 * lib/Makefile.am: Build gnulib-version.c out of
2003 ./gnulib-version.config by using lib/gnulib-version.sh.
2005 * Makefile.am: Ship import-gnulib.config and import-gnulib.sh.
2007 * .cvsignore: Ignore gnulib-cvs
2009 * lib/.cvsignore: Ignore gnulib-version.c
2011 * find/parser.c, locate/code.c, locate/locate.c, xargs/xargs.c:
2012 Report which version of Gnulib we were built from.
2014 2007-02-25 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2016 * find/find.c (process_dir): Removed duplicated (shadow)
2017 declaration of did_stat. Assert that we did not use subdirs_left
2018 if subdirs_unreliable is true.
2020 * find/parser.c (parse_size): Removed unused variable rate.
2021 (parse_time): Removed unused variable num_days_approx.
2022 (get_num): Removed unused variables ok and suffixes.
2024 * find/pred.c (do_fprintf): Indicate that the function needs a
2025 return value (referring to Savannah bug #19146).
2027 * find/tree.c (predlist_dump): Commented out unused function
2028 (predlist_merge_nosort): Commented out unused function
2029 (getrate): Returns type is float, so return 1.0f not 1.0.
2030 (calculate_derived_rates): Removed unused variable rate. Use a
2031 switch statement rater than ifs.
2033 * find/util.c (usage): Removed unused variable i.
2035 * lib/buildcmd.c (bc_do_insert): Removed unused variable
2037 (bc_init_controlinfo): annotate a line (with #warning) which is
2040 * locate/locate.c: #include <grp.h> for the benefit of the
2041 setgroups() call in drop_privs.
2042 (slocate_db_pathname): Commented out unused variable.
2043 (set_max_db_age): error command has no format directive, so
2044 remove the unused extra argument.
2045 (looking_at_slocate_db): Removed unused variables magic and
2046 lenwanted. Fix bug where result is indeterminate (due to falling
2047 off the end of the function) if the first character is a nondigit.
2048 (search_one_database): Eliminate (spurious) compiler warning
2049 rlating to possible use before initialisation of slocate_seclevel.
2051 * xargs/xargs.c (get_char_oct_or_hex_escape): Eliminate spurious
2052 compiler warning on variable p.
2053 (main): Removed unused varible env_too_big
2056 2007-02-24 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2058 * find/parser.c (pred_sanity_check): define this function even for
2059 _NDEBUG, but do nothing in that case.
2060 (estimate_timestamp_success_rate): correct (invert) the sense of
2061 the subtraction used to find the file's age.
2063 * import-gnulib.sh (findutils_modules): Import Gnulib modules
2064 xstrtod and timespec.
2066 * find/parser.c (get_comp_type): Refactored out of get_num.
2067 (get_num): call get_comp_type to find the comparison type.
2068 (get_relative_timestamp): new function replacing get_num_days.
2069 (get_num_days): Remove.
2070 (do_parse_xmin): Support fractional arguments and
2071 nanosecond timestamps.
2075 * xargs/xargs.c (read_line): Give a warning message if a NUL is
2076 found in the input (this function is called only when -0 is not in
2079 * xargs/xargs.c (nullwarning_given): New variable indicating if
2080 the NULL character warning had already been issued.
2082 * doc/find.texi (Multiple Files): Describe how trailing blanks are
2083 handled when -L is in effect.
2085 * xargs/xargs.c (read_line): Use an enum rather than
2086 preprocessor macro values for the lexer state.
2088 * lib/savedirinfo.c (free_dirinfo): Fixed memory leak (trivial
2089 patch from Supriya Kannery)
2091 2007-01-22 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2093 * .cvsignore (install-sh): Ignore, since the install-sh file is no
2094 longer held in the findutils CVS repository.
2096 * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp (find_start): allow a test to be
2097 skipped for either the old or the new find executable.
2098 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-pwd.exp,
2099 find/testsuite/Makefile.am:
2100 New test, covering Savannah bug #18466. This test currently fails
2101 for the ftsfind binary and passes for the oldfind binary. Due to
2102 a limitation in the way that we perform the test, we can't tell
2103 the test suite to expect a failure in the new binary but not the
2104 old. Therefore we skip the test for the old binary.
2106 * lib/regeprops.c (describe_regex_syntax): fixed a typo in the text
2107 * doc/find.texi (Multiple Files): fixed a typo
2109 2007-01-16 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2111 (ctime_format): format the time manually (rather than using ctime)
2112 in order to include the sub-second part of the time.
2113 (weekdays, months): new static variables used by ctime_format.
2114 (format_date): append a the sub-second part of the timestamp to
2115 the seconds part of date/time output.
2117 2007-01-15 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2119 * find/defs.h (time_val): define struct; use timespec to hold time
2120 in the 'reftime' member.
2121 (args): use struct timespec instead of time_t for predicates
2122 -newer, -anewer, -cnewer. * find/parser.c (includes): include
2124 (parse_anewer, parse_cnewer, parse_newer): use struct timespec to
2125 hold timestamps. * find/pred.c (compare_ts): new function for
2126 comparing timestamps in struct timespec.
2127 (pred_anewer, pred_cnewer, pred_newer): use compare_ts() to
2128 compare timestamps (hence takinng acoung of sub-second
2130 * find/ftsfind.c: Various improvements to comments.
2131 (is_fts_enabled): Newline before function name to comply with GNU
2134 2007-01-13 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2136 * lib/regexprops.c (describe_regex_syntax): fixed typo
2138 * xargs/xargs.c (read_line): Fixed Savannah bug# 18714; VT and FF
2139 are not separators, according to POSIX (in the POSIX locale).
2141 * xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am,
2142 xargs/testsuite/input/formfeeds.xi,
2143 xargs/testsuite/input/verticaltabs.xi,
2144 xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/sv-bug-18714.exp,

2146 xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/sv-bug-18714b.exp,
2147 xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/sv-bug-18714b.xo: Tests for Savannah
2150 * xargs/xargs.c (usage): Removed suprious "[" in --help output
2151 (fixes Savannah bug #18384).
2153 * locate/locate.c: Implement the option --max-database-age.
2154 (main) Accept the option.
2155 (set_max_db_age): Parse the argument.
2157 * locate/locate.c (dolocate): If the database is more than N days
2158 old, indicate its actual age in the warning message we produce.
2160 * locate/locate.1, docs/find.texi: Document --max-database-age

2173 2007-01-07 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2175 * find/parser.c (parse_perm), find/testsuite/find.gnu/perm000.exp,
2176 find/testsuite/find.gnu/perm000.xo: -perm /000 is now quivalent
2177 to -perm -000, as dscussed in Savannah bug #14748. The warning
2178 message we issue when the user does this now explains that the
2179 defintion changed as we promised it would in 2005.
2181 * xargs/xargs.c (read_line): Correctly handle quoted empty
2182 arguments occurring first or last on a line (by adding an empty
2183 argument to the output). Fixes Savannah bug #18713.
2185 * xargs/testsuite/xargs.sysv/sv-bug-18713.exp,
2186 xargs/testsuite/xargs.sysv/sv-bug-18713.xo,
2187 xargs/testsuite/input/empty.xi: Test case for Savannah bug #18713.
2190 2006-12-29 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

2202 Avoid tests using -execdir if $PATH contains a relative directory
2205 Also flag $PATH values containing relative directories as being dangerous.
2207 * find/parser.c, find/defs.h, find/util.c:
2208 Instead of selecting the old or new exec handling code with the NEW_EXEC macro, just use the new code all the time
2210 * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
2211 Fixed Savannah bug #13252, test suite failure caused by the fact that 'file normalize' is not available in Tcl 8.3
2213 * NEWS, find/pred.c:
2214 Fixed Savannah bug #18433, compilation failure with configure --enable-debug

2238 * doc/textinfo.tex: Removed; we now use the version supplied
2241 * m4/mkinstalldirs.m4: Added this file. It's an excerpt from an
2242 old version of gnulib's m4/nls.po file. The current version of
2243 gnulib does not expand MKINSTALLDIRS, but gettext-0.14.6's version
2244 of po/Makefile.in.in expects it to be expanded. This m4 file
2247 2006-11-20 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2249 * po/et.po, po/bg.po, po/pl.po, po/nl.po, po/tr.po: Updated
2250 translations for Bulgarian, Estonian, Dutch, Polish and Turkish.
2252 2006-11-08 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2254 * find/testsuite/Makefile.am:
2255 Oops, indicate the right directory for the new test files
2257 * ChangeLog, depcomp, doc/texinfo.tex, find/ftsfind.c, find/testsuite/Makefile.am, find/testsuite/find.gnu/sv-bug-18222.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/sv-bug-18222.xo, install-sh:
2258 Savannah bug#18222 - test case
2260 * ChangeLog, lib/buildcmd.c:
2261 Fixed Svannah bug #17782 ('./' prefix added at start of arg while it should be added at the start of the expansion of {})
2263 * find/ftsfind.c (process_all_startpoints): Set
2264 state.starting_path_length for every pathname argument.
2265 This fixes Savannah bug #18222.
2267 * find/pred.c (pred_prune): -prune should have an effect only if we are
2268 currently considering a directory (Savannah bug #15531).
2270 2006-10-15 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2272 * lib/buildcmd.c: Fixed Savannah bug #17782, in which "find
2273 -execdir echo "foo {}" runs 'echo ./foo filename' instead of the
2274 correct command 'echo foo ./filename'.
2276 * po/hu.po, po/sl.po: Updated Hungarian and Slovenian po files
2278 2006-08-21 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2280 * find/parser.c, find/testsuite/Makefile.am, find/testsuite/find.gnu/sv-bug-17490.exp:
2281 Fixed Savannah bug #17490, which was a coiredump when -regex ZZZ was the final test on the command line
2283 2006-08-20 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2285 * find/parser.c: Merged the fix for the trailing % in "find -printf".
2287 2006-08-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2289 Port recent fixes for symbolic modes involving X from gnulib,
2290 and clarify the documentation in this area.
2291 * doc/find.texi: Use "file mode bits" when talking about
2292 all the file mode bits (including setuid, setgid, and sticky),
2293 and "permissions" when talking only about permissions bits
2294 (read, write, execute/search). Use "execute/search" to
2295 talk about the x bit, since it means both. You do not need
2296 permission to the linked-to file to follow a symlink for
2297 syscalls like "stat", but you do need search permission for
2298 the directories you traverse. Clarify the explanation of
2299 -perm. Use "that" instead of "which" when "which" isn't
2300 quite correct English.
2301 (Mode Bits): Renamed from Permissions. All uses changed.
2302 * doc/perm.texi: Sync from coreutils 6.0.
2303 * find/defs.h (struct perm_val.val): Now an array of two items,
2304 one for non-directories, and one for directories. This is
2305 to handle symbolic modes like +X correctly.
2306 * find/parser.c (parse_perm): Likewise. Also, adjust to
2307 latest gnulib interface for mode_adjust.
2308 * find/pred.c (pred_perm): Likewise.
2309 * find/testsuite/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST_XO): Add find.posix/perm-X.xo.
2310 (EXTRA_DIST_EXP): Add find.posix/perm-X.exp.
2311 * find/testsuite/find.posix/perm-X.exp: New file.
2312 * find/testsuite/find.posix/perm-X.so: New file.
2314 2006-08-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2316 Port to latest gnulib, and simplify the bootstrapping procedure.
2317 * intl: Remove this directory and everything in it.
2318 * depcomp, install-sh, missing, mkinstalldirs, doc/texinfo.tex:
2319 Remove these files from CVS, as they are now gotten from gnulib.
2320 * README-CVS: Don't recommend "autoreconf -i", as it doesn't work
2322 * import-gnulib.sh (findutils_files): New var. Grab this stuff
2324 (findutils_modules): Add fopen-safer; remove stdio-safer. This
2325 adjusts to latest gnulib.
2326 (modules): Remove obsolete reference to intl_modules.
2327 * .cvsignore: Remove stamp-h; add stamp-h1.
2328 * doc/.cvsignore: Add regexprops.texi.
2329 * find/.cvsignore: Add oldfind.
2330 * lib/.cvsignore: Add .deps, regexprops.
2331 * m4/.cvsignore: Add Makefile.
2332 * po/.cvsignore: Add stamp-po.
2334 2006-08-19 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2336 * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp, locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/bigprefix1.exp:
2337 Explicit checks for parefixes which are within range of a short, but outside the one-byte range
2339 * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/bigprefix1.exp, locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/exceedshort.exp, locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/space1st.exp:
2342 * locate/testsuite/Makefile.am, locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/exceedshort.exp, locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/space1st.exp:
2343 Patch from Tavis Ormandy; check frcode handles initial space end encodes paths with more than 2^16 characters in the common prefix (trivial change)
2345 * locate/frcode.c: Changes to avoid overflows
2347 2006-08-11 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2350 Avoid producing an invalid database if the first item begins with a space
2352 2006-08-10 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2354 * find/pred.c, import-gnulib.sh, lib/listfile.c:
2355 Updated callers of the gnnulib filemode module so that they work with the 2006-07-09 version of gnulib

2368 * find/ftsfind.c: display fts_level for find -D search
2370 * find/util.c: Support find -D search
2373 If the user specified -E but the database is an slocate database, do
2374 not produce a list of files they cannot stat. Issue an error message
2375 explaining the problem.
2378 Issue states messages in a way which indicates more clearly what's
2379 happening when the numbers are reduced because not every filename
2380 matched the pattern.
2382 * locate/locate.c: Better error checking in drop_privs().
2384 2006-08-07 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2386 * NEWS, locate/locate.c, locate/locatedb.h:
2387 Added support for slocate database format
2390 Removed unused code (tivial patch from Miloslav Trmac).
2392 * xargs/xargs.c: Removed unused code.
2395 Clarify that the output format for locate -S differs from BSD's.

2423 Be more paranoid about whether we're really checking the right version
2426 * NEWS, configure.in: Prepare for release of 4.3.1
2428 * doc/find.texi: Document the -O and -D options
2430 * find/defs.h, find/find.1, find/util.c:
2431 'find -D help' now explains the available debugging options

2634 2005-12-10 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2637 Aaron Hawley: Updated perm.texi from the coreutils distribution
2640 Avoid using entries which have the same name as POSIX library
2641 functions (fprintf, printf, exec) as the implementation is allowed to
2642 #define these. That generates hard-to-grok compilation errors.
2644 2005-12-10 Andreas Metzler <gnu@downhill.at.eu.org>
2646 * ChangeLog, NEWS, configure.in, find/defs.h, find/parser.c:

2661 Savannah patch #3775 from Aaron Hawley: reconciling man pages
2662 differences; did not apply the patch, but resolved all the
2663 remaining issues manually by updating the documentation (mostly
2664 the Texinfo documentation, which was missing a number of specific
2665 technical statements about the behaviour of various options)
2667 2005-12-04 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2669 * doc/find.texi: Document --show-limits

2687 Typo "Ilegal"; change to "Invalid" since this is not really illegal!
2688 Bug report by Primoz Peterlin.
2690 * lib/regexprops.c, xargs/xargs.c:
2691 Prefer the word 'Invalid' or the phrase 'not allowed' over
2692 'Illegal', as per the GNU coding standards, and as per the
2693 suggestion from Benno Schulenberg
2695 2005-11-24 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2697 * NEWS, lib/buildcmd.c, lib/buildcmd.h: Merge to trunk from 4.2.x fixes

2704 allow (to avoid exec limits on Linux/PPC)
2706 2005-11-23 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2708 * NEWS: Bug #14921 has been fixed.
2711 Savannah bug #14921: when a Linux bind filesystem is in use, find
2712 would expand '-printf %F' to 'none' if a bind mount targetted the same
2713 filesystem as the one containing the file to be described.
2715 * NEWS: Updated to describe recent changes
2717 * doc/find.texi, find/find.1: Documented find -printf %M

2725 system's value of ARG_MAX is different from the development/test
2728 * lib/buildcmd.c: reindent and untabify
2730 * configure.in: The CVS code is moving on from the previous release.
2732 2005-11-22 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2734 * ChangeLog: Updated with recent changes.
2736 2005-11-21 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2738 * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
2739 Even if we expect locate to return a nonzero status, the test should
2740 still fail if updatedb fails!
2742 * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/ignore_case2.exp:
2743 Set the current directory for updatedb. This test case is supposed to
2744 fail because the filename is not matched, not because updatedb fails!
2746 * locate/updatedb.sh:
2747 Check the binaries actually exist in the place we expect.
2749 2005-11-20 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2751 * locate/locate.1, xargs/xargs.1: Escape '-' as '\-' where appropriate.

2769 Correctly indicate the default regular expression syntax (fixes
2770 Savannah bug #14836).

2780 xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/arg_max_64bit_linux_bug.xo: Applied
2781 bugfix from Jim Meyering (tiny change), where many short arguments
2782 would cause xargs (and probably find -exec .. {} +) to fail
2783 because execve() returns E2BIG, which we should avoid

3155 [this change is currently on a branch only]
3157 2005-07-30 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3159 * find/finddata.c, find/ftsfind.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c,
3160 find/util.c, m4/Makefile.am, m4/withfts.m4: Initial attempt to
3161 convert find to use gnulib's fts()

3171 2005-07-29 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3173 * NEWS, configure.in
3174 Prepared for the release of findutils-4.2.24
3176 * ChangeLog: Updated with recent changes.
3178 * NEWS, find/find.1, doc/find.texi:
3179 Indicate that -ok and -okdir redirect stdin from /dev/null.
3181 * NEWS: Explain the directory link count change more throroughly.
3183 * NEWS: Fixed bug #13973.
3185 * find/pred.c (pred_fprintf): Fix Savannah bug #13973: Modify the
3186 handling of -printf %Y so that it no longer modifies stat_buf
3188 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf-symlink.exp,
3189 find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf-symlink.xo: Detect Savannah bug
3190 #13973: pollution of stat_buf by the %Y directive (trivial change
3191 from Andreas Metzler)
3193 * INSTALL, depcomp, doc/texinfo.tex, install-sh, missing, mkinstalldirs:
3194 Updated auxilliary files from the automake-1.9 distribution
3197 Introduce new Automake conditional, CROSS_COMPILING, true when we are corss compiling
3200 If we decline to follow a symbolic link due to the safety check, issue a more self-explanatory warning message
3202 * lib/Makefile.am: Don't build regexprops if we are cross compiling
3205 Depend on the regex.h file rather than the 'regexprops' binary,
3206 because the header file will always exist even if we are doing "make
3207 dist". Otherwise "make distcheck" fails because it tries to rebuild
3208 find.info while the source-directory is read-only.
3210 2005-07-28 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3213 Say "other users" rather than "rest of the world" when talking about
3214 Unix permissions. Fixes Savannah bug #4246.

3230 than two, disable the leaf optimisation for this directory.
3232 2005-07-26 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3234 * lib/regexprops.c: Further small corrections from Karl.
3237 Reordered the sections in the manual to put the "Common Tasks" and
3238 "Worked Examples" chapters together.
3240 * configure.in, find/find.c: Allow the leaf optimisation to be
3241 disabled by default with the configure option
3242 --disable-leaf-optimisation
3244 * find/find.c: Removed old code for antuqie version of savedir().
3246 * lib/regextype.c: Put the syntaxes in alphabetical order.
3248 * lib/regexprops.c: Karl made some more readability suggestions.
3250 2005-07-24 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3252 * doc/Makefile.am: If the regexprops program has changed we should
3253 re-run it, since it will probably now produce different output
3256 Allow the caller to detect if one regex type is identical to another.
3259 Define the preprocessor macro FINDUTILS for that code int he lib/
3260 directory can be slightly more reusable.
3263 Allow the caller to detect if one regex type is identical to another.
3266 Made Texinfo style corrections suggested by Karl Berry.
3268 2005-07-22 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3270 * xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/childfail.exp, xargs/xargs.c: Fix
3271 Savannah bug #13878, in which xargs deals incorrectly with child
3272 failure, returning 0 when it should return 123

3276 * find/find.1: (tiny change) Corrections by Greg Wooledge
3278 2005-07-16 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

3285 Added in the example about updating an aggregate timestamp file.
3287 2005-07-15 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3289 * po/da.po: Updated Danish translation from translation project
3291 2005-07-14 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3293 * NEWS, doc/Makefile.am, doc/find.texi, lib/Makefile.am,

3295 --regextype and -regextype options to locate and find
3296 respectively, and documented these
3298 * doc/find.texi: We use GNU Emacs regexps by default now.
3301 We require GNU sort in order for locate to handle newlines correctly,
3304 2005-07-10 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3307 Applied several documentation improvement patches from Aaron Hawley

3318 * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c:
3319 Fixed Savannah bug #13650; programs run by -exec cannot read stdin
3321 2005-07-04 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3323 * NEWS: *** empty log message ***
3326 Added a "Worked Examples" section. It currently only contains a
3327 (long) example about deleting files.
3329 * .cvsignore: Some extra stuff to ignore.
3331 2005-07-03 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3333 * find/Makefile.am: Don't need regexprops.c really...
3335 * lib/regextype.c, lib/regextype.h:
3336 New files for selecting regex type based on a keyword
3338 * locate/locate.1: Documented the fact that we now use Emacs-style
3339 regexps, not POSIX EREs, for compatibility with find -regex.

3356 to F when stderr is closed.
3358 * find/parser.c: Include "stdio-safer.h".
3359 (open_output_file): Use fopen_safer, not fopen.
3360 * import-gnulib.sh (findutils_modules): Add stdio-safer.
3362 2005-07-01 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3365 Aaron pointed out a potentially-confusing sentence. I fixed it.
3367 * find/defs.h, find/find.1, find/find.c, find/parser.c,
3368 find/pred.c, find/util.c: Allow consistency-checking of the
3369 predicates, checking for example that actions all have side

3455 2005-06-12 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3457 * find/find.c, NEWS:
3458 Savannah bug #13381 (Debian bug 313081): if we have O_NOFOLLOW,
3459 safely_chdir() does not need to call stat(). However, process_dir()
3460 used to rely on using that stat information. To work around this
3461 problem, there is now an output parameter in safely_chdir() which
3462 indicates if the stat buffer is valid.
3463 This bug has possible security implications.
3465 * find/find.1, doc/find.texi:
3466 Applied patch from Andreas Metzler, improving the wording for the
3467 documentation of the %k and %b format directives. This patch does
3468 not require a copyright assignment as it consists of several
3469 copies of the same small wording change.
3471 2005-06-11 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3473 * find/find.1: Corrected spelling error 'writeable' to 'writable'.

3481 new scheme for saving directory entry data which is extensible to
3482 allow additional data to be saved.
3484 2005-06-09 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3486 * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
3487 Use the new normalize_dir procedure throughout.
3489 * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp: Move the normalisation into a
3490 procedure. Don't rely on the "file normalize" command being
3491 available (it's new in Tcl 8.4).
3493 2005-06-08 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3495 * ChangeLog, NEWS, configure.in: Updated for recent changes
3498 Explain that you should put the argument of -name in quotes.
3501 Added a new "NON-BUGS" section pointing out things that look like bugs
3502 but are caused by mistakes or misunderstandings.
3504 * doc/find.texi, locate/locate.1: Applied Bas van Gompel's patch
3505 which allows the database to be read from stdin.
3508 Read the database in by using the "visitor" pattern. Modified file
3509 header comment to indicate that we no longer use the efficient
3510 algorith described in ;login:. Emit an error message if the
3511 LOCATE_PATH variable implies that we should read stdin twice.
3512 Most of this code is from Bas van Gompel.
3514 * AUTHORS: Credit Bas van Gompel for his work on locate.
3516 * lib/printquoted.h: Appled patch from Bas - fixing compiler warning.

3861 Distribute the test cases for the recent "find -depth" bug.
3863 * find/testsuite/find.posix/depth1.exp, find/testsuite/find.posix/depth1.xo:
3864 Added test case for find -depth bug reported by Joseph S. Myers
3867 If -depth is in effect, processing of the subdirectories invalidates
3868 the information in 'state'. Therefore once we get around to
3869 processing the predicates, restore the information that we keep in
3870 'state' and in 'stat_buf'.
3872 2005-02-15 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3874 * ChangeLog: Updated with recent changes
3877 Emphasise that -L causes find to recurse into subdirectories pointed
3878 to by symbolic links.
3881 Patch to find.1 from Aaron Hawley <Aaron.Hawley@uvm.edu>:
3883 * Notes about -H actually apply to -L.

3898 Current Working Directory" so that it doesn't generate such a huge
3901 * find/find.c: Parenthesise #if defined(...).
3903 2005-02-13 Dmitry V. Levin <ldv@altlinux.org>
3905 * find/find.c: remove test code snippet (time(NULL) was used to
3906 place a marker for spotting with strace(), but was not actually
3909 * find/find.c (safely_chdir_nofollow): must not fall back on
3910 safely_chdir_lstat() because that will expose it to race condition
3911 exploits, making it pointless.
3913 * find/find.c (safely_chdir_lstat): Move
3914 complete_pending_execdirs() up into safely_chdir(), because we
3915 need to do that in either case.
3917 2005-02-12 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3919 * configure.in, doc/find.texi, find/defs.h, find/find.c,
3920 find/parser.c: Fix for Savannah bug #11879, that

3932 results, and add extra cross-references in the SEE ALSO section.
3934 2005-02-08 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3936 * xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am: Distribute the .xe files also.

3939 the distribution also.

3948 may not be sorted with the same collating order as 'sort' used to
3949 order the output of "find. Bug spotted by Vin Shelton and Dimitry

3993 for -execdir/-okdir.
3995 * find/pred.c (pred_execdir, pred_okdir): Use state.rel_pathname
3996 instead of basename(pathname). Do not add "./" prefix for

4002 xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/savannah-11865.xo, xargs/xargs.c:
4003 Fixed Savannah bug #11866 (not resetting number of used chars in
4004 the command buffer) - reported by Dimitry V. Levin
4006 2005-02-05 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4009 Added thanks for Dimitry - has produced many patches, bugfixes and
4013 Fixed Savannah bug #11866: typo in pred_okdir() renders it useless
4016 Savannah bug #11861: undefined symbol 'basename' on IRIX 5.3

4034 * po/fetch-po-files: This is the first version we actually used.
4036 * find/find.c: process_top_path() fixed compilation warning.
4038 * find/find.c: process_top_path(): avoid processing this item if
4039 we can't chdir to the basename of the named file.
4041 * lib/Makefile.am: Always build forcefindlib.c
4043 * locate/locate.c: Say 'base name' rather than 'basename' in comments
4045 * find/pred.c, find/find.c: process_top_path(): Proper bugfix for
4046 correct handling of items at depth 0 (i.e. specified on the
4047 command line) - do an extra chdir to ensure that we're in the
4048 directory containing the item before calling process_path().
4049 Hnece also undo the previous 'quick fix' for the same problem
4052 -execdir no longer has to treat anything as special, even at depth 0.
4054 2005-02-03 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

4105 therefore also have the lines in the .xo files ready-sorted.
4107 * po/ca.po: Updated from Translation Project

4125 Added rules for extra targets that we buld to update the web site.
4127 2005-01-29 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4129 * configure.in: No longer version 4.2.15 - we've changed the manual.
4132 Clarified the txt about adding extra tests with post-processing via
4133 xargs, and recommend -execdir instead for security reasons.
4135 * doc/find.texi: Patch from Karl Berry:
4136 - more entries for the dir file
4137 - use @copying so the copyright ends up in the HTML etc. output.
4138 (This is the only really important change.)
4139 - put @contents after the title page, for conventional toc location.
4140 - use @ifnottex to wrap the Top node instead of @ifinfo, for the sake of

4197 2005-01-24 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4199 * Makefile.am: Work around the fact that automake-1.7 actually
4200 works, and correctly distributes regex.c; hence dist-hook should
4201 only copy gnulib/lib/regex.c if this has not already been done.
4203 * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/pred.c,

4211 * NEWS: Avoid including the find.gnu subdirectory in the
4212 distributed file more than once
4215 Move the printing of the statistics into a new function, print_stats()
4217 * find/testsuite/Makefile.am: Avoid including the find.gnu
4218 subdirectory in the distributed file more than once
4221 We need the regex module anyway, to allow compilation on Solaris
4223 2005-01-23 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4226 Invoke gl_INCLUDED_REGEX directly to ensure successful compilation on
4227 systems like Solaris, which lacks those functions in libc (fixes GNU
4228 Savannah bug #11710).
4230 * locate/locate.1: -S is a synonym for --statistics
4232 * doc/find.texi: Documented the new -H, -L and -P options.
4234 * locate/locate.1, locate/locate.c: Implement options -L
4235 (default), -H and -P, which mean the same things as for find,
4236 except for the fact that the default is -L rather than -P
4238 * find/find.1: Corrected definition of the exit status for -quit.
4240 * find/find.c, find/pred.c: If DEBUG_STAT is set, issue a debug
4241 message when we call chdir() so that we can figure out what is
4242 actually being stat()ed
4244 * locate/updatedb.sh:

4296 * lib/savedirinfo.c: Added on branch d_type_optimisation also.
4298 * find/pred.c: Added assert that we actually know the file type by
4299 the time pred_type() is called
4301 * find/find.c: Always initialise state.have_stat = false when
4302 starting to work with a new file

4314 Indicate that -quit still ensures that pending commands are invoked
4317 Indicate that -quit still causes partial command lines to be invoked,
4318 but there are some types of fatal error which leave such commands
4321 * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/pred.c, find/testsuite/Makefile.am, find/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
4322 Fixed savannah bug #11625 Wrong return status for -exec ... \; when command fails; also execute any pending commands when doing -quit

4325 Various test cases for succeeding and failing forms of -exec \; and -exec {} +
4327 * find/pred.c: "-exec ... {} +" always returns "true".
4329 * configure.in, find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c, find/tree.c, find/util.c:
4330 Implemented d_type optimisation but not working correctly, so currently disabled
4332 * lib/savedirinfo.h, lib/savedirinfo.c:
4333 Initial implementation (temporarily disabled).
4335 * lib/Makefile.am: Resolved merge conflict.
4338 Make sure nextelem.h is included in the list of sources.
4340 * find/parser.c, lib/nextelem.c, lib/nextelem.h, locate/locate.c:

4343 2005-01-16 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4345 * find/find.c, find/pred.c:
4346 When completing incomplete multiple execs, use 'eval_tree' not 'predicates'
4349 Oops, initialise state->cmd_initial_argv_chars to zero.
4352 Document the way that -execdir and -okdir will refuse to wqork if ">"
4353 is on $PATH. Also document -okdir in the manpage.
4356 -execdir and -okdir are insecure if $PATH includes the current
4357 directory, and so they refuse to work if the user has done that.
4360 Oops; for -exec ... {} +, pass arguments to bc_push_arg() in the right
4361 order. Problem spotted by Geoff Clare.
4363 * TODO: Removed items which have now been done.
4365 * lib/buildcmd.c: Tidied up formatting of arg list for bc_do_insert
4367 2005-01-15 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

4404 2005-01-08 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4406 * find/find.c: Fixed typo in comment.
4408 * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c:
4409 We now understand but do not implement -execdir (a *BSD invention, and a very useful security enhancement) and -okdir (the obvious companion to it)
4411 * locate/bigram.c, locate/code.c, locate/frcode.c, locate/locate.c, xargs/xargs.c:
4412 The GNU coding standard requires a space between the function name and
4413 its parenthesised argument list.
4416 Understand the -exec ... {} \+ construction (for multiple
4417 replacement). No support yet.
4420 Indicate that empty elements in the dbpath are treated as synonyms for
4421 the default database.
4424 Support empty elements in the dbpath as synonyms for the default
4425 database. These colons can be leading, trailing or in the middle of
4426 the string. We no longer com,plain if the user does this.
4429 If curdir_ok is 0 and an element is empty, return "" instead of NULL
4430 so that the caller knows to keep calling us.
4432 * find/find.c, find/pred.c, import-gnulib.sh, locate/bigram.c, locate/code.c, locate/frcode.c, locate/locate.c, xargs/xargs.c:

4436 changed .pot creation date
4438 * THANKS, AUTHORS: Take into account the FSF copyright-assignments list
4441 If -quit is used, the exit value can be nonzero if errors have occurred.
4444 Removed incorrect comment about -H, -P and -follow in HISTORY.
4446 2005-01-07 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4448 * lib/Makefile.am, lib/buildcmd.c, lib/buildcmd.h, xargs/xargs.c:
4449 Refactored xargs to use an external library function from the new file buildcmd.c
4451 * configure.in: no longer the same as the released 4.2.11 version
4453 2005-01-06 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

4461 tests for the -l option
4463 * xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am: Added extra test files
4465 * xargs/testsuite/xargs.sysv/trace.exp, xargs/testsuite/xargs.sysv/trace.xe, xargs/testsuite/xargs.sysv/trace.xo:
4466 Added tests for the -t option
4468 * xargs/testsuite/config/unix.exp, xargs/testsuite/inputs/foobar.xi, xargs/testsuite/xargs.gnu/r.exp, xargs/testsuite/xargs.gnu/r.xo, xargs/xargs.1:
4469 Use a blanks-only input file for cases where there is supposed to be no output
4471 * xargs/testsuite/inputs/blank.xi: Initial version.
4474 Corrected a typo; also indicate that it's impossible to use xargs
4475 securely due to the race condition.
4477 2005-01-05 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4480 Fixed Savannah bug 11495: fallthrough from -printf format processing
4481 from 'n' case to 'd' case.
4483 2005-01-03 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4486 Oops. Had duplicated an entire section. Fortunately this was after
4487 @bye, so there was no adverse effect.
4491 * doc/find.texi, locate/locate.1: document locate -S
4493 * configure.in, doc/find.texi, locate/locate.1, locate/locate.c:
4494 Support locate -b as a synonym for locate --basename
4496 * po/da.po, po/de.po, po/es.po, po/et.po, po/findutils.pot, po/fr.po, po/gl.po, po/id.po, po/it.po, po/ko.po, po/nl.po, po/pl.po, po/pt_BR.po, po/ru.po, po/sk.po, po/sv.po, po/tr.po:

4505 2005-01-02 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4507 * ChangeLog: Updated with recent changes.
4510 Bas van Gompel: two-line patch to locate.c to make locate's -i and -w
4511 options work if -e is in use.
4513 * THANKS: Added Bas van Gompel.
4516 Bas van Gompel: (visit_exists) when testing for the existence of the
4517 file, check the real filename [printname], not the case-converted
4518 filename [testname]. Really these argument names are badly chosen.
4520 * find/find.1, doc/find.texi:
4521 Improved the documentation for -perm, with plenty of examples,
4522 following a comment by Dan Jacobson that the comment "Symbolic modes
4523 use mode 0 as a point of departure" is baffling and unhelpful.
4526 Suggestion and patch from Bas van Gompel: (new_locate): Fix display of
4527 negative compression ratios.
4529 2004-12-31 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4531 * NEWS: Brought up to date with recent changes

4546 (visit_substring_match_casefold): fix off-by-one error.
4547 (new_locate): Move visit_exists down to improve performance.
4548 (new_locate): Don't fold case when getting stats.
4550 2004-12-19 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4553 Indicate that "cd /; find tmp -wholename /tmp" will never match anything.
4555 * doc/find.texi: Documented locate --statistics.
4557 * locate/locate.1: Documented the --statistics option.
4559 * locate/locate.c: Added support for the -S option.
4561 2004-12-12 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4563 * NEWS: Added a summary of the changes so far.
4565 * find/tree.c: Made some of the error messages more self-explanatory

4587 * find/find.c: Oops. Fixed unmatched #endif.
4589 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf.xo, THANKS, configure.in, find/testsuite/Makefile.am, find/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
4590 Fixed Savannah bug #11280
4593 Remember to set path_length and curdepth in process_top_path().
4595 2004-12-07 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4597 * find/fstype.c: Use xstat() not stat() to examine things.
4599 * find/find.c: Explain why #ifdef EOVERFLOW.
4601 * find/find.c: EOVERFLOW is not defined on UNICOS.

4614 * ChangeLog: Updated prior to release of finsutils-4.2.10.
4616 * import-gnulib.sh, find/fstype.c:
4617 Use gnulib's mountlist module instead of grokking it ourselves.
4620 Removed all the out-of-date cruft for grokking getmntent().
4623 Added the -I and -L options; also -E takes an argument which is not optional.
4625 2004-12-05 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4627 * README, configure.in, find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c, find/tree.c:
4628 Allow debug output to be turned on or off by saying --enable-debug on the configure command line

4632 the production-readiness of Automake.
4634 * README: Qualify remarks about POSIX compliance.
4636 * NEWS, configure.in: Preparation for release 4.2.9

4641 * ChangeLog: Brought up to date.
4644 Avoid duplicate error message when we cannot chdir() into a subdirectory.
4646 * THANKS: Added recent thankees.
4649 Brought up to date with respect to the current set of fixed bugs.
4651 * NEWS, xargs/xargs.1, xargs/xargs.c:
4652 Implemented POSIX options -L, -I and -E
4654 2004-12-03 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4657 -xdev is an option, not a test. Fixes Savannah bug 11192.
4659 * find/find.1, xargs/xargs.1:
4660 Escape dashes with a backslash (for fix Savannah bug 11189).
4662 2004-11-27 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4665 More use of safely_chdir(). Also bugfix: -L should imply -noleaf. Be more careful about when xstat should fall back on lstat() when stat() fails.
4667 * find/find.1: "necessary" only has one "C".
4670 If stat() fails with ELOOP, we issue a diagnostic message.
4672 2004-11-26 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4674 * find/find.c: Removed some unused code.
4676 * Makefile.am: Don't do anything in the 'intl' subdirectory
4679 Enhanced safely_chdir() to the point where the test suite passes, and report infinite loops in the directory hierarchy
4682 belt and braces; ensure that SYMLINK_NEVER_DEREF has value zero
4685 Describe our strategy for detecting and reporting infinite loops
4687 2004-11-24 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4690 Updated the discussion of th error messages for findutils-4.2.8.
4692 * configure.in: Next version will be 4.2.9...
4695 Don't issue a warning if we notice the mounting of a filesystem that's
4696 likely just to be an automounter.
4698 * doc/find.texi, find/find.1:
4699 Explain how rounding is performed for -atime and friends.
4702 Once we collect enough arguments (for the value specified by the -n
4703 option) to do an exec(), do it immediaely instead of waiting for the
4704 next one to arrive. This fixes Savannah bug #7340.
4706 * ChangeLog, configure.in, NEWS: Prepare to release 4.2.8.
4708 * NEWS: Updates for 4.2.8.
4710 * configure.in: check for sys/types.h
4713 If wd_sanity_check() discovers that the mount table has changed, remember the updated device number and inode so that we also consider these to be valid on the way back up.
4716 Declarations of xmalloc() and friends belong in xalloc.h, not in defs.h
4718 * find/parser.c: avoid signed/unsigned warning, and #include xalloc.h
4721 Changed to alloc get_mounted_devices() to compile on Solaris
4724 Automake requires GNU m4, so point out that the reader needs that.
4726 * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/fstype.c:
4727 When wd_sanity_check() fails, enumerate the mounted devices, rather than the mounted filesystem names
4729 * NEWS: prepare for 4.2.8
4732 Look for some Solaris headers which are used by get_mounted_devices()
4734 * lib/Makefile.am: don't build savedirtypes yet
4736 * po/da.po, po/de.po, po/es.po, po/et.po, po/findutils.pot, po/fr.po, po/gl.po, po/id.po, po/it.po, po/ko.po, po/nl.po, po/pl.po, po/pt_BR.po, po/ru.po, po/sk.po, po/sv.po, po/tr.po:
4740 Avoid suprious output of the test data when the tests fail.

4745 Messages changed again
4747 * ChangeLog, configure.in: Preparing to release 4.2.7.
4749 * NEWS: Updated for release of 4.2.7.
4751 * import-gnulib.sh: Also need canonicalize module.
4754 When checking to see if a filesystem has changed state, use an
4758 No need to pause to allow James to view his handiwork, it (allegedly)
4762 Oops. Check for setlocale() to re-enable the i18n support which was
4763 accidentally disabled in 4.2.5.
4766 Check to see if the new directory is a transitioned mount point by
4767 using its ABSOLUTE name, if we can figure it out.
4770 Added guidance on some of the error messages. Not the most common
4771 ones, but the ones where the user might most benefit from some handy
4772 hints or an explanation of what is going on.
4775 Actually emit an error message if we fail to stat a symlink (for
4776 reasons other than nonexistence of the link and infinite loop).
4778 * doc/texinfo.tex: Updated texinfo.tex
4780 * NEWS, configure.in, find/find.c, find/fstype.c:
4781 Enable the 'Warning: filesystem XXX has recently been mounted' check on Solaris, which prevents it exiting fatally when traversing an automount mount point
4783 * po/da.po, po/de.po, po/es.po, po/et.po, po/findutils.pot, po/fr.po, po/gl.po, po/id.po, po/it.po, po/ko.po, po/nl.po, po/pl.po, po/pt_BR.po, po/ru.po, po/sk.po, po/sv.po, po/tr.po:
4784 messages changed again
4786 * NEWS: Implemented xargs --arg-file.
4788 * doc/find.texi, xargs/xargs.1, xargs/xargs.c, NEWS:
4789 Implemented xargs --arg-file
4792 Where a filesystem was recently (un)mounted, try togive its full name
4795 Try to avoid requesting -lsun if we don't seem to need it (e.g. on
4796 UNICOS where it is not present and trying to link against it produces
4799 * find/defs.h, lib/modetype.h: Guard against multiple inclusion
4802 We now need <mntent.h> even if we are not using getmntent() to figure
4803 out the type of a filesystem, because wd_sanity_check() needs to
4804 enumerate the system mount points.
