Guess the byte order of old-format locate databases

[findutils.git] / ChangeLog

2007-06-09  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * doc/find.texi (Security Considerations for locate): Discuss in
        detail the buffer overrun when reading old-format locate
        databases.  This is CVE reference CVE-2007-2452.

2007-06-05  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        Guess the byte-order of old-format locate databases.
        * locate/word_io.c (getword): Make the endian_state_flag parameter
        an enum rather than an int.  If we are in the initial ("don't
        know") byte-order guessing state and the swapped value is out of
        range, use this as evidence that the byte order is native.
        * locate/locatedb.h: Declare getword accordingly.
        * locate/locate.c (struct process_data): Added endian_state
        member, which remembers for us what the big/little endian order
        guessing state is when we read an old-format database.
        (visit_old_format): Use the procdata.endian_state rather than a
        local variable, so that the information can persist across calls.
        (i_am_little_endian): Locate figures out if we needed to byteswap
        the words in an old-format database, but that is an implementation
        detail.  Therefore we figure out our own byte order so that we can
        produce a more relevant message for --statistics.  The
        i_am_little_endian() returns nonzero if the current host has
        little-endian byte order.
        (search_one_database): Report the byte-order of old-format
        databases. 

2007-06-04  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * locate/testsuite/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST_XO, EXTRA_DIST_EXP):
        Added old_prefix.exp and old_prefix.xo, a new test case for long
        shared rpefixes with the old database format.

        * locate/locate.c (visit_old_format): Use getword() from word_io.c
        instead of getw(), because getw() is not in POSIX.
        * locate/word_io.c: New file, providing replacement for getw().
        * locate/locatedb.h: Declare getword()
        * locate/Makefile.am (locate_SOURCES): Added word_io.c

        * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp (locate_start): Make the
        failure messages slightly more explicit; indicate what went wrong
        when a test fails.

2007-06-03  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * locate/locate.c (visit_old_format, extend, toolong): Extend the
        buffer used to build the current pathname when reading an
        old-format database.  The new function extend is called to do
        this.  The new function toolong is called to report a fatal error
        when the buffer size would otherwise exceed SIZE_MAX.  This fixes
        Savannah bug #20014, which is a security-related problem with the
        CVE identifier CVE-2007-2452.

        * configure.in: Determine if the setgroups function is available,
        and set HAVE_SETGROUPS if so.
        * locate/locate.c (drop_privs): Call setgroups() only if 
        HAVE_SETGROUPS indicates that it is available.  This fixes
        Savannah bug #19981.

2007-05-31  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/parser.c (parse_time): Once we have determined the
        comparison type, restore the original time argument since
        get_relative_timestamp() also wants to see it.  This fixes
        Savannah bug #20005.

2007-05-31  Jakub Bogusz <qboosh@pld-linux.org>  (trivial change)

        * find/parser.c (parse_group): Correct typo in error message.
        (check_path_safety): same

2007-05-27  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * import-gnulib.config (modules): Import sys_stat.
        (gnulib_version): Update to 2007-05-26.  This fixes a compilation
        error in stdlib.h with the DEC C compiler.  This fixes Savannah
        bug# 19983.

        * find/parser.c (safe_atoi): New function, like atoi, but which
        calls error(1, ...) when the argument is invalid or out of range.
        (parse_group): Use safe_atoi.
        (insert_depthspec): Use safe_atoi
        (parse_user): Use safe_atoi

        * configure.in: Check for fabs in libm (fixing a compilation error
        on Solaris).

        * import-gnulib.config (modules): Import the wcwidth module to
        provide it on those systems (such as BeOS) which lack it.

        * find/pred.c (file_sparseness): If st_blocks is not present in
        struct stat, the file has a sparseness of 1.0.

        * doc/find.texi (Size Directives): Document the %S format
        directive for -printf.

        * find/pred.c (mode_to_filetype): Don't use S_IFSOCK on systems
        which lack that macro.  POSIX systems are allowed to lack
        sockets (it's an XSI extension).
        (file_sparseness): If struct stat lacks st_blocks, assume all
        files have a spearseness of 1.0.

        * import-gnulib.config (modules): Import fchdir inorder to fix an
        undefined-symbol error for fchdir on BeOS.

2007-05-26  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        Code refactoring in locate.
        * locate/locate.c (visit): New function, into which we factor out
        the traversal of the inspector list.
        (process_simple): Use visit().
        (process_or): Use visit().
        (process_and): Use visit().

        Speed improvements in locate for unibyte locales.
        * locate/locate.c (visit_substring_match_nocasefold_wide): Renamed
        from visit_substring_match_nocasefold.
        (visit_substring_match_casefold_wide): Renamed from
        visit_substring_match_casefold.
        (visit_substring_match_casefold_narrow): Special case of
        visit_substring_match_casefold_wide which we use for unibyte
        locales; we use strcasestr() rather than mbscasestr().
        (visit_substring_match_nocasefold_narrow): Ditto, using strstr()
        instead of mbsstr().

        * find/parser.c (parse_gid): Return an explicit boolean constant
        rather than automatically converting from a pointer, because the
        gnulib substitute for bool (or _Bool) in c89 environments lacking
        bool does not support that conversion.  One affected system is Sun
        WorkShop Compilers 5.0 98/12/15 C 5.0 on Solaris 7.  This is
        Savannah bug #19970, reported by Nelson Beebe.
        (parse_inum): Ditto.
        (parse_links): Ditto.
        (parse_uid): Ditto.
        (check_path_safety): declarations need to go before code, not
        interspersed.  Move declaration of char* s.

        * xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/rc-125.exp: Explain Savannah bug
        #19969.   This bug is not yet fixed.

        * find/defs.h: #include <stdint_.h>, for uintmax_t.  This should
        fix a compilation error on DEC C V5.9-005 on Digital UNIX V4.0F
        (Rev. 1229).  This is Savannah bug #19965, reported by Nelson
        Beebe.  

        * find/defs.h: Don't include <errno.h>, since it is not needed in
        the header file itself.  The "extern int errno;" declaration is
        now obsolete.
        * find/parser.c: Include <errno.h>
        * find/pred.c: Dito
        * find/util.c: Ditto
 
2007-05-24  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/util.c (check_nofollow): If O_NOFOLLOW is defined but 0,
        act as if it is undefined.  This should prevent a runtime
        assertion failure on IRIX 6.5.  This fixes Savannah bug #19948,
        reported by Nelson Beebe.
        
        * m4/noreturn.m4: New file, testing for support of __attribute__
        ((__noreturn__)).  Defines jy_AC_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN and sets
        HAVE_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN. 
        * configure.in: Call jy_AC_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN.
        * find/defs.h (ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN): Define to nothing if
        HAVE_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN is not set in config.h.  This should fix a
        compilation error with non-GCC compilers.   This is Savannah bug
        #19967, reported by Nelson Beebe.
        
        * configure.in (FINDLIBS): Update FINDLIBS to link against -lm for
        modf.   This fixed a link error on HP-UX.   This fixes Savannah
        bug #19966, reported by Nelson Beebe.
        * find/Makefile.am (LDADD): Use @FINDLIBS@

2007-05-21  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * build-aux/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Added man-lint.sh.

        * locate/locate.c (drop_privs): pass the correct list of groups to
        setgroups().  Previously, if root invoked locate, their group ID
        would have been set to a random value.  The same bug also caused
        an array overrun past the end of the local array groups[].  The
        variable which gets overwritten by the buffer overrun on x86 is
        'what'.  The value of that variable is always changed before it is
        used, and so I believe that this buffer overrun will not cause a
        crash.  The only effect of the bug therefore would be for locate
        to change group to a random group ID since groups[0] is
        uninitialised.  On my test system this random group ID is 0
        anyway.  The effect does not depend on any externally-controllable
        information, so it is unlikely this is exploitable.   This bug is
        detailed as bug# 19923.

2007-05-19  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.1: Spurious .R directives (.R is not a directive)
        should be .B.   This fixes Savannah bug #19871.
        * build-aux/man-lint.sh: New file; verifies that the specified
        manual pages do not provoke error messages from troff.  This is
        used to detect further occurrences of Savannah bug #19871.
        * find/Makefile.am (dist-hook): Run findutils-check-manpages,
        which invokes man-lint.sh.
        * locate/Makefile.am (dist-hook): ditto
        * xargs/Makefile.am (dist-hook): ditto

        * .cvsignore: Ignore ylwrap, which automake-1.10 wants us to have
        a copy of for some reason

        * import-gnulib.sh (main): New option -a which just runs the
        autotools without reimporting gnulib.

        * Makefile.am (jy-regex-fix): The previous explanatory comment
        refers to the jy-regex-fix target, not to dist-hook, so it has
        been moved.

2007-05-08  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/defs.h (struct predicate.args): str is now const.

        * find/parser.c (get_comp_type): get_comp_type now takes a const
        char* parameter.
        (get_num): ditto
        (get_relative_timestamp): ditto.  Also use collect_arg().
        (collect_arg_stat_info): New function; collects a command-line
        argument and returns its xstat information, in one go.
        error(1,...)  is called if the stat fails.
        (parse_anewer): Use collect_arg().
        (parse_cnewer): ditto
        (parse_fprint): ditto
        (parse_fstype): ditto
        (parse_group): ditto
        (parse_ilname): ditto
        (parse_iname): ditto
        (parse_iwholename): ditto

        (parse_name): ditto
        (parse_newer): ditto
        (parse_wholename): ditto
        (parse_perm): ditto
        (parse_regextype): ditto
        (insert_regex): ditto
        (parse_samefile): ditto
        (parse_used): ditto
        (parse_user): ditto
        (insert_type): ditto
        (parse_time): ditto
        (parse_size): When the size argument is invalid but consists only
        of a valid suffix char, avoid issuing an error message about a
        blank argument.  Append the suffix letter again.
        (parse_xdev, parse_ignore_race, parse_noignore_race, parse_warn,
        parse_xtype): Remove casts to void for some function parameters
        that were, in fact, used.

2007-05-06  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/tree.c: (costlookup): Added pred_fls to the optimiser's
        predicate cost lookup table.

        * lib/printquoted.c (print_quoted): Change return value from void
        to int, to allow the caller to detect failures.
        * lib/printquoted.h (print_quoted): Change declaration
        accordingly.  

        * find/defs.h (struct format_val): Incldue a 'filename' member so
        that we can provide more useful error messages (e.g. when we fail
        to flush or close an output file).
        (nonfatal_file_error): declare new function.

        * find/util.c (traverse_tree): Utility function which calls a
        callback on every node of the parse tree.
        (flush_and_close_output_files): Flush all output streams.  Close
        all output files.  Report any errors.
        (cleanup): Use traverse_tree() to invoke
        complete_pending_execdirs().
        (report_file_err): refactored error reporting function, extracted
        from fatal_file_error.
        (nonfatal_file_error): New function.

        * find/pred.c (checked_fprintf): New function, which performa an
        fprinf(), and checkes the result.  If the operation resulted in an
        error, a nonfatal error message is issued.
        (checked_print_quoted): Ditto, for print_quoted rather than
        fprintf.
        (checked_fwrite): Ditto for fwrite instead of fprintf.
        (checked_fflush): Ditto for fflush
        (do_fprintf): Use the checked_*() functions rather than their
        direct counterparts, to ensure that I/O errors are detected.  This
        fixes Savannah bug #19416.
        (pred_fls): Use args.printf_vec instead of args.stream, which has
        now been removed. 
        (pred_ls): just call pred_fls.
        (pred_fprint0): use args.printf_vec, instead of the now removed
        args.stream.
        (pred_print0): just call pred_fprint0

        * find/parser.c: (insert_fprintf): Make the caller collect the
        format argument from the argument list.
        (open_output_file): Enhance to set up defaults in
        our_pred->args.printf_vec as well as opening the output file.
        Also record the filename for possible later use in an error
        message. 
        (collect_arg): Convenience function for collecting an argument
        from the argument list.
        (insert_fls): Refactored the body of parse_fls out so that
        parse_ls can use it.
        (parse_fls): call insert_fls.
        (parse_ls): ditto
        (parse_fprint): Instead of setting up our_pred->args.printf_vec
        manually, call open_output_file() to do it.
        (parse_print): Same, but by calling open_stdout().
        (insert_fprint): Make the caller collect the filename argument,
        and delegate the setup of our_pred->args.printf_vec to either
        open_output_file() (for parse_fprint and parse_fprint0) or
        open_stdout (parse_print0).
        (parse_fprint0): Use collect_arg().
        (parse_print0): Use insert_fprint(), just like parse_fprint0.
        (parse_printf): Use collect_arg().
        (parse_fprintf): Use collect_arg().

2007-05-05  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/parser.c (parse_samefile): Hold a file descriptor open on
        the reference file in order to prevent pred_samefile getting
        fooled by inode reuse.  Pay attention to race conditions on
        systems lacking O_NOFOLLOW when the -P option is in force.  This
        fixes Savannah bug #19806.

        * find/defs.h (struct samefile_file_id): New struct, like dir_id
        but including a file descriptor on the reference file.

        * find/pred.c (pred_type): -type should return false if the file
        has mode 00000, as opposed to having an assertion failure.   This 
        fixes Savannah bug #16378.

        * find/ftsfind.c (consider_visiting): Issue a warning message if
        none of the mode bits are set for a file (i.e. st_mode==00000).
        * find/util.c (get_statinfo): ditto
        * find/util.c (hook_fstatat): Introduced debug code (normally
        disabled) for testing Savannah bug #16378.
        
2007-05-01  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.c (wd_sanity_check): corrected the type of %ld fprintf
        arguments in error messages.  
        * find/fstype.c: include "error.h" for the declaratio of error().
        * find/ftsfind.c: include "error.h" for the declaratio of
        error().  Include dircallback.h for the correct declararion of
        run_in_dir(). 
        * find/parser.c: include getdate.h (for declaration of getdate)
        and error.h (for the declaration of error).
        (find_parser): Removed unused variable p.
        * find/pred.c (pred_timewindow): Removed unused variable delta.
        (do_fprintf): Removed unused variable cc.
        * find/tree.c: Include error.h (for the declaration of error()).
        (build_expression_tree): removed sourious extra arguments in call
        to error().
        * find/util.c: include error.h.  
        * lib/buildcmd.h (get_line_max): Comment out unused function.
        * lib/listfile.c: Include dircallback.h.
        * locate/code.c: Include errno.h, erorr.h, progname.h and
        xlloc.h. 
        (inerr): New function for reporting read errors.
        (outerr): New function for reporting output errors.
        (main): Call inerror when fgets fails.  Call outerr when fwrite
        or putc or putw fails.  
        * locate/frcode.c (put_short): Return boolean value indicating
        success.  
        (outerr): New function for reporting write errors.
        (main): Call outerr if call to putc() or puts() or put_short()
        fails.    
        * locate/locate.c (search_one_database): diagnose corruption if a
        traditional-style database is too short to include a complete
        bigram table.

2007-04-30  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/defs.h: Change all predicate functions to take a const
        char* argument as the pathname, not a char*.  Modify the parser
        table definition accordingly.
        * find/parser.c: Ditto
        * find/pred.c: Ditto
        * find/pred.c (do_fprintf): copy the pathname string for the %H
        and %h cases, since we can no longer modify the string in place.
        * lib/listfile.c (print_name, list_file,
        print_name_without_quoting, print_name_with_quoting): Use const
        char * param for pathname.
        * lib/listfile.h (list_file): Use const char * param for
        pathname. 

2007-04-29  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>
        
        * find/defs.h: Declare fatal_file_error(), a function for
        reporting immediately-fatal file errors, which appropriately
        quotes the file name.  The function does not return.  Also define
        ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN.  Record the currently-required quoting style
        in struct options.

        * find/find.c, find/ftsfind.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c,
        find/util.c: Call fatal_file_error() for fatal file errors.  Use
        quotearg_n_style() to quote filenames which are used in error
        message that aren't fatal.  Use options.err_quoting_style as the
        quoting style.  This fixes Savannah bug #18203.
        * locate/locate.c: ditto
        * xargs/xargs.c: ditto

        * lib/listfile.c: To use alloca, just #include <alloca.h>.  Gnulib
        handles the rest.  Also these days, <stdlib.h> and <string.h> can
        just be included unconditionally.
        * lib/qmark.c: Fixed comment on first line describing the module.  

2007-04-29  Michael Haubenwallner <michael.haubenwallner@salomon.at> (Trivial Change)

        * find/defs.h (pred_open) Rename to pred_openparen to avoid
        problems with the macrtos which build the parser tabnles on
        platforms where 'open' is in fact a macro whcih expands to
        open64.   The problem was that token pasting put pred_open64 into
        the parser table, but the function was still defined as
        parse_open.   This fixes Savannah bug #19371.
        (pred_close): ditto
        * find/parser.c (parse_open, parse_close): ditto.  Also change
        repferences to pred_open and pred_close similarly.
        * find/parser.c (parse_openparen, parse_closeparen): ditto

2007-04-28  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/deletedir.exp,
        find/testsuite/find.gnu/deletedir.xo: New test.
        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/deletefile.exp,
        find/testsuite/find.gnu/deletefile.xo: New test.
        * find/testsuite/Makefile.am: Distribute the new tests
        deletefile.exp and deletedir,exp, with their expected-output (.xo)
        files too.
        * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp (find_start): Add a new "setup"
        parameter called just before each time find is invoked.  This
        allows last-minute tasks to be performed.  This feature is
        essential for find commands that modify the filesystem, since
        otherwise we cannot use our strategy of invoking both binaries at
        each optimisation level.
        
        * find/util.c (optionh_stat, optionp_stat, optionl_stat): Assert
        that state.cwd_dir_fd is valid.

        * find/parser.c (parse_delete): Set need_stat to false, since we
        don't need the stat information in pred_delete.
        * find/pred.c (pred_delete): If unlinkat() with a zero flags
        parameter fails with errno==EISDIR, just try again with
        flags=AT_REMOVEDIR.  That way we normally avoid the cost of a
        stat.  If we happen to have the stat information to hand anyway,
        we make sure we get it right the first time.

        * lib/buildcmd.c (bc_init_controlinfo): Eliminate confusing extra
        variable arg_max.  Add return value
        BC_INIT_CANNOT_ACCOMODATE_HEADROOM for the case where the
        environment itself is not too large, but the required headroom
        cannot also be accomodated.  The caller now passes in the amount
        of headroom required.  
        (bc_use_sensible_arg_max): Use the environment size consistently;
        this is accounted for already in posix_arg_size_max, so there is
        no need to re-measure the size of the environment.
        * lib/buildcmd.h: Define BC_INIT_CANNOT_ACCOMODATE_HEADROOM and
        add the headroom parameter to the prototype of bc_init_controlinfo().
        * xargs/xargs.c (main): Define XARGS_POSIX_HEADROOM as 2048 and
        use that symbolic value.  Pass XARGS_POSIX_HEADROOM to
        bc_init_controlinfo().  Handle the case where
        BC_INIT_CANNOT_ACCOMODATE_HEADROOM is returned by
        bc_init_controlinfo().  
        * find/parser.c (new_insert_exec_ok): Pass the required headroom to
        bc_init_controlinfo() and handle the error return
        BC_INIT_CANNOT_ACCOMODATE_HEADROOM.  

        * xargs/xargs.1: Correct the description of the default value and
        maximum value for the -s option of xargs.

        * xargs/xargs.c (main): Modify the assertions not to assume that
        bc_ctl.arg_max is 2KiB less than ARG_MAX, since sysconfig() may
        have returned a value for _SC_ARG_MAX which is greater.  For
        example, AIX 5.3 can do this.  This should fix Savannah bug
        #19391. 

2007-04-25  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/tree.c (predlist_dump, predlist_merge_nosort): These
        functions were unused and commented out.  Removed.
        (mark_stat) No longer used.  Removed.
        (mark_type) No longer used.  Removed.
        
        * find/parser.c (new_insert_exec_ok): When checking for {} in the
        arguments to -exec..., use mbsstr() rather than strstr() in order
        to cope bettwe with multibyte locales.

        * lib/buildcmd.c: Don't define mbsstr() locally.  Instead, call
        gnulib's mbsstr().

2007-04-24  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * lib/buildcmd.c: Added some comments outlining how we might
        change the implementation to support figuring out the real ARG_MAX
        limit.

2007-04-23  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/defs.h (struct predicate_performance_info): New data
        structure for holding perofmance statistics.
        (struct predicate: include predicate_performance_info
        (apply_predicate): change from macro to function
        (pred_is): new macro, for predicate identity testing
        (enum DebugOption): Added DebugSuccessRates
        * find/find.1: Document option "-D rates" which turns on 
        DebugSuccessRates. 
        * doc/find.texi: ditto
        * find.c (main): Call show_success_rates() before exiting.
        (apply_predicate): remove the macro defintion, declare equivalent
        function in defs.h.
        * find/ftsfind.c (main): Call show_success_rates() before
        exiting.  Use apply_predicate().
        (show_outstanding_execdirs): use pred_is().

        

2007-04-22  Eric Blake  <ebb9@byu.net>

        * xargs/xargs.c (main): Don't assume LINE_MAX exists (i.e. is
        #defined).

        * locate/updatedb.sh (PRUNEPATHS): Exclude /proc by default.

2007-04-22  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * doc/Makefile.am: When cross-compiling, 'make clean' should not
        delete doc/regexprops.texi, becaue we can't regenerate it.  Fixes
        Savannah bug #19658.

        * locate/Makefile.am (BUILT_SOURCES): Automatically generate
        dblocation.texi, which records the default database location.
        * doc/find.texi: Collect the default database location from
        ../locate/dblocation.texi, and use LOCATE_DB in various places.
        Document the fact that updatedb can generate slocate-compatible
        databases.  Document the --dbformat option of updatedb.
        * locate/frcode.c (main): Implemented the -S option which allows the
        generation of an slocate secure database.  
        * locate/updatedb.sh: New option --dbformat which selects which
        database format to use.   
        * locate/updatedb.1 (--dbformat): Document the new option.
        

        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/access.exp: fixed a typo which prevented
        the test correctly being skipped when run as root.   This re-fixes
        Savannah bug# 18414, I hope.

2007-04-21  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/locate/locatedb.5: Clarifications to the description of the
        LOCATE02 format.  Organised the material under a number of
        headings.  Documented the slocate database format.

2007-04-21  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/testuite/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST_EXP): added
        find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-19617.exp

2007-04-20  Maxim V. Dziumanenko <dziumanenko@gmail.com>

        * po/uk.po: New Ukranian translation.
        * configure.in: Added "uk" for Ukranian.

2007-04-19  Peter Breitenlohner <peb@mppmu.mpg.de> (Trivial change)

        * locate/bigram.c (main): Set the initial pathname to the empty
        string, to avoid decompression problems if the initial pathname
        begins with a space.  This fixes Savannah bug #19484.
        * locate/code.c (main): ditto

2007-04-19  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * locate/updatedb.1 (--help): Option name should be bold, not
        italic.

        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-hier.exp: Avoid running 
        -execdir based tests if "." is on $PATH.  Fixes Savannah bug
        #19634.
        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-in-unreadable.exp: ditto

        * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp (touch): New procedure touch,
        replacing "exec touch" for greater efficiency.
        * find/testsuite/find.posix/depth1.exp: Change "exec touch" to
        "touch".
        * find/testsuite/find.posix/files-not-expressions1.exp: ditto
        * find/testsuite/find.posix/files-not-expressions2.exp: ditto
        * find/testsuite/find.posix/files-not-expressions3.exp: ditto
        * find/testsuite/find.posix/links.exp: ditto
        * find/testsuite/find.posix/perm-vanilla.exp: ditto
        * find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-15235.exp: ditto
        * /find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-19613.exp: ditto
        
        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/access.exp: Fix savannah bug #18414 by
        skipping the test if the user can read any file (e.g. is root or
        is an Admin user under Cygwin).
        
2007-04-17  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * import-gnulib.config (gnulib_version): Use the 2007-04-17
        version of gnulib to fix a compilation error on Cygwin.  This
        fixes Savannah bug #19619.
        
        * find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-19605.exp: New test, for
        Savannah bug #19605.
        * find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-19617.exp: New test, for
        Savannah bug #19617.
        * find/ftsfind.c (consider_visiting): if fts_read() returns
        enf->fts_info==FTS_NS, check for and diagnose a symbolic link
        loop.  This fixes Savannah bugs #19605 and #19617.

        * find/find.c (process_path): collect the stat information for
        directories even if we already have the mode information, because
        we need to use the members st_nlink and st_rdev in for the leaf
        optimisation and loop detection, respectively.  This fixes
        Savannah bug #19616.

        * find/ftsfind.c (is_fts_enabled): Return a copy of ftsoptions,
        not a copy of the (uninitialised) input argument.  This fixes
        Savannah bug #19615.

        * find/ftsfind.c (consider_visiting): If fts_read() returned
        FTS_NS, then remember that the stat information is not valid, and
        therefore don't set state.have_type or state.have_stat.  This
        fixes Savannah bug #19613.

        * find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-91613.exp, 
        * find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-91613.xo: New test for Savannah
        bug 19613 (assertion failure on symbolic link loop).

        * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp: Correctly diagnose a test case
        which fails because find was expected to fail and instead
        succeeded.
        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-many-rtn-failure.exp: The child
        process in this test should return non-zero, not zero.  Therefore
        run "false" instead of "true".
        
2007-04-15  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.1: "-printf %b": blocks are 512 bytes.   Fixes
        Savannah bug #19596.

        * doc/Makefile.am (regexprops.texi): Do not use $(RM) because many
        versions od make do not set it, and so it expands to nothing.
        This avoids suprious emission of the regexprops.texi file to stdout.

        * find/find.c (main, safely_chdir_lstat, safely_chdir_nofollow):
        Only use O_LARGEFILE if it is #defined (NetBSD-3.1 does not define
        it).  
        * find/ftsfind.c (main): ditto
        * find/pred.c (pred_empty, prep_child_for_exec): ditto


        * import-gnulib.config: Update to gnuliv 2007-04-14.

        * lib/Makefile.am, import-gnulib.sh: Create lib/gnulib-version.c
        in import-gnulib.sh, not in lib/Makefile.

        * build-aux/Makefile.am: New file; distribute check-tstfiles.sh.

        * locate/Makefile.am: mkinstalldirs is now in build-aux.

        * doc/Makefile.am: We also need getdate.texi.

2007-04-14  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * doc/.cvsignore: Ignore getdate.texi

        * find/defs.h: #include "buildcmd.h" near the top of the file, not
        in the middle.

        * all: Pass O_LARGEFILE when opening directories.

        * all: Changes to allow us to use the FTS_CWDFD mode of fts().
        These are quite extensive changes, and are detailed below.

        * find/defs.h (struct exec_val): New member dirfd, the directory
        in which the exec should take place.
        (is_fts_enabled): Tell the caller which flags are passed to
        fts_open().
        (get_start_dirfd): New function.  Returns value of start_desc.
        (get_current_dirfd): New function.  Returns the fd of the
        directory fts is currently traversing.  If this is the current
        directory, AT_FDCWD is returned.
        (complete_pending_execdirs): takes a new argument, indicating
        where the exec is to take place.  Ugh.
        (get_info): the file name is taken from state.rel_pathname, so
        we don't need it as a function argument.
        (enum DebugOption): Added DebugExec ("-D exec").
        (struct state): Added cwd_dir_fd, the directory we are examining
        with fts().  If fts() is not in use, this is AT_FDCWD.  Also added
        execdirs_outstanding, which is a boolean which tells us if there
        are any not-yet-execed -execdir or -okdir actions (with +).  This
        is not really used yet.
        * find/ftsfind.c (set_close_on_exec): New function.
        (get_current_dirfd): Return an fd open on the directory that fts()
        is currently examining.
        (left_dir): Signal that our previous ides of which dirctory fts is
        searching is now out of date.
        (inside_dir): Indicate which directory fts is now searching.
        (complete_execdirs_cb): Callback for run_in_dir() to complete
        pending execdirs in this directory.
        (show_outstanding_execdirs): Supports "-D exec"
        consider_visiting(): Do not allow building-up of pending execdirs,
        as a workaround to Savannah bug #18466.
        (ftsoptions): Make this a static module variable.
        * find/parser.c (insert_exec_ok): New parameter describing which
        directory the exec should occur in.
        (parse_version): for FTS, add a list of options being used.
        * find/pred.c (pred_and, pred_comma): No need to pass the relative
        path name to get_info(), it can pull it from state.rel_pathname.
        (pred_delete): use unlinkat().
        (pred_empty): use openat().
        (new_impl_pred_exec): Accept an fd parameter describing where the
        exec is to take place.
        (pred_executable, pred_writable, pred_readable): Use run_in_dir()
        to ensure that access() is called in a working directory which is
        suitable for the pathname we pass in.
        (prep_child_for_exec): In the child process, change to the
        appropriate directory becore the exec().
        * find/util.c (debugassoc): Support "-D exec".
        (get_info): No longer need to pass the relative path to
        get_statinfo().
        (do_complete_pending_execdirs): Refactored body of what used to be
        complete_pending_execdirs().
        (complete_pending_execdirs): Pull body out into
        do_complete_pending_execdirs() and call that only if there is work
        to do.
        (fallback_stat, optionh_stat, optionp_stat, optionl_stat): Use fstatat().
        (get_start_dirfd): New access function for starting_desc.
        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-hier.exp: New test
        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-hier.xo: Expected outut for new test
        * lib/dircallback.c, lib/dircallback.h: New function,
        run_in_dir(), which runs a callback function in a specified
        directory.      
        * lib/listfile.c: Use run_in_dir() to call readlink() in the right
        directory.
        (get_link_name_at): Call get_link_name_cb via run_in_dir.
        (get_link_name_cb): New callback function, wrappting
        get_link_name().
        
        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-pwd.exp: Since we have disabled
        thebuilding-up of command lines for -execdir, Savannah bug #18466
        has been neutralised (but not fixed - we just don't allow the
        problem circumstance to occur).
        
2007-04-09  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * doc/find.texi: Change fully-specified @node directives to
        single-argument @node directives in order to accomodate the
        inclusion of getdate.texi.

        * doc/find.texi: Document -newerXY.

        * doc/find.texi (Security Considerations): updated to describe
        differences in the fts-based implementation.

        * find/find.1: Indicate that testing the birth time where this is
        not supported produces a negative result for files where the birth
        time is not known (or a fatal error if the file of interest is a
        reference file).
        
2007-04-08  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * configure.in: Set @AUXDIR@ (to the location of the build-aux
        directory).
        * build-aux/check-testfiles.sh: New script, which checks that all
        the DejaGnu test files have been included in the distribution and
        (more helpfully) lists any that are missing.
        * Makefile.am (findutils-check-testfiles): Use
        build-aux/check-testfiles.sh.
        * locate/testsuite/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST_EXP): distribute 
        locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/sv-bug-14535.exp. 

        * config.rpath, depcomp, missing: Moved into build-aux/.
        * configure.in(AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Find aux files in $SRCDIR/build-aux,
        not in $SRCDIR.

2007-03-31  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/tree.c (build_expression_tree): Issue more specific error
        messages; distinguish the case where the predicate is invalid from
        the cases where a required argument is missing, and a supplied
        argument is invalid.

        * import-gnulib.config (gnulib_version): Update to 2007-03-30
        version of gnulib.

2007-03-28  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/defs.h (set_stat_placeholders): utility function for
        initialising the sturct stat fields that NetBSD doesn't always set
        (like st_birthtime where the file is on a filesystem not
        supporting birthtime).
        * find/util.c: set_stat_placeholders(): new function
        (get_statinfo): Call set_stat_placeholders().
        (optionh_stat, optionl_stat, optionp_stat): ditto
        * find/find.c (main, wd_sanity_check, safely_chdir_lstat,
        process_dir): use set_stat_placeholders().
        * find/parser.c (parse_anewer, parse_cnewer, parse_newer,
        parse_newerXY): ditto.
        (get_stat_Ytime): Support birth time ('B').
        (parse_newerXY): Support st_birthtime.
        * find/fstype.c (set_fstype_devno): Use set_stat_placeholders().
        * find/pred.c (pred_xtype): Use set_stat_placeholders().
        (pred_newerXY): Support birth time.
        (pred_fprintf, format_date): ditto ("%Bx").

2007-03-25  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * xargs/xargs.c (main): For "xargs --show-limits" where stdin is a
        terminal, warn the user that the program specified (or /bin/echo)
        will be run at least once, if that is what will happen.

2007-03-24  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * import-gnulib.sh: Added option -d, allowing the user to use a
        local version of gnulib, perhaps because they have local changes.
        
2007-03-13  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/parser.c (parse_quit): Estimated success rate of -quit is
        100%.

2007-03-08  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.1 (TESTS): Document -newerXY, indicate that reference
        files are only examined once.
        (HISTORY): Indicate when various features were added
        (BUGS): Indicate that -ok ignores LC_COLLATE.

2007-03-07  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * import-gnulib.config: (gnulib_version): Use gnulib version
        2007-03-05
        (modules): Added getdate

        * find/Makefile.am (LDADD): Added @LIB_CLOCK_GETTIME@ for
        clock_gettime(), if it is available.

        * find/defs.h: (enum xval): New enumeration, representing the
        value of X used in the -newerXY test.  It is stored in the reftime
        member of 'union args'.
        (struct predicate): reftime is also used by -newerXY.
        (enum arg_type): Added ARG_SPECIAL_PARSE for -newerXY, because the
        parsing function needs to look at the name of the test.
        (struct options): start_time is now a struct timespec, not a
        time_t. 

        * find/parser.c: (parse_newerXY): New parsing function for
        -newerXY, a feature copied from FreeBSD (also present other BSD
        implementations too)
        (get_stat_Ytime): New function; returns st_atime, st_mtime or
        st_ctime from struct stat, as a timespec, as required according to
        the value of Y in -newerXY.
        (found_parser): Factored the tail out of find_parser.
        (find_parser): Moved tail into found_parser.  Add special handling
        for -newerXY.
        (do_parse_xmin): New argument xv, indicating the value to which
        predicate->reftime.xval should be set.
        (parse_amin): Pass XVAL_ATIME to do_parse_xmin.
        (parse_cmin): Pass XVAL_CTIME to do_parse_xmin.
        (parse_mmin): Pass XVAL_MTIME to do_parse_xmin.
        (parse_newer): Set args.reftime.xval to XVAL_MTIME.
        
        * find/pred.c (pred_table): added pred_XY.
        (pred_fls): options.start_time is now a struct timespec, so just
        pass the tv_sec member to list_file.
        (pred_ls): ditto
        (pred_newerXY): New function, implementing -newerXY.

        * find/tree.c (costlookup): pred_newerXY needs stat information.
        (build_expression_tree): For predicates of type ARG_SPECIAL_PARSE,
        pass them in the name of the predicate (that is, don't advance
        argc).

        * find/util.c (now): New function for setting options.start_time.
        Use nanoseconds where it is available.
        (set_option_defaults): Use now() rather than time().

2007-03-03  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * import-gnulib.sh: Pass --with-tests to gnulib-tool so that relevant
        gnulib unit tests are built and are run for "make check".  

        * configure.in (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Add tests/Makefile (the makefile
        for the gnulib unit tests).

        * Makefile.am: Add 'tests' to SUBDIRS.

        * .cvsignore: Add 'tests'.
        
        * import-gnulib.config (modules): Also use Gnulib modules
        mbscasestr and mbsstr in order to perform correct string searching
        in multibyte strings, in order to fix Savannah bug #14535.

        * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/sv-bug-14535.exp: new test case for
        Savannah bug #14535.
        
        * locale/locate.c (visit_substring_match_nocasefold): Use mbsstr
        rather than strstr, in order to correctly support multibyte
        strings.  
        (visit_substring_match_casefold): Use mbscasestr rather than
        strstr in order to correctly support case-folding in a multibyte
        environment (e.g. with UTF-8 characters outside the normal ASCII
        range).  This fixes Savannah bug #14535.
        (struct casefolder): No longer needed, removed
        (visit_casefold): No longer needed, removed.
        (lc_strcpy): No longer needed, removed.
        (search_one_database): Removed redundant variable need_fold and
        the code which used to set it.  It had controlled the adding of
        the visitor function visit_casefold, but that function itself is
        no longer required.  Also there is now no need to pass in a
        lower-case argument to visit_substring_match_casefold, so don't
        pass that in the context argument.

        * locate/locate.c (usage): Fixed typo.
        
2007-03-01  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * doc/find.texi (Multiple Files): Document the construct
        -exec sh -c 'cmd "$@" final-args' {} + - fixing Savannah bug
        #18554.
        
2007-02-28  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * import-gnulib.config: New file.  Specifies which version of
        Gnulib we need to check out and build from.
        
        * import-gnulib.sh: Use import-gnulib.config.
        
        * README-CVS: Describe the new method of building from CVS.
        
        * lib/gnulib-version.h, lib/gnulib-version.sh: New files; code for
        reporting which version of Gnulib we built findutils from.
        
        * lib/Makefile.am: Build gnulib-version.c out of
        ./gnulib-version.config by using lib/gnulib-version.sh.
        
        * Makefile.am: Ship import-gnulib.config and import-gnulib.sh.
        
        * .cvsignore: Ignore gnulib-cvs
        
        * lib/.cvsignore: Ignore gnulib-version.c
        
        * find/parser.c, locate/code.c, locate/locate.c, xargs/xargs.c:
        Report which version of Gnulib we were built from.

2007-02-25  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.c (process_dir): Removed duplicated (shadow)
        declaration of did_stat.  Assert that we did not use subdirs_left
        if subdirs_unreliable is true.

        * find/parser.c (parse_size): Removed unused variable rate.
        (parse_time): Removed unused variable num_days_approx.
        (get_num): Removed unused variables ok and suffixes.

        * find/pred.c (do_fprintf): Indicate that the function needs a
        return value (referring to Savannah bug #19146).

        * find/tree.c (predlist_dump): Commented out unused function
        (predlist_merge_nosort): Commented out unused function
        (getrate): Returns type is float, so return 1.0f not 1.0.
        (calculate_derived_rates): Removed unused variable rate.  Use a
        switch statement rater than ifs.

        * find/util.c (usage): Removed unused variable i.

        * lib/buildcmd.c (bc_do_insert): Removed unused variable
        need_prefix.
        (bc_init_controlinfo): annotate a line (with #warning) which is
        probably a bug.

        * locate/locate.c: #include <grp.h> for the benefit of the
        setgroups() call in drop_privs.
        (slocate_db_pathname): Commented out unused variable.
        (set_max_db_age): error command has no format directive, so
        remove the unused extra argument.
        (looking_at_slocate_db): Removed unused variables magic and
        lenwanted.  Fix bug where result is indeterminate (due to falling
        off the end of the function) if the first character is a nondigit.
        (search_one_database): Eliminate (spurious) compiler warning
        rlating to possible use before initialisation of slocate_seclevel.

        * xargs/xargs.c (get_char_oct_or_hex_escape): Eliminate spurious
        compiler warning on variable p.
        (main): Removed unused varible env_too_big


2007-02-24  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/parser.c (pred_sanity_check): define this function even for
        _NDEBUG, but do nothing in that case.
        (estimate_timestamp_success_rate): correct (invert) the sense of
        the subtraction used to find the file's age.

        * import-gnulib.sh (findutils_modules): Import Gnulib modules
        xstrtod and timespec.

        * find/parser.c (get_comp_type): Refactored out of get_num.
        (get_num): call get_comp_type to find the comparison type.
        (get_relative_timestamp): new function replacing get_num_days.
        (get_num_days): Remove.
        (do_parse_xmin): Support fractional arguments and
        nanosecond timestamps.
        (parse_used): ditto
        (parse_time): ditto

        * xargs/xargs.c (read_line): Give a warning message if a NUL is
        found in the input (this function is called only when -0 is not in
        effect).

        * xargs/xargs.c (nullwarning_given): New variable indicating if
        the NULL character warning had already been issued.

        * doc/find.texi (Multiple Files): Describe how trailing blanks are
        handled when -L is in effect.
        
        * xargs/xargs.c (read_line): Use an enum rather than
        preprocessor macro values for the lexer state.

        * lib/savedirinfo.c (free_dirinfo): Fixed memory leak (trivial
        patch from Supriya Kannery)

2007-01-22  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * .cvsignore (install-sh): Ignore, since the install-sh file is no
        longer held in the findutils CVS repository.
        
        * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp (find_start): allow a test to be
        skipped for either the old or the new find executable.
        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-pwd.exp,
        find/testsuite/Makefile.am: 
        New test, covering Savannah bug #18466.  This test currently fails 
        for the ftsfind binary and passes for the oldfind binary.  Due to 
        a limitation in  the way that we perform the test, we can't tell
        the test suite to expect a failure in the new binary but not the
        old.  Therefore we skip the test for the old binary. 

        * lib/regeprops.c (describe_regex_syntax): fixed a typo in the text
        * doc/find.texi (Multiple Files): fixed a typo

2007-01-16  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        (ctime_format): format the time manually (rather than using ctime)
        in order to include the sub-second part of the time.
        (weekdays, months): new static variables used by ctime_format.
        (format_date): append a the sub-second part of the timestamp to
        the seconds part of date/time output.
        
2007-01-15  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/defs.h (time_val): define struct; use timespec to hold time
        in the 'reftime' member.
        (args): use struct timespec instead of time_t for predicates
        -newer, -anewer, -cnewer.  * find/parser.c (includes): include
        stat-time.h.
        (parse_anewer, parse_cnewer, parse_newer): use struct timespec to
        hold timestamps.  * find/pred.c (compare_ts): new function for
        comparing timestamps in struct timespec.
        (pred_anewer, pred_cnewer, pred_newer): use compare_ts() to
        compare timestamps (hence takinng acoung of sub-second
        granularity).
        * find/ftsfind.c: Various improvements to comments.
        (is_fts_enabled): Newline before function name to comply with GNU
        coding standard.

2007-01-13  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * lib/regexprops.c (describe_regex_syntax): fixed typo
        
        * xargs/xargs.c (read_line): Fixed Savannah bug# 18714; VT and FF
        are not separators, according to POSIX (in the POSIX locale).

        * xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am,
          xargs/testsuite/input/formfeeds.xi, 
          xargs/testsuite/input/verticaltabs.xi, 
          xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/sv-bug-18714.exp, 
          xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/sv-bug-18714.xo, 
          xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/sv-bug-18714b.exp, 
          xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/sv-bug-18714b.xo: Tests for Savannah
          bug #18714.

        * xargs/xargs.c (usage): Removed suprious "[" in --help output
        (fixes Savannah bug #18384).

        * locate/locate.c: Implement the option --max-database-age.
        (main) Accept the option. 
        (set_max_db_age): Parse the argument.

        * locate/locate.c (dolocate): If the database is more than N days
        old, indicate its actual age in the warning message we produce.

        * locate/locate.1, docs/find.texi: Document --max-database-age

        * THANKS: Thank Dean Gaudet for the idea of -sparse.

        * po/findutils.pot: Updated from Translation Project

        * po/ga.po, po/pl.po, po/nl.po, po/tr.po, po/hu.po: Updated from
        the Translation Project

2007-01-09  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de> 

        * doc/find.texi: Fix some typos. (trivial change)

2007-01-07  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/parser.c (parse_perm), find/testsuite/find.gnu/perm000.exp,
          find/testsuite/find.gnu/perm000.xo: -perm /000 is now quivalent
          to -perm -000, as dscussed in Savannah bug #14748.  The warning
          message we issue when the user does this now explains that the
          defintion changed as we promised it would in 2005.

        * xargs/xargs.c (read_line): Correctly handle quoted empty
        arguments occurring first or last on a line (by adding an empty
        argument to the output).  Fixes Savannah bug #18713.

        * xargs/testsuite/xargs.sysv/sv-bug-18713.exp,
        xargs/testsuite/xargs.sysv/sv-bug-18713.xo,
        xargs/testsuite/input/empty.xi: Test case for Savannah bug #18713.
         

2006-12-29  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
        Verify that find_start is invoked with wither a p (pass) or an f
        (fail) argument.

        * lib/listfile.c, lib/listfile.h:
        define find_blocksize() and provide a declaration for get_link_name()

        * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp: Updated copyright years.

        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-one.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-root-only.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/sv-bug-12230.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/sv-bug-17782.exp, find/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
        Avoid tests using -execdir if $PATH contains a relative directory

        * find/parser.c:
        Also flag $PATH values containing relative directories as being dangerous.

        * find/parser.c, find/defs.h, find/util.c:
        Instead of selecting the old or new exec handling code with the NEW_EXEC macro, just use the new code all the time

        * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
        Fixed Savannah bug #13252, test suite failure caused by the fact that 'file normalize' is not available in Tcl 8.3

        * NEWS, find/pred.c:
        Fixed Savannah bug #18433, compilation failure with configure --enable-debug

2006-12-28  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * NEWS: Document addition of %S.

        * find/defs.h, find/find.1, find/parser.c, find/pred.c:
        Implemented %S (sparseness) printf format, and general refactoring and cleanup of printf predicate

2006-12-01  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * NEWS, configure.in: Begin work on findutils 4.2.30

        * find/find.c:
        Fix compilation error for oldfind if --enable-debug was passed to configure

        * NEWS, configure.in: Prepare for work on findutils-4.3.3

2006-11-25  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/testsuite/Makefile.am: Added test case for Savannah bug #17782

        * doc/textinfo.tex: Removed; we now use the version supplied 
        by automake.
        
        * m4/mkinstalldirs.m4: Added this file.  It's an excerpt from an
        old version of gnulib's m4/nls.po file.  The current version of
        gnulib does not expand MKINSTALLDIRS, but gettext-0.14.6's version
        of po/Makefile.in.in expects it to be expanded.  This m4 file
        fills the gap.

2006-11-20  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * po/et.po, po/bg.po, po/pl.po, po/nl.po, po/tr.po: Updated
        translations for Bulgarian, Estonian, Dutch, Polish and Turkish.

2006-11-08  James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/testsuite/Makefile.am:
        Oops, indicate the right directory for the new test files

        * 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:
        Savannah bug#18222 - test case

        * ChangeLog, lib/buildcmd.c:
        Fixed Svannah bug #17782 ('./' prefix added at start of arg while it should be added at the start of the expansion of {})

        * find/ftsfind.c (process_all_startpoints): Set
        state.starting_path_length for every pathname argument.
        This fixes Savannah bug #18222.

        * find/pred.c (pred_prune): -prune should have an effect only if we are
         currently considering a directory (Savannah bug #15531).
        
2006-10-15  James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

        * lib/buildcmd.c: Fixed Savannah bug #17782, in which "find
        -execdir echo "foo {}" runs 'echo ./foo filename' instead of the
        correct command 'echo foo ./filename'.
        
        * po/hu.po, po/sl.po: Updated Hungarian and Slovenian po files

2006-08-21  James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/parser.c, find/testsuite/Makefile.am, find/testsuite/find.gnu/sv-bug-17490.exp:
        Fixed Savannah bug #17490, which was a coiredump when -regex ZZZ was the final test on the command line

2006-08-20  James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/parser.c: Merged the fix for the trailing % in "find -printf".

2006-08-20  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

        Port recent fixes for symbolic modes involving X from gnulib,
        and clarify the documentation in this area.
        * doc/find.texi: Use "file mode bits" when talking about
        all the file mode bits (including setuid, setgid, and sticky),
        and "permissions" when talking only about permissions bits
        (read, write, execute/search).  Use "execute/search" to
        talk about the x bit, since it means both.  You do not need
        permission to the linked-to file to follow a symlink for
        syscalls like "stat", but you do need search permission for
        the directories you traverse.  Clarify the explanation of
        -perm.  Use "that" instead of "which" when "which" isn't
        quite correct English.
        (Mode Bits): Renamed from Permissions.  All uses changed.
        * doc/perm.texi: Sync from coreutils 6.0.
        * find/defs.h (struct perm_val.val): Now an array of two items,
        one for non-directories, and one for directories.  This is
        to handle symbolic modes like +X correctly.
        * find/parser.c (parse_perm): Likewise.  Also, adjust to
        latest gnulib interface for mode_adjust.
        * find/pred.c (pred_perm): Likewise.
        * find/testsuite/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST_XO): Add find.posix/perm-X.xo.
        (EXTRA_DIST_EXP): Add find.posix/perm-X.exp.
        * find/testsuite/find.posix/perm-X.exp: New file.
        * find/testsuite/find.posix/perm-X.so: New file.

12006-08-19  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

        Port to latest gnulib, and simplify the bootstrapping procedure.
        * intl: Remove this directory and everything in it.
        * depcomp, install-sh, missing, mkinstalldirs, doc/texinfo.tex:
        Remove these files from CVS, as they are now gotten from gnulib.
        * README-CVS: Don't recommend "autoreconf -i", as it doesn't work

        * lib/buildcmd.c: reindent and untabify

        * configure.in: The CVS code is moving on from the previous release.

2005-11-22  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * ChangeLog: Updated with recent changes.

2005-11-21  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
        Even if we expect locate to return a nonzero status, the test should
        still fail if updatedb fails!

        * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/ignore_case2.exp:
        Set the current directory for updatedb.  This test case is supposed to
        fail because the filename is not matched, not because updatedb fails!

        * locate/updatedb.sh:
        Check the binaries actually exist in the place we expect.

2005-11-20  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * locate/locate.1, xargs/xargs.1: Escape '-' as '\-' where appropriate.

        * find/find.1:

        Applied edited form of Andreas Metzler's -perm /mode documentation
        patch resolving Savannah bug #14619.

        * lib/extendbuf.c:
        In the success case, extendbuf() should preserve the previous value of
        errno.  Fixes Savannah bug #14842.

        * xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am: Added new test files

        * find/find.1:
        Correctly indicate the default regular expression syntax (fixes
        Savannah bug #14836).

        * NEWS, configure.in: Released findutils-4.2.26

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

2005-11-18  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net> (tiny change)

        * lib/buildcmd.c (bc_push_arg): When exec'ing, don't exceed
        Linux's limit on the maximum number of command line arguments.

2005-11-11  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * NEWS, find/find.c, find/fstype.c: Savannah bug #14922: if we need the
        list of mounted filesystems but it is not available, exit fatally
        with a message.  If it is not available but we don't need it,
        there is no need for an error.

        argument of -I is mandatory

2005-09-20  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * NEWS, configure.in, doc/find.texi, xargs/xargs.1, xargs/xargs.c:
        Documentation clarification: -L and -I take a mandatory argument;
        -l and -i do not

2005-09-17  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * xargs/xargs.c:
        Fixed Savannah bug #14550 - if environment is too large to allow
        exec() to work, we cannot even use "xargs --help".

        * find/find.1:
        Avoid the use of -perm +mode, using -perm /mode instead.  From comment
        by Andreas Metzler (though I didn't read the patch).

2005-07-29  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * NEWS, configure.in
        Prepared for the release of findutils-4.2.24

        * ChangeLog: Updated with recent changes.

        * NEWS, find/find.1, doc/find.texi:
        Indicate that -ok and -okdir redirect stdin from /dev/null.

        * NEWS: Explain the directory link count change more throroughly.

        * NEWS: Fixed bug #13973.

        * find/pred.c (pred_fprintf): Fix Savannah bug #13973: Modify the
        handling of -printf %Y so that it no longer modifies stat_buf

        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf-symlink.exp,
        find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf-symlink.xo: Detect Savannah bug
        #13973: pollution of stat_buf by the %Y directive (trivial change

        Updated auxilliary files from the automake-1.9 distribution

        * configure.in:
        Introduce new Automake conditional, CROSS_COMPILING, true when we are corss compiling

        * find/find.c:

        * lib/Makefile.am: Don't build regexprops if we are cross compiling

        * doc/Makefile.am:
        Depend on the regex.h file rather than the 'regexprops' binary,
        because the header file will always exist even if we are doing "make
        dist".  Otherwise "make distcheck" fails because it tries to rebuild
        find.info while the source-directory is read-only.

2005-07-28  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.1:
        Say "other users" rather than "rest of the world" when talking about

        * xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am: Added new test case 'childfail.exp'.

        the leaf optimisation is enabled or not

        * find/find.c: Fixed typo.

        * find/find.c: If the link count of a directory starts off less
        than two, disable the leaf optimisation for this directory.

2005-07-26  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * lib/regexprops.c: Further small corrections from Karl.

        * doc/Makefile.am: If the regexprops program has changed we should
        re-run it, since it will probably now produce different output

        * lib/regextype.h:
        Allow the caller to detect if one regex type is identical to another.

        * configure.in:
        Define the preprocessor macro FINDUTILS for that code int he lib/
        directory can be slightly more reusable.

        * lib/regextype.c:

2005-06-12  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.c, NEWS:
        Savannah bug #13381 (Debian bug 313081): if we have O_NOFOLLOW,
        safely_chdir() does not need to call stat().  However, process_dir()
        used to rely on using that stat information.  To work around this
        problem, there is now an output parameter in safely_chdir() which
        indicates if the stat buffer is valid.
        This bug has possible security implications.

        * find/find.1, doc/find.texi:
        Applied patch from Andreas Metzler, improving the wording for the
        documentation of the %k and %b format directives.  This patch does
        not require a copyright assignment as it consists of several
        copies of the same small wording change.

        * find/find.1: Corrected spelling error 'writeable' to 'writable'.

        * find/find.c, lib/savedirinfo.c, lib/savedirinfo.h: Switch to a
        new scheme for saving directory entry data which is extensible to
        allow additional data to be saved.

2005-06-09  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
        Use the new normalize_dir procedure throughout.

        * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp: Move the normalisation into a
        procedure.  Don't rely on the "file normalize" command being
        available (it's new in Tcl 8.4).

2005-06-08  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * ChangeLog, NEWS, configure.in: Updated for recent changes

        * doc/find.texi:
        Explain that you should put the argument of -name in quotes.

        but are caused by mistakes or misunderstandings.

        * doc/find.texi, locate/locate.1: Applied Bas van Gompel's patch
        which allows the database to be read from stdin.

        * locate/locate.c:
        Read the database in by using the "visitor" pattern.  Modified file
        header comment to indicate that we no longer use the efficient
        algorith described in ;login:.  Emit an error message if the
        LOCATE_PATH variable implies that we should read stdin twice.
        Most of this code is from Bas van Gompel.

        * AUTHORS: Credit Bas van Gompel for his work on locate.

        * lib/printquoted.h: Appled patch from Bas - fixing compiler warning.

2005-06-07  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/parser.c:
        The previous change fixed Savannah bug #12999.  This change doesn't do

        ID we've just fixed.

        * find/parser.c:
        Oops.  Initialise the variable which indicates which regex syntax to

        always evaluate to false.   Suggest to the user what alternatives they
        might find useful.

        * configure.in: Modernized the way we call AC_INIT and
        AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE

        * locate/locate.c, find/pred.c, find/find.c:
        Eliminated some compiler warnings

        * find/pred.c: Clarified the meaning of a comment.

        * find/testsuite/Makefile.am: Added sizes.exp, sizes.xo.

        * find/testsuite/find.posix/sizes.xo,
        find/testsuite/find.posix/sizes.exp: Added tests for -size
        predicate

2005-03-03  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.c:
        safely_chdir_lstat(): if we didn't end up in the right place, and then
        fchdir() fails, we can't return to the directory we started in.
        Therefore, issue a fatal error message and exit.

2005-03-01  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.c, find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-12181.exp,
        find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-12181.xo: Fixed SourceForge bug
        12181 (find -H symlink-to-dir reports 'Too many Symbolic links')
        and bug 12044 (find still hangs on dead NFS filesystems on
        Solaris)

2005-02-28  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * doc/find.texi: Typo: O_NOFOLLOW, not O_FOLLOW

        * import-gnulib.sh:
        Suggestion from Martin Buchholz; unset CDPATH to prevent "cd" echoing
        the new directory.

2005-02-27  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * README: Indicate how the reader can verify the release.

2005-02-23  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * Makefile.am: Fix Savannah bug #12064 - 'make distclean' deletes
        regex.c but should not.

        * find/testsuite/Makefile.am,
        find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf-h.exp,
        find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf-h.xo: Added test case for Savannah
        bug #12085 (-printf %h).

        * NEWS, doc/find.texi, find/find.1, find/pred.c:
        %h now expands to '.' instead of nothing.

2005-02-22  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.c:
        Fixed Savannah bug #12099 (misinterpretation of system versions
        leading to possible incorrect disabling of O_NOFOLLOW).  Reported by
        Dmitry V. Levin.

        * find/pred.c:
        For the %h format, don't bail out early as the format might contain
        something else too.

2005-02-21  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.c: Fixed accidental C99 dependency.

2005-02-20  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        po/sv.po, po/tr.po, po/zh_CN.po: Updated italian translation

        * doc/find.texi: Corrected a typo.

        * find/find.c:
        Read the mounted device list afer parsing the command line, so that
        for example "find --version" still works (in response to Savannah bug
        #12044).

        * configure.in: We've moved on from findutils-4.2.18.

2005-02-19  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * NEWS: Corrected the summary of the "find -depth" bug.

2005-02-16  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * NEWS, configure.in: Prepared for release of 4.2.18.

        * ChangeLog: Updated prior to release of 4.2.18.

        * find/testsuite/Makefile.am:
        Distribute the test cases for the recent "find -depth" bug.

        * find/testsuite/find.posix/depth1.exp, find/testsuite/find.posix/depth1.xo:
        Added test case for find -depth bug reported by Joseph S. Myers

        * find/find.c:
        If -depth is in effect, processing of the subdirectories invalidates
        the information in 'state'.  Therefore once we get around to
        processing the predicates, restore the information that we keep in
        'state' and in 'stat_buf'.

2005-02-15  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * ChangeLog: Updated with recent changes

        * find/find.1:
        Emphasise that -L causes find to recurse into subdirectories pointed
        to by symbolic links.

        * find/find.1:
        Patch to find.1 from Aaron Hawley <Aaron.Hawley@uvm.edu>:

        * Notes about -H actually apply to -L.
        * Said paragraph is duplicated two paragraphs later.
        * Typos: nno, ibmue, surrpounding

2005-02-15  Aaron Hawley  <Aaron.Hawley@uvm.edu>

        * find/find.1: Notes about -H actually apply to -L.  Said
        paragraph is duplicated two paragraphs later.  Also typos: nno,
        ibmue, surrpounding

2005-02-13  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.1: Miscellaneous small clarifications and improvements.

        * doc/find.texi: Added Info nodes and menus under "Changing the
        Current Working Directory" so that it doesn't generate such a huge
        Info page.

        * find/find.c: Parenthesise #if defined(...).

2005-02-13  Dmitry V. Levin  <ldv@altlinux.org>
        
        * find/find.c: remove test code snippet (time(NULL) was used to
        place a marker for spotting with strace(), but was not actually
        needed).

        * find/find.c (safely_chdir_nofollow): must not fall back on
        safely_chdir_lstat() because that will expose it to race condition
        exploits, making it pointless.

        * find/find.c (safely_chdir_lstat): Move
        complete_pending_execdirs() up into safely_chdir(), because we
        need to do that in either case.

2005-02-12  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * configure.in, doc/find.texi, find/defs.h, find/find.c,
        find/parser.c: Fix for Savannah bug #11879, that
        init_mounted_dev_list() causes find to hang on systems which are
        clients to dead NFS servers

2005-02-10  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * doc/find.texi: Talk about the problem where find will not work
        if you have a filesystem mounted from an unresponsive NFS server.

2005-02-09  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.1: Indicate that $TZ affects from printf-format
        results, and add extra cross-references in the SEE ALSO section.

2005-02-08  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am: Distribute the .xe files also.

        * Makefile.am: Check that we have the right number of .xe files in
        the distribution also.

        * ChangeLog, NEWS, configure.in
        Preparing to release findutils-4.2.17

2005-02-07  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp: Re-sort the .xo file using the
        calling user's locale, because our 'pre-sorted' .so output file
        may not be sorted with the same collating order as 'sort' used to
        order the output of "find.  Bug spotted by Vin Shelton and Dimitry
        V. Levin.

        * find/testsuite/Makefile.am:
        New test, find/testsuite/find.gnu/follow-arg-parent-symlink.exp.

        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/follow-arg-parent-symlink.exp,
        find/testsuite/find.gnu/follow-arg-parent-symlink.xo, find/find.c:
        Fix for starting point /foo/bar/baz where bar is a symlink but baz
        is not - we should chdir into bar there even if it is a symbolic
        link

2005-02-07  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/testsuite/Makefile.am:
        New test, find/testsuite/find.gnu/follow-arg-parent-symlink.exp.

        Fix for starting point /foo/bar/baz where bar is a symlink but baz
        is not - we should chdir into bar there even if it is a symbolic
        link

2005-02-06  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * doc/find.texi:
        -size: Clarification - -size gives a result consistent with 'wc -c'
         for example.

        * Makefile.am, find/testsuite/Makefile.am,
        find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-root-only.exp,
        find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-root-only.xo,
        locate/testsuite/Makefile.am, xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am:
        dist-hook: Ensure that we distribute all the .po files and all the
        testsuite files

        * po/pl.po: Updated Polish translation from TP website

2005-02-05  Dmitry V. Levin  <ldv@altlinux.org>

        * find/parser.c, find/pred.c: Additional tweaks for
        -execdir/-okdir actions.
        
        * find/parser.c (new_insert_exec_ok): Disable ignore_readdir_race
        for -execdir/-okdir.
        
        * find/pred.c (pred_execdir, pred_okdir): Use state.rel_pathname
        instead of basename(pathname).  Do not add "./" prefix for
        absolute pathnames.
        
        * find/find.c (process_top_path): Treat "/" similarly to ".".

        * xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/savannah-11865.exp,
        xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/savannah-11865.xo, xargs/xargs.c:
        Fixed Savannah bug #11866 (not resetting number of used chars in
        the command buffer) - reported by Dimitry V. Levin

2005-02-05  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * THANKS:
        Added thanks for Dimitry - has produced many patches, bugfixes and
        suggestions.

        * find/pred.c:
        Fixed Savannah bug #11866: typo in pred_okdir() renders it useless

        * find/pred.c:
        Savannah bug #11861: undefined symbol 'basename' on IRIX 5.3

        po/tr.po: make update-po prior to 'make distcheck'

        * po/fetch-po-files: This is the first version we actually used.

        * find/find.c: process_top_path() fixed compilation warning.

        * find/find.c: process_top_path(): avoid processing this item if
        we can't chdir to the basename of the named file.

        * lib/Makefile.am: Always build forcefindlib.c

        * locate/locate.c: Say 'base name' rather than 'basename' in comments

        * find/pred.c, find/find.c: process_top_path(): Proper bugfix for
        correct handling of items at depth 0 (i.e. specified on the
        command line) - do an extra chdir to ensure that we're in the
        directory containing the item before calling process_path().
        Hnece also undo the previous 'quick fix' for the same problem

        * doc/find.texi:
        -execdir no longer has to treat anything as special, even at depth 0.

2005-02-03  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * doc/find.texi, find/pred.c: When state.curdepth is 0, our
        working directory is not the directory containing the file we are
        processing.

2005-02-02  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/pred.c:
        To allow compilation on cygwin, use base_name(), not basename().


2005-02-01  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * ChangeLog: Updated from CVS log.

2005-01-31  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.c, lib/nextelem.c, lib/nextelem.h, locate/code.c,
        locate/frcode.c, locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp,
        xargs/testsuite/config/unix.exp, xargs/xargs.c: Updated/corrected
        the email address for David MacKenzie, one of the original authors
        of findutils

        * doc/Makefile.am: The HTML version of the manual generated for
        the GNU project website has each node in a separate file, not each
        chapter in a separate file; adjust filenames accordingly

        * find/parser.c, find/pred.c, lib/savedirinfo.c:
        Removed some unused variables (patch from Dmitry V. Levin)

        * find/find.c:
        Patch from Dmitry V. Levin <ldv@altlinux.org>: Add subfs to the list
        of filesystems which are likely to be automounted.

        * m4/findlib.m4: Corrected typo (pointed out by Dmitry V. Levin).

        * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp,
        find/testsuite/find.gnu/name-period.xo,
        find/testsuite/find.gnu/posix-dflt.xo,
        find/testsuite/find.gnu/posix-h.xo,

        find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf.exp,
        find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf.xo: Systems differ in the order in
        which filenames are returned by readdir.  Hence sort the output of
        'find' before comparing against the expected-output file.  We
        therefore also have the lines in the .xo files ready-sorted.

2005-01-30  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * doc/Makefile.am:
        Added rules for extra targets that we buld to update the web site.

2005-01-29  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * configure.in: No longer version 4.2.15 - we've changed the manual.

        * doc/find.texi:
        Clarified the txt about adding extra tests with post-processing via
        xargs, and recommend -execdir instead for security reasons.

        * doc/find.texi: Patch from Karl Berry:
        - more entries for the dir file
        - use @copying so the copyright ends up in the HTML etc. output.
          (This is the only really important change.)
        - put @contents after the title page, for conventional toc location.
        - use @ifnottex to wrap the Top node instead of @ifinfo, for the sake of
          HTML output, etc.

2005-01-28  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * configure.in:
        Make --enable-d_type-optimization and --enable-d_type-optimisation
        both work.

        * configure.in: Assume --enable-d_type-optimisation by default

        * find/parser.c: Indicate which features are enabled/disabled

        * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
        Clean up the files left behind by the locate_textonly test

2005-01-27  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * doc/find.texi: Documented --regex.

        * NEWS, locate/locate.1, locate/locate.c, locate/testsuite/Makefile.am, locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp, locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/regex1.exp:
        Implemented locate --regex - but needs documenting in Texinfo manual.

2005-01-25  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * configure.in: Bumped version no.

        * doc/find.texi:
        Document --mmap and --stdio as being synonyms of -m and -s.

        * locate/locate.1:
        Document --mmap and --stdio as synonyms of -m and -s.

        * locate/locate.c:
        Document -m and -s (both no-ops) in the usage message.

        * doc/find.texi, locate/locate.1: Document -m and -s as no-ops.

2005-01-24  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * Makefile.am: Work around the fact that automake-1.7 actually
        works, and correctly distributes regex.c; hence dist-hook should
        only copy gnulib/lib/regex.c if this has not already been done.

        * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/pred.c,
        find/testsuite/Makefile.am,

        find/testsuite/find.gnu/xtype-symlink.xo: Fixes for -xtype and
        -printf %Y, which had been the wrong way around.

        * NEWS: Avoid including the find.gnu subdirectory in the
        distributed file more than once

        * locate/locate.c:
        Move the printing of the statistics into a new function, print_stats()

        * find/testsuite/Makefile.am: Avoid including the find.gnu
        subdirectory in the distributed file more than once

        * import-gnulib.sh:
        We need the regex module anyway, to allow compilation on Solaris

2005-01-23  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * configure.in:
        Invoke gl_INCLUDED_REGEX directly to ensure successful compilation on
        systems like Solaris, which lacks those functions in libc (fixes GNU
        Savannah bug #11710).

        * locate/locate.1: -S is a synonym for --statistics

        * doc/find.texi: Documented the new -H, -L and -P options.

        * locate/locate.1, locate/locate.c: Implement options -L
        (default), -H and -P, which mean the same things as for find,
        except for the fact that the default is -L rather than -P

        * find/find.1: Corrected definition of the exit status for -quit.

        * find/find.c, find/pred.c: If DEBUG_STAT is set, issue a debug
        message when we call chdir() so that we can figure out what is
        actually being stat()ed

        * locate/updatedb.sh:
        Removed spurious newline from help message (bug report from Karl
        Berry).

        * NEWS:
        Updated optimisation NEWS item to indicate the effect on runtime.

2005-01-22  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * NEWS, configure.in: Prepare for release of findutils-4.2.12

        ensure that 'make distcheck' works with current xgettext,
        autoconf, etc.

        * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
        Oops, we do need to clean up after all.

2005-01-21  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am: Added name of missing input file.

        * find/testsuite/Makefile.am:
        Distribute a few files that we had forgotten about

        * xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am: Added some missing files.

        * lib/Makefile.am: Also need buildcmd.h.

        * xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am: Fixed a typo.

        * NEWS: Indicate the d_type performance improvement

2005-01-18  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * lib/savedirinfo.h: Added on d_type_optimisation also

        * lib/savedirinfo.c: Added on branch d_type_optimisation also.

        * find/pred.c: Added assert that we actually know the file type by
        the time pred_type() is called

        * find/find.c: Always initialise state.have_stat = false when
        starting to work with a new file

2005-01-17  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * ChangeLog: Brought up to date with recent changes.

        * NEWS: Documented the changes so far.

        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-many-rtn-success.xo:
        Expected output for exec-many-rtn-success.exp

        * find/find.1:
        Indicate that -quit still ensures that pending commands are invoked

        * doc/find.texi:
        Indicate that -quit still causes partial command lines to be invoked,
        but there are some types of fatal error which leave such commands
        uninvoked.

        * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/pred.c, find/testsuite/Makefile.am, find/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
        Fixed savannah bug  #11625 Wrong return status for -exec ... \; when command fails; also execute any pending commands when doing -quit

        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-many-rtn-failure.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-many-rtn-failure.xo, find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-many-rtn-success.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-one-rtn-fail.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-one-rtn-fail.xo, find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-one-rtn-success.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-one-rtn-success.xo:
        Various test cases for succeeding and failing forms of -exec \; and -exec {} +

        * find/pred.c: "-exec ... {} +" always returns "true".

        * configure.in, find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c, find/tree.c, find/util.c:
        Implemented d_type optimisation but not working correctly, so currently disabled

        * lib/savedirinfo.h, lib/savedirinfo.c:
        Initial implementation (temporarily disabled).

        * lib/Makefile.am: Resolved merge conflict.

        * lib/Makefile.am:
        Make sure nextelem.h is included in the list of sources.

        * find/parser.c, lib/nextelem.c, lib/nextelem.h, locate/locate.c:
        Use prototypes for next_element() to make sure it is called correctly.

2005-01-16  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.c, find/pred.c:
        When completing incomplete multiple execs, use 'eval_tree' not 'predicates'

        * lib/buildcmd.c:
        Oops, initialise state->cmd_initial_argv_chars to zero.

        * find/find.1:
        Document the way that -execdir and -okdir will refuse to wqork if ">"
        is on $PATH.  Also document -okdir in the manpage.

        * find/parser.c:
        -execdir and -okdir are insecure if $PATH includes the current
         directory, and so they refuse to work if the user has done that.

        * find/pred.c:
        Oops; for -exec ... {} +, pass arguments to bc_push_arg() in the right
        order.   Problem spotted by Geoff Clare.

        * TODO: Removed items which have now been done.

        * lib/buildcmd.c: Tidied up formatting of arg list for bc_do_insert

2005-01-15  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf.xo:
        Added extra tests for more printf formats; patch by Andreas Metzler

        * locate/locate.c:
        Ensure that the new long options have a relevang short option too.
        Also bring usage message into line with the options actually
        supported.  Thanks to Bas van Gompel for noticing this defect.

        * locate/locate.1:
        Escape "-" in SYNOPSIS.  Thanks to Bas van Gompel for noticing this
        defect.

        * ChangeLog: Fixed typos.

        * doc/find.texi:
        Documented -execdir, and the "+" variants of -exec and -execdir.

        * find/find.1: Documented -execdir.

        Updated to bring into line with bc_*() interface changes

        * ChangeLog: Updated with recent changes.

        * find/defs.h, find/parser.c, find/pred.c, lib/buildcmd.c, lib/buildcmd.h:

        * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/fstype.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c, lib/buildcmd.c, lib/buildcmd.h, xargs/xargs.c:
        First working version of -exec ...+

2005-01-09  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c, lib/buildcmd.c, lib/buildcmd.h, xargs/xargs.c:
        Initial implementation of -exec ..{} +, but currently disabled since not yet working

2005-01-08  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.c: Fixed typo in comment.

        * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c:
        We now understand but do not implement -execdir (a *BSD invention, and a very useful security enhancement) and -okdir (the obvious companion to it)

        * locate/bigram.c, locate/code.c, locate/frcode.c, locate/locate.c, xargs/xargs.c:
        The GNU coding standard requires a space between the function name and
        its parenthesised argument list.

        * find/defs.h:
        Understand the -exec ... {} \+ construction (for multiple
        replacement).  No support yet.

        * locate/locate.1:
        Indicate that empty elements in the dbpath are treated as synonyms for
        the default database.

        * locate/locate.c:
        Support empty elements in the dbpath as synonyms for the default
        database.  These colons can be leading, trailing or in the middle of
        the string.  We no longer com,plain if the user does this.

        * lib/nextelem.c:
        If curdir_ok is 0 and an element is empty, return "" instead of NULL
        so that the caller knows to keep calling us.

        * find/find.c, find/pred.c, import-gnulib.sh, locate/bigram.c, locate/code.c, locate/frcode.c, locate/locate.c, xargs/xargs.c:
        Savannah bug 11517: find, xargs, locate, etc. should not hide write failures; patch from Jim Meyering

        * 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:
        changed .pot creation date

        * THANKS, AUTHORS: Take into account the FSF copyright-assignments list

        * doc/find.texi:
        If -quit is used, the exit value can be nonzero if errors have occurred.

        * find/find.1:
        Removed incorrect comment about -H, -P and -follow in HISTORY.

2005-01-07  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * lib/Makefile.am, lib/buildcmd.c, lib/buildcmd.h, xargs/xargs.c:
        Refactored xargs to use an external library function from the new file buildcmd.c

        * configure.in: no longer the same as the released 4.2.11 version

2005-01-06  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * xargs/testsuite/inputs/lines.xi, xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/l2.exp, xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am:
        Tests for the -L option

        * xargs/testsuite/config/unix.exp: When a test fails, show the diffs

        * xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/l2.exp, xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/l2.xo:
        tests for the -l option

        * xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am: Added extra test files

        * xargs/testsuite/xargs.sysv/trace.exp, xargs/testsuite/xargs.sysv/trace.xe, xargs/testsuite/xargs.sysv/trace.xo:
        Added tests for the -t option

        * 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:
        Use a blanks-only input file for cases where there is supposed to be no output

        * xargs/testsuite/inputs/blank.xi: Initial version.

        * xargs/xargs.1:
        Corrected a typo; also indicate that it's impossible to use xargs
        securely due to the race condition.

2005-01-05  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/parser.c:
        Fixed Savannah bug 11495: fallthrough from -printf format processing
        from 'n' case to 'd' case.

2005-01-03  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * doc/find.texi:
        Oops.  Had duplicated an entire section.  Fortunately this was after
        @bye, so there was no adverse effect.

        * NEWS: locate -b.

        * doc/find.texi, locate/locate.1: document locate -S

        * configure.in, doc/find.texi, locate/locate.1, locate/locate.c:
        Support locate -b as a synonym for locate --basename

        * 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:
        distcheck

        * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
        Clean up (delete) find.out at at the end of the test.

        * NEWS, doc/find.texi, find/defs.h, find/find.1, find/find.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c:
        Implemented the -samefile test for find

2005-01-02  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * ChangeLog: Updated with recent changes.

        * NEWS:
        Bas van Gompel: two-line patch to locate.c to make locate's -i and -w
        options work if -e is in use.

        * THANKS: Added Bas van Gompel.

        * locate/locate.c:
        Bas van Gompel: (visit_exists) when testing for the existence of the
        file, check the real filename [printname], not the case-converted
        filename [testname].  Really these argument names are badly chosen.

        * find/find.1, doc/find.texi:
        Improved the documentation for -perm, with plenty of examples,
        following a comment by Dan Jacobson that the comment "Symbolic modes
        use mode 0 as a point of departure" is baffling and unhelpful.

        * locate/locate.c:
        Suggestion and patch from Bas van Gompel: (new_locate): Fix display of
        negative compression ratios.

2004-12-31  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * NEWS: Brought up to date with recent changes

        * doc/find.texi:
        Don't need to nest the "race conditions with..." sections so deeply.

        * doc/find.texi: Corrected some spelling errors.

        * doc/find.texi: Added new "Security Considerations" chapter.

2004-12-23  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * locate/locate.c:
        Applied bugfixes from Bas van Gompel <patch-findutils.buzz@bavag.tmfweb.nl>.
        (lc_strcpy): Zero-terminate result.
        (add_visitor): Update lastinspector.
        (visit_substring_match_casefold): fix off-by-one error.
        (new_locate): Move visit_exists down to improve performance.
        (new_locate): Don't fold case when getting stats.

2004-12-19  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * doc/find.texi:
        Indicate that "cd /; find tmp -wholename /tmp" will never match anything.

        * doc/find.texi: Documented locate --statistics.

        * locate/locate.1: Documented the --statistics option.

        * locate/locate.c: Added support for the -S option.

2004-12-12  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * NEWS: Added a summary of the changes so far.

        * find/tree.c: Made some of the error messages more self-explanatory

        * find/pred.c: Print pointers with %p, not %x.

        * find/find.c: Moved option data into struct options.

        * find/find.1: clarifications

        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/comma.exp:
        Limit the amount of searching with maxdepth.

        * doc/find.texi: clearer description of how -prune works

        * ChangeLog: Removed duplicate entry.

        * configure.in, find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/fstype.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c, find/tree.c, find/util.c:
        Separated ariables representing current state from variable representing option information

2004-12-11  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/parser.c: Readability improvement to the usage message.

        * find/find.c: Oops.  Fixed unmatched #endif.

        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf.xo, THANKS, configure.in, find/testsuite/Makefile.am, find/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
        Fixed Savannah bug #11280

        * find/find.c:
        Remember to set path_length and curdepth in process_top_path().

2004-12-07  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/fstype.c: Use xstat() not stat() to examine things.

        * find/find.c: Explain why #ifdef EOVERFLOW.

        * find/find.c: EOVERFLOW is not defined on UNICOS.

        * NEWS: Corrected typo.

2004-12-06  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * ChangeLog: Brought up to date.

        * NEWS, configure.in: releasing 4.2.10

        * 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:
        distcheck

        * ChangeLog: Updated prior to release of finsutils-4.2.10.

        * import-gnulib.sh, find/fstype.c:
        Use gnulib's mountlist module instead of grokking it ourselves.

        * configure.in:
        Removed all the out-of-date cruft for grokking getmntent().

        * xargs/xargs.c:
        Added the -I and -L options; also -E takes an argument which is not optional.

2004-12-05  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * README, configure.in, find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c, find/tree.c:
        Allow debug output to be turned on or off by saying --enable-debug on the configure command line

        * README:
        Removed disparaging (it is now, it probably wasn't then) comment about
        the production-readiness of Automake.

        * README: Qualify remarks about POSIX compliance.

        * NEWS, configure.in: Preparation for release 4.2.9

        * 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:
        distcheck

        * ChangeLog: Brought up to date.

        * find/find.c:
        Avoid duplicate error message when we cannot chdir() into a subdirectory.

        * THANKS: Added recent thankees.

        * NEWS:
        Brought up to date with respect to the current set of fixed bugs.

        * NEWS, xargs/xargs.1, xargs/xargs.c:
        Implemented POSIX options -L, -I and -E

2004-12-03  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/parser.c:
        -xdev is an option, not a test.   Fixes Savannah bug 11192.

        * find/find.1, xargs/xargs.1:
        Escape dashes with a backslash (for fix Savannah bug 11189).

2004-11-27  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.c:
        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.

        * find/find.1: "necessary" only has one "C".

        * find/find.1:
        If stat() fails with ELOOP, we issue a diagnostic message.

2004-11-26  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.c: Removed some unused code.

        * Makefile.am: Don't do anything in the 'intl' subdirectory

        * find/find.c:
        Enhanced safely_chdir() to the point where the test suite passes, and report infinite loops in the directory hierarchy

        * find/defs.h:
        belt and braces; ensure that SYMLINK_NEVER_DEREF has value zero

        * find/find.1:
        Describe our strategy for detecting and reporting infinite loops

2004-11-24  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * doc/find.texi:
        Updated the discussion of th error messages for findutils-4.2.8.

        * configure.in: Next version will be 4.2.9...

        * find/find.c:
        Don't issue a warning if we notice the mounting of a filesystem that's
        likely just to be an automounter.

        * doc/find.texi, find/find.1:
        Explain how rounding is performed for -atime and friends.

        * xargs/xargs.c:
        Once we collect enough arguments (for the value specified by the -n
        option) to do an exec(), do it immediaely instead of waiting for the
        next one to arrive.  This fixes Savannah bug #7340.

        * ChangeLog, configure.in, NEWS: Prepare to release 4.2.8.

        * NEWS: Updates for 4.2.8.

        * configure.in: check for  sys/types.h

        * find/find.c:
        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.

        * find/defs.h:
        Declarations of xmalloc() and friends belong in xalloc.h, not in defs.h

        * find/parser.c: avoid signed/unsigned warning, and #include xalloc.h

        * find/fstype.c:
        Changed to alloc get_mounted_devices() to compile on Solaris

        * README-CVS:
        Automake requires GNU m4, so point out that the reader needs that.

        * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/fstype.c:
        When wd_sanity_check() fails, enumerate the mounted devices, rather than the mounted filesystem names

        * NEWS: prepare for 4.2.8

        * configure.in:
        Look for some Solaris headers which are used by get_mounted_devices()

        * lib/Makefile.am: don't build savedirtypes yet

        Messages changed again

        * ChangeLog, configure.in: Preparing to release 4.2.7.

        * NEWS: Updated for release of 4.2.7.

        * import-gnulib.sh: Also need canonicalize module.

        * find/find.c:
        When checking to see if a filesystem has changed state, use an
        absolute pathname.

        * configure.in:
        No need to pause to allow James to view his handiwork, it (allegedly)
        works now.

        * configure.in:
        Oops.  Check for setlocale() to re-enable the i18n support which was
        accidentally disabled in 4.2.5.

        * find/find.c:
        Check to see if the new directory is a transitioned mount point by
        using its ABSOLUTE name, if we can figure it out.

        * doc/find.texi:
        Added guidance on some of the error messages.  Not the most common
        ones, but the ones where the user might most benefit from some handy
        hints or an explanation of what is going on.

        * find/pred.c:
        Actually emit an error message if we fail to stat a symlink (for
        reasons other than nonexistence of the link and infinite loop).

        * doc/texinfo.tex: Updated texinfo.tex

        * NEWS, configure.in, find/find.c, find/fstype.c:
        Enable the 'Warning: filesystem XXX has recently been mounted' check on Solaris, which prevents it exiting fatally when traversing an automount mount point

        * 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:
        messages changed again

        * NEWS: Implemented xargs --arg-file.

        * doc/find.texi, xargs/xargs.1, xargs/xargs.c, NEWS:
        Implemented xargs --arg-file

        * find/find.c:
        Where a filesystem was recently (un)mounted, try togive its full name

        * configure.in:
        Try to avoid requesting -lsun if we don't seem to need it (e.g. on
        UNICOS where it is not present and trying to link against it produces
        a warning).

        * find/defs.h, lib/modetype.h: Guard against multiple inclusion

        * find/fstype.c:
        We now need <mntent.h> even if we are not using getmntent() to figure
        out the type of a filesystem, because wd_sanity_check() needs to
        enumerate the system mount points.

        * configure.in: Next release will be 4.2.7.

        * find/fstype.c:
        get_mounted_filesystems() should use getmntent() if that function is
        present, rather than just if configure didn't find anything better for
        filesystem_type_uncached() to use than that.

        * find/parser.c:
        If -delete is the only action on a file, don't assume the default
        -print action too.

        * ChangeLog, configure.in, 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:
        Preparation to release findutils-4.2.6.

        * find/Makefile.am, xargs/Makefile.am:
        Enable checking of support for --version and --help

        * locate/Makefile.am:
        Con't check command-line options for frcode, code or bigram

        * locate/code.c: Support --version and --help.

        * ChangeLog: *** empty log message ***

        * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/fstype.c, lib/Makefile.am, lib/extendbuf.c, lib/extendbuf.h, NEWS:
        Avoid fatal error if automount mounts a filesystem on a directory because we chdir()ed into it

        * configure.in: Next release will be 4.2.6.

        * find/find.1:
        Indicate that the '-' flag does work for most fields.   Also provide
        an example of using the comma operator to traverse the filesystem just
        once but search for more than one thing.

        * doc/find.texi: Indicate that the '-' flag does work for most fields.

2004-11-19  James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

        * configure.in: releaseing findutils-4.2.5

        * find/testsuite/Makefile.am, locate/testsuite/Makefile.am, xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am:
        If a directory has no Makefile.am, omit it from the parent's DIST_SUBDIRS - automake-1.9 requires this

        * 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:
        updated by make distcheck

        * ChangeLog, NEWS: Updated for release 4.2.5.

        * find/find.1, doc/find.texi:
        Tell the reader that format flags may not work as they expect.

        * configure.in:
        Use the correct name for the macro gl_AC_TYPE_LONG_LONG (not
        jm_AC_TYPE_LONG_LONG).

2004-11-15  James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

        * import-gnulib.sh:
        Avoid test -e because not all systems are POSIX-compliant (bug
        #11005).  Also don't need regex module any more if we're not building
        in intl.

        * Makefile.am, configure.in:
        These days gnulib likes to include 'libintl.h' which our very old intl/ directory lacks.   For the moment, disable use of the internal intl/ directory

        * doc/find.texi:
        Use @ref not @xref for a reference at the beginning of a sentence.

        * intl/Makefile.in:
        Make sure gnulib.lib is on the #include path (Savannah bug #11002)

        * locate/locate.c:
        Use base_name instead of basename - fixes Savannah bug 11003.

        * configure.in, find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c, locate/bigram.c, locate/locate.c:
        Don't need banner to emphasise the location of the call to jy_SORTZ

2004-11-12  James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

        * doc/find.texi, find/find.1, find/parser.c, find/pred.c:
        Implemented %M and %A+ format specifiers

        * doc/find.texi, find/find.1, find/parser.c, find/pred.c:
        Documented the fact that only %d and %m format specifiers honour the various formatting flags

        * xargs/xargs.c:
        Get the right number of bytes in a Kilobyte (hint: it's not 1048; that
        was a typo, honest :)

        * po/pl.po: Applied Polish translations

2004-11-08  James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

        distcheck changed the po files again

        * locate/Makefile.am:
        Make install-data-hook honour the setting of DESTDIR so that "make
        DESTDIR=/tmp/foo install" works and puts localstater in the right
        place.

        * configure.in: We're now working on findutils-4.2.5.

        * po/sk.po: New translation file

        * po/fr.po, po/nl.po, po/tr.po: Updated translation files

        * configure.in: Added Slovak (sk) language.

        * xargs/xargs.c:
        Enforcing a lower limit on the value specified by -s makes the test
        suite fail.  Removed that lower limit.

        * locate/Makefile.am: Oops, multilocate doesn't exist yet.

        * NEWS: *** empty log message ***

        Added in the extra files we need to distribute, nullsort.m4
        order-bad.bin order-good.bin

2004-11-06  James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

        * NEWS, doc/find.texi, locate/locate.1:
        Documented --wholename and --basename and updated the NEWS file

        When deciding whether to issue a warning about options following
        non-options, ignore any options whose position affects the tests
        (i.e. -daystart and -follow).

        * find/parser.c: -daystart is a positional option like -follow.

        * find/parser.c:
        Issue a warning message if an option is specified after a test or an
        action (because the user might have believed that the behaviour of the

        Oops; removed some test code that I shouldn't have checked in.

        Extra diagnositcs for the case where we have the error "%s changed

        The -name predicate must allow '*' to match '.foo' as demanded by IEEE
        Std 1003.2-1992 Interpretation #126.

        * find/pred.c:
        Remove use of FNM_PERIOD for -name as demanded by IEEE Std 1003.2-1992
        Interpretation #126

        * find/parser.c: Fix for compilation (on AIX 4.3) with GCC 2.x.

        * xargs/xargs.c:
        Changed the erorr message issued when there is an unmatched quote to
        point out that the user might have wanted to use the -0 option instead.

2004-10-17  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * configure.in:
        Define intmax_t if it is not already defined - allows parser.c to compile on AIX 4.3

        * configure.in:
        Adjust version number to indicate that this s/w has moved on since the
        4.2.1 release.

        * configure.in: preparing to release 4.2.1

        * ChangeLog: updated with current changes

        * README-CVS: Updated to go with newer version of gnulib.

        * 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/sv.po, po/tr.po:
        preparation for release

        * NEWS: Mention the changes to "trap".

        * NEWS: Brought up to date.

        * import-gnulib.sh:
        Use xalloc-die module from gnulib, since that has now been split out

        * find/parser.c:
        Check fnmatch() when other predicates that rely on fnmatch() are used.

        * find/parser.c: bug #10701: find needs fnmatch sanitycheck on startup

2004-10-16  James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

        * import-gnulib.sh:
        Switch to requirement for GNU fnmatch because it supports FNM_CASEFOLD.

        * locate/updatedb.sh:
        Bug #9465: use of signal numbers for 'trap' is deprecated.  Should use
        names instead.  See
        http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/utilities/trap.html,
        which indicates that support for signal numbers is optional, while
        support for signal names is mandatory.

        * configure.in:
        Indicate that this is the CVS version (once again) now that findutils
        4.2.0 has been released.

        * ChangeLog, configure.in, 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/sv.po, po/tr.po:
        findutils 4.1.20 check-in for tagging

2004-10-02  James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

        * po/Makefile.in.in:
        Search in $(top_srcdir) for mkinstalldirs, since that's where we keep it.

        * NEWS: Brought up to date, organised more clearly, and tidied up.

        * NEWS: brought up to date with recent changes

        * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp, locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/ignore_case1.exp, locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/ignore_case3.exp, locate/updatedb.sh:
        Added new option --changecwd to updatedb so that the 'cd /' which it does can be compatible with the requirements of the test suite.  Specifically, the test suite relies on being able to use relative pathnames

        * find/pred.c:
        Fixed usage of human_readable() in '%k' format specifier to fix a bug
        reported by Dmitry V. Levin (arguments to human_readable() were
        specified in the wrong order, which resulted in a floating-point
        error).

2004-08-08  James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

        * locate/updatedb.sh:
        cd to / to avoid inability to examine the current directory if we're
        invoked via cron (and hence in root's home directory for example).

        * doc/find.texi, find/find.1:
        Deprecate -path and -ipath in favour of -wholename and -iwholename

        * find/parser.c:
        As per RMS's suggestion, deprecate -path and -ipath in favour of
        -wholename and -iwholename.

        * locate/locate.c:
        Fixed Savannah bug #9923, in which get_short() returns large positive
        ints when it should be returning negative shorts.

        * xargs/xargs.1:
        Applied documentation improvements suggested by Dan Jacobson
        <jidanni@jidanni.org>.

        * xargs/xargs.c:
        Don't check size_of_environment against arg_max since that causes the
        test suite to fail.

        * xargs/xargs.1, xargs/xargs.c: Better documentation for the -i option

2004-05-03  James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.1:
        document the various suffixes for -size and also the new 
        option -ignore_readdir_race

        * locate/locate.c:
        Fixes Savannah bug #8623 (failure to check consistency of data 
        read from locate database)

        * locate/updatedb.sh:
        Resolves Savannah bug 4380, that updatedb generates an empty
        database if one of the commands fails

        * NEWS: Talk about -ignore_readdir_race

        * doc/find.texi:
        Documented -ignore_readdir_race and -noignore_readdir_race

        * find/find.c:
        -ignore_readdir_race should have no effect if the reason for the
         failure of stat(2) was anything other than ENOENT.

        * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/parser.c:
        Fixed Savannah bug 4391 (readdir race condition leading to 
        spurious error messages)

2004-04-24  James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

        * README-CVS: Corrected the instructions for getting gnulib via CVS.

2004-04-13  James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

        * doc/find.texi:
        Actioned Savannah bug #8558 (find complains when it tries to recurse
        into directories that it had removed).

2004-03-13  James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

        * ChangeLog: Updated from checkin comments.

        * find/find.c:
        Oops, there is no access to the predicate name table if DEBUG is 
        not #defined.

        * find/parser.c:
        Detect arithmetic overflow (poorly) in insert_time(), which diagnoses
        the failure to handle large arguments to -mtime.  The existing code
        does careful computation and then bungs the value into a time_t, which
        ruins all our careful effort.  The new code is not a great
        improvement.  We just check the result to detect overflow, rather than
        actually avoiding the overflow.

        * find/find.c:
        Fixed Debian bug #185202 by checking for any trailing predicates after
        the top-level invocation of get_expr() has done its work.

        * locate/locate.1, xargs/xargs.1:
        Fixed Debian bug 175372, inappropriate 'L' suffixes on manual 
        page section indicators

        * find/find.1:
        Removed "L" suffixes from manual page section indicators, to fix
        Debian bug 175372.

        * debian/updatedb.conf:
        Updated with list of filesystems from current Debian release.  This
        includes devfs, for example.

        * xargs/xargs.1:
        Modified documentation of "-s" option to take into account the fix for
        Debian bug #176201.

        * xargs/xargs.c:
        Fixed Debian bug #176201, "xargs enviroment size limited to 20k", by
        reading a patch offered by Bob Proulx and implementing something
        substantially similar myself.

2004-01-03  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * xargs/xargs.c:
        Indicate that prep_child_for_exec() fixes Savannah bug #3992.

        * xargs/xargs.c:
        Attach the stdin of xargs' child process to /dev/null so that if it
        tries to read from its stdin it doesn't consume any of the list of
        files that xargs is trying to use.

        * find/find.1:
        Documented that the -regex option follows Gnulib's re_match() 
        implementation.

        * NEWS, locate/locate.c: Applied Savannah patch 2108

        * xargs/xargs.c: Applied Savannah patch 1500

        * find/find.1, doc/find.texi:
        Improved the documentation for the %k and %b format specifiers to
        -printf (Savannah bug #5034).  Also pointed out that this handling is
        different to that used by the "b" and "k" suffixes with "-size".

        * find/find.1: Improved the documentation for %k (Savannah bug #5034).

        * find/find.1:
        Improved the documentation for -print0 in the manpage, fixing Debian
        bug 111143.

        * README-CVS, find/pred.c, lib/listfile.c:
        Brought up-to-date with change in gnulib's human.c - we no longer 
        use human_readable_inexact(), because it is no longer provided.

2003-08-08  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.1:
        Documented the fact that -printf also supports the '\0' escape code.
        Added "STANDARDS CONFORMANCE" section.

2003-08-02  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.1:
        Explain that braces are not special when performing filename matching
        with -name.

        * find/find.1:
        added example of the use of -exec to the EXAMPLES section

        * find/fstype.c, locate/locate.c:
        Savannah bug #4295 - implicit declarations of ctype.h functions

        * locate/locate.c:
        Savannah bug #4279 - missing newline on locate help message

        * find/find.1, xargs/xargs.1:
        Improved discussion of the -print0 option of find and the -0 option of xargs

2003-06-26  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * import-gnulib.sh:
        Remove reference to nonexistent module "basename" ("dirname" exists
        and we already use that).

2003-06-21  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * doc/find.texi:
        Indicate that xargs stops immediately if a command exits with status 255

        * xargs/xargs.1:
        Document the fact that xargs exits immediately with an error message
        if the command it executes exits with a status of 255.

2003-06-18  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * find/find.1:
        Indicate that -fls and friends always create their output file

2003-06-16  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        * ChangeLog, find/find.1, locate/locate.1, locate/locatedb.5, locate/updatedb.1, xargs/xargs.1:
        Added BUGS section to manual pages.   This section includes information about known bugs and how to report new bugs.

        * AUTHORS: Identify the current maintainer.

        * TODO: Removed the TODO items which have now been done.

        * THANKS: Added Bruno Haible and Bob Proulx.

        * xargs/xargs.c: xargs/xargs.c (DO_MULTIBYTE): New macro.
        (mbstrstr): New function.
        (do_insert): Use it instead of strstr.

        * config.guess, config.sub:
        Use config.guess and config.sub from automake

        * find/fstype.c:
        Bruno Haible: (fstype_to_string) Don't define this function if
        HAVE_F_FSTYPENAME_IN_STATFS is defined.

        * configure.in:
        Bruno Haible: Prefer the 4.4BSD API (if present) to the 4.3BSD API,
        because some 4.4BSD systems have <mntent.h> but no /etc/mtab file.

        * doc/find.texi, find/find.1:
        Applied patch 1498 (documenting the backslash escape sequence)

        * locate/updatedb.sh: Applied (my own version of) Savannah patch 1601.

        * doc/find.texi:
        Applied Savannah patch #1547 (document the fact that printf
        field-width specifiers are supported).

        * xargs/xargs.c:
        Applied Savannah patch #1499 (adds final newline to usage message).

2003-06-14  James Youngman  <jay@gnu.org>

        also need stpcpy (e.g. for Solaris)

        * intl/dcigettext.c:
        plural_lookup: don't use a variable called "index", because we may
        have done "#define strchr index", in which case using a variable
        called index will prevent us calling strchr(p, ch) in the same scope.

        * m4/Makefile.am:
        reflects addition of codeset.m4 from gettext-0.10.38, automatically
        generated.

        * m4/codeset.m4, m4/gettext.m4, m4/glibc21.m4, m4/iconv.m4,
                m4/isc-posix.m4, m4/lcmessage.m4, m4/progtest.m4: *

        * ChangeLog: *** empty log message ***

        * THANKS: added "Gerrit P. Haase" <gerrit.haase@t-online.de>

        * m4/ChangeLog, locate/testsuite/.cvsignore,
        xargs/testsuite/.cvsignore, config.h.in, configure, aclocal.m4,
        doc/.cvsignore: *** empty log message ***

        * m4/jm-macros.m4:      * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): add jm_FSTYPENAME

        * doc/Makefile.in: *** empty log message ***

        * doc/Makefile.am:
        * doc/Makefile.am (MOSTLYCLEANFILES): add find.cps, which is
        created by dvips.  This should be taken care of by automake, but
        the code is commented out.

2001-06-09  Kevin Dalley  <kevin@seti.org>

        * ABOUT-NLS: updated from gettext-0.10.38.

        * configure.in: add tr to ALL_LINGUAS.

        * doc/Makefile.am (MOSTLYCLEANFILES): add find.cps, which is
        created by dvips.  This should be taken care of by automake, but
        the code is commented out.

2001-06-05  Kevin Dalley  <kevin@seti.org>

        * locate/updatedb.sh: replace "whoami" with "id -u" when testing
        for root.

2001-06-04  Kevin Dalley  <kevin@seti.org>

        * locate/testsuite/Makefile.am (DIST_SUBDIRS): remove second
        instance of DIST_SUBDIRS.

        * locate/Makefile.am (install-data-hook): changed install target
        to install-data-hook, which still installs other files.

        * doc/Makefile.am (MOSTLYCLEANFILES): added find.cps, which should
        probably be handled by automake.

        * doc/mdate-sh: removed file in doc directory.  It now exists only
        in top_srcdir, but this changed required a patch to automake.

2001-05-20  Kevin Dalley  <kevin@seti.org>

        * Version 4.1.7
        
        * lib/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): add strcasecmp.c

        * find/testsuite/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): new tests:
        find.gnu/name-opt.exp find.gnu/perm.exp find.gnu/perm.xo
        find.gnu/prune-default-print.exp find.gnu/prune-default-print.xo

        * configure.in: update to 4.1.7

        * config.sub, config.guess: upgraded to recent versions of
        config.sub and config.guess.

        * locate/updatedb.sh: Add space to "#! /bin/sh"

        * lib/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST):  getline.[ch] added
        (libfind_a_SOURCES): getline.[ch] removed since getline.c is not
        always needed.

2001-05-20  Lionel CONS <lionel.cons@cern.ch>

        * find/find.c: Fixed security holes.  1.  There is a race
        condition between the lstat() to detect a symbolic link and the
        actual chdir().  2.  An attacker can move directories while find
        is _inside_ so that chdir(..) goes out of the intended file tree.

        * lib/modetype.h: support for Solaris door files is added.

        * lib/filemode.c: S_ISDOOR is undef'ed if STAT_MACROS_BROKEN

        * find/pred.c (pred_type): -D option (for Solaris door files) is
        added.

        * find/parser.c (insert_type):  -D option (for Solaris door files)
        is added. 

        * find/find.1: -D option (for Solaris door files) is documented

        * doc/find.texi (Type): -D option (for Solaris door files) is
        documented

2001-05-02  Kevin Dalley  <kevin@seti.org>

        * configure.in: Change AC_CHECK_MEMBERS to conform to new
        autoconf.  Add Danish.

2001-01-20  Kevin Dalley  <kevin@seti.org>

        * doc/find.texi (Adding Tests): Place space in "#! /bin/sh".

        * find/testsuite/find.gnu/prune-default-print.xo,
        find/testsuite/find.gnu/prune-default-print.exp: test for "find
        . -prune" which passes after changes.  Also see name-opt.exp.

        * find/util.c (get_new_pred):
        * find/tree.c (set_new_parent):
        * find/parser.c (various parse functions):
        * find/find.c (main): 
        (default_prints): new function 
        * find/defs.h (struct predicate): added no_default_print
        side_effects are no separated from no_default_print.  predicates
        which cause side effects should not be reordered (optimized).
        predicates which cause printing should have printing turned off.
        Printing statements also cause side effects.

2000-10-29  Bruno Haible <haible@ilog.fr>

        * locate/code.c (main), doc/find.texi: improve handling of
        non-ASCII characters used old format.

2000-10-21  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

        If open + fchdir fails, fall back on xgetcwd + chdir.
        The old code tested for this at compile-time,
        but SunOS 4.1.4 fchdir can fail at run-time.

        * find/defs.h (fchdir): Define to -1 if not available.
        * find/defs.h (starting_dir, starting_desc):
        Always declare.  starting_dir now points to const.
        * find/find.c (starting_dir, starting_desc): Likewise.
        * find/find.c (starting_dir):
        Now "." if starting_desc is nonnegative, for benefit of diagnostics.
        (main, process_top_path, process_dir):
        If open + fchdir fails, fall back on xgetcwd + chdir.
        * find/pred.c (launch): Likewise.

        struct stat.st_blksize.

        * m4/strftime.m4 (jm_FUNC_GNU_STRFTIME): Set environment variable

        we don't need acconfig.h.
        (AC_CHECK_TYPE): Add ssize_t.

        * find/defs.h: Include <config.h>, <sys/types.h>, <sys/stat.h>,
        <stdio.h>, <limits.h>, <inttypes.h>.  All includers changed to not
        include these files, and to include "defs.h" first (since config.h
        must be included first).
        (CHAR_BIT, S_ISUID, S_ISGID, S_ISVTX, S_IRUSR, S_IWUSR, S_IXUSR,
        S_IRGRP, S_IWGRP, S_IXGRP, S_IROTH, S_IWOTH, S_IXOTH, MOD_WXUSR,
        MODE_R, MODE_RW, MODE_RWX, MODE_ALL): New macros.
        (enum permissions_type): New enum.

        * find/find.c: Include <human.h>, <savedir.h>.
        (output_block_size, start_time): New vars.

        * find/fstype.c: Include "dirname.h".
        (xatoi): Remove.
        (filesystem_type_uncached): Use xstrtoumax instead of xatoi.

        uintmax_t, not unsigned long.
        (parse_amin, parse_cmin, parse_mmin, parse_used, insert_time):
        Keep track of whether time was negative before converting it to an
        unsigned type.
        (parse_daystart): Don't assume that localtime succeeds; e.g. it
        can fail with 64-bit time_t and 32-bit tm_year.
        (parse_perm, insert_type): Compute using mode_t, not unsigned
        long.
        (insert_type): Use symbolic constants like MODE_ALL instead of
        traditional ones like 07777.  Set new kind member to indicate
        permissions type, instead of using unportable magic numbers.
        (make_segment): We will use human_readable to convert most numeric
        values, so simplify the cases.
        (get_num_days): Write in terms of get_num, to avoid duplicated
        code.
        (insert_time, insert_num): When debugging, convert large values to
        uintmax_t and output with %ju.
        (get_num): Use xstrtoumax to do the real work.

        * find/pred.c: Include "basename.h", "human.h".
        (DEV_BSIZE, ST_BLKSIZE, ST_NBLOCKSIZE): New macros, taken from

        (ST_NBLOCKS): Replace with fileutils defn.
        (MAX): New macro.
        (ctime_format): New function.
        (pred_fprintf, format_date): Use human_readable to output large
        numbers portably.
        (pred_fprintf): Use ctime_format to output ctime-style dates.  Use
        base_name to compute the base name of a path.  With %m, output the
        mode portably using traditional numbers, even if the host uses
        some other numbering scheme.
        (pred_iname, pred_name): basename -> base_name.
        (pred_perm): Use new kind member to deduce permissions type,
        instead of relying on magic numbers.
        (pred_size): Compute using uintmax_t, not unsigned long.  Avoid
        overflow if file size is near the maximum.
        (pred_type): Compute using mode_t, not unsigned long.
        (launch): Use waitpid, not wait.  Check for EINTR.
        (format_date): Don't assume that localtime succeeds.
