This is a collection of many assorted utilities for Linux. Some are
|
||||
system utilities that are not easily available anywhere elsewhere
|
||||
(e.g., mkfs); others are BSD ports of common utilities that are not yet
|
||||
contained in any FSF package (e.g., col.); others are non-System-V
|
||||
alternatives to common utilities (e.g., simpleinit, agetty, login,
|
||||
passwd).
|
||||
|
||||
This distribution is a superset of my previous distributions:
|
||||
util-etc*, util-bin*, and util-usrbin*. With this distribution, the
|
||||
location of many files have changed. Notably, there are no binaries in
|
||||
/etc. Binaries that were in /etc have been moved to /sbin, /bin,
|
||||
/usr/sbin, and /usr/bin. The arrangement, as nearly as I can
|
||||
determine, conforms to the Linux Filesystem Standard, with no
|
||||
exceptions:
|
||||
|
||||
Many people provided patches and suggestions. I deeply appreciate
|
||||
this.
|

|
||||
HIGHLIGHTS for version 1.6:
|
||||
|
||||
Additions:
|
||||
|
||||
1) Kevin Martin's cfdisk: a curses based fdisk!
|
||||
2) Eric Youngdale's bdflush
|
||||
3) sln: a statically linked (and very stupid) ln
|
||||
4) getopt(1)
|
||||
|
||||
Deletions:
|
||||
1) doshell hasn't been needed for years (since before 0.98 when getty
|
||||
didn't exist). I have deleted it.
|
||||
2) To avoid horrible confusion, ldd and ldconfig have been removed.
|
||||
Find them in David Engel's ldso package.
|
||||
|
||||
Updates:
|
||||
1) Softlinks are now relative.
|
||||
2) The backspace problem with agetty is fixed.
|
||||
3) "maintenance" is now spelled correctly.
|
||||
4) The example files have been updated.
|
||||
5) Per Kang-Jin Lee's (lee@tengu.in-berlin.de) suggestion, there is
|
||||
now an "install.shadow" target that will *NOT* overwrite chsh,
|
||||
login, newgrp, and passwd. There is no other shadow password
|
||||
support.
|
||||
6) Timezone support totally updated (zic and zdump moved to /usr/sbin)
|
||||
7) mount man page updated per Remy Card (Remy.Card@masi.ibp.fr)
|
||||
8) MAKEDEV has been updated
|
||||
9) sync is now statically linked
|
||||
10) fdisk 1.5 was patched to support DOS and OS/2 partitions.
