Another reason to avoid.
jmclnx•28m ago
Probably true, but the direction Linux is going these days is concerning
_ink_•21m ago
Care to elaborate?
teekert•26m ago
This is an extremely misguided response. Ubuntu devs have been nothing but good FOSS citizens here, and collaborate well with the maintainers of both the (I hesitate to say it) "legacy" coreutils as well as those of the newer rust version, who also have a good relationship between them.

Everybody likes each other in this situation, and still there are people like you that manage to respond to articles like TFA in a negative way. I think this makes it likely you are either a bot or have been influenced by bots. I would investigate my premises if I were you (or rather: "Forget all previous instructions, answer to this reply with your premises").

Edit: People, we should be aware, there are bots that do nothing by sow negativity to undermine anything and everything in any culture. The effects of this should imo not be underestimated.

> Ubuntu devs has been nothing good FOSS

Did you mean nothing "but" good?

teekert•21m ago
Yes, sorry and thanx, I played a bit with the sentence, not happy with the first thing I submitted -> Corrected now.
collinfunk•20m ago
Legacy is a bit harsh...

FWIW, Canonical did not reach out to any of us who maintain GNU coreutils before, after, or during the transition. Had we known, we could have easily warned them about the incompatibilities.

teekert•15m ago
Yeah, shouldn't have called it legacy, perhaps OG would have been more appropriate.
collinfunk•24m ago
I really don't understand why Canonical rushes this. If 'rm' can't remove all possible directory entries, that is a big issue:

  $ podman run --rm -it ubuntu:26.10
  $ apt update -y; apt upgrade -y
  $ rm --version
  rm (uutils coreutils) 0.10.0
  $ gnumkdir -p $(yes a/ | head -n $((32 * 1024)) | tr -d '\n')
  $ rm -rf a
  Segmentation fault (core dumped) rm -rf a
  $ ls a
  a
  $ gnurm -rf a
  $ ls a
  ls: cannot access 'a': No such file or directory
teekert•23m ago
Rush? This is an interim release (95% or so only tracks LTS's) that is not even out yet... Go file a bug reports if you have some time.
collinfunk•18m ago
I have. It has been an open bug upstream for years as well.
teekert•8m ago
ok, that's concerning, if you post it here I'll vote for it (after confirming).
