RHBA-2005:194 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
coreutils bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated coreutils package that resolves LSB conformance issues is now
available.
Description
The coreutils package contains core GNU utilities. It is the combination
of the old GNU fileutils, sh-utils, and textutils packages. The sort
command sorts lines of text files.
Previously, the sort command had problems with LSB conformance, including
problems handling multi-byte characters in field separators. These have
now been fixed.
All users of coreutils should upgrade to this updated package, which
resolves these issues.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied. Use Red Hat
Network to download and update your packages. To launch the Red Hat
