Hi, coreutils-8.0 has been released but flagged beta because of some fairly large changes in rm which now uses gnulib's hierarchy traversal (= faster) and many changes to gnulib in the area of filesystem primitives. I found the snapshot before this fully usable, and will do a "make check/test" to ensure everything is working as it should. I would like to put it in [testing] _without_ the option of it every moving to [core]. I know we do this for some software, but never anything so "core" to the system that I know of. So... can I use [testing] for testing in this case? Allan
