1158 - strings. There is a version in binutils.
1159 - frag. (Moved to historic in 2.4, crept back in 2.5. Gone again.)
1160 1a) Not yet removed program:
1161 - setfdprm. It also is in fdutils-5.2 (with an exceptionally
1163 1b) Removed directory:
1164 - bsd. (The routine getopt() is in libc. err() moved to lib.)
1166 - ddate has been fixed to count down to the new, right X-day
1167 - look is now willing to search non-English dictionaries
1169 - cal now knows that Dutch day abbreviations have length 2 only
1170 - mcookie does not block when no random stuff is available
1171 - shutdown got a configuration file /etc/shutdown.conf
1172 - fdisk now reads SGI disk labels (thanks to Andreas Neuper)
1173 - mkswap now knows about new swap areas; mkswap.8 has been rewritten
1174 - umount knows about umount2() and forced unmounting of nfs mounts
1175 (however, I don't think it really works)
1176 - mount is now willing to handle file names with embedded spaces
1177 - mount can now mount things by UUID or volume name
1179 - swap.h has been replaced by a private swap_constants.h since
1180 <linux/swap.h> does not compile
1181 - reboot has become a private routine, since libc5 and glibc2 conflict
1182 - a mkminix-0.1 directory contains some patches to let mkfs.minix
1183 work under DOS. (Untested.)
1184 4) Numerous other small changes.
1186 0xF) Send questions and/or patches to util-linux@math.uio.no
1188 util-linux 2.9 was released by Andries Brouwer - aeb@cwi.nl
1189 The address util-linux@math.uio.no reaches Rik, Andries, Peter,
1190 Michael, Erik, Nicolai and possibly others. Hwclock stuff is
1195 HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.8:
1198 - getopt(1) by Frodo Looijaard replaces the older bsd based version.
1199 Keywords: Backward compatible, supports --long options.
1200 1) Removed programs:
1201 - chroot: is no longer in util-linux. Get it free with GNU sh-utils
1202 - hostid: No-one could figure out the right way for this program to
1203 work. Another hostid program is included in poeigl
1204 (see the LSM, Primary-site: ftp.daimi.aau.dk /pub/linux/poe)
1205 2) Various portability enhancements. Among other things hwclock now works
1206 a lot better on non Intel architectures. Should compile with libc 4, 5
1207 and 6 as well as old and recent kernels. People using non-intel hardware
1208 are encouraged to send patches.
1209 3) rev now only limits linelength to memory capacity
1210 4) dmesg now uses a buffer that matches the kernel buffer in size (8KB)
1215 HIGLIGHTS for version 2.7:
1217 1) util-linux now _requires_ ncurses. Several programs are completely
1218 converted to use terminfo (instead of termcap).
1221 - clock: Dropped entirely. Use hwclock (included).
1222 - sync: is in gnu fileutils.
1223 - setserial: Is being maintained by Ted Ts'o, he recommends
1224 setserial-2.12 (2.13 is bad luck)
1225 - clear: Included in ncurses
1226 - hostname, domainname, dnsdomainname: It's in net-utils.
1229 3) Bugfixes, additions:
1230 - cfdisk: A much improved version. All known bugs have been fixed.
1231 - sfdisk: A command line fdisk type utility, formerly called fdisk-3.04.
1232 - SECURITY: All known holes in login, chfn, chsh and others have been
1233 plugged. UPGRADE NOW if you haven't already fixed them yourself.
1234 - Should work with libc 4, 5 and 6 (gnulibc), on m68k, intel, alpha
1238 - The rpcgen that comes in NetKit-B-0.09 is broken. At least as
1239 packaged with RedHat 4.2 (NetKit-B-0.09-6). There are several
1240 ways to deal with this:
1241 - Don't run rpcgen, the needed pre-generated sources are included
1242 (nfsmount_xdr.c). You must hack mount/Makefile to do this.
1243 - Edit the source emitted by rpcgen so it can compile. This is very
1244 simple if you know C.
1245 - Disable the NFS parts of mount. You have to edit mount/Makefile
1247 - Use some other rpcgen.
1251 This release was never made public
1253 See notes for 2.6 for installation instructions.
1255 This is a incremental release containing some fixes. A new release
1256 will be made later fixing the outstanding bugs.
1257 - Things compiles and works better with recent releases of kernel,
1258 ncurses, and so forth: fdisk, more
1259 - Some fixes to make things compile out of the box on alphas.
1260 - There has been reported a problem with login and /etc/usertty. It
1261 should be fixed. If you still have problems get a recent MAKEDEV and
1262 use it to make new tty devices. They were renumbered sometime during
1263 the 1.3 phase of the kernel.
1264 - ipcs now displays the key of the structures.
1265 - A (harmless?) overflow bug was fixed in login.
1268 - login/getty has a denial of service problem.
1269 - Several places needs a bit more polish.
1270 - There are a _lot_ of nonfatal warnings when compiling mount. This will
1271 not necesarily be fixed.
1276 HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.6:
1278 0) The first release with me at the helm. PLEASE SEND PATCHES AND
1279 UPDATES TO: util-linux@math.uio.no.
1281 1) Removed programs:
1282 - md5sum, dsplit: available in GNU textutils.
1283 - syslogd: Sysklogd is now prefered. It is available at
1284 tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/sources/sbin
1285 sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/Daemons
1287 2) Bugfixes, additions:
1288 - SECURITY: All known holes in mount have been fixed. UPGRADE NOW
1289 if you haven't already!
1290 - Portability enhancments to the minix filesystem utils (m68k and
1292 - passwd/chsh/chfn will not mess up the passwd file on a NIS machine
1293 - others too numerous to enumerate.
1296 - vigr (it's like vipw)
1297 - Introducing hwclock. A complete rewrite of the latest available
1298 clock source. It supports intel/CMOS, /dev/rtc and linux/m68k
1299 system clock interfaces. Clock supports the same things but is now
1300 obsolete and will not be present in the next release. Start using
1301 hwclock now. Please.
1306 HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.5:
1307 0) Nicolai Langfeldt is taking over maintenance of util-linux, with the
1308 help of a few others (Michael K. Johnson, Andries Brouwer, and Rik
1311 PLEASE SEND PATCHES AND UPDATES TO: util-linux@math.uio.no
1313 1) The following packages have been removed. Please use the up-to-date,
1314 canonical versions of these packages from the listed places:
1316 timezone support (/usr/lib/zoneinfo, libz.a, zic, zdump):
1317 elsie.nci.nih.gov:/pub/tzcode95d.tar.gz
1318 elsie.nci.nih.gov:/pub/tzdata95h.tar.gz
1320 sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/Admin/MAKEDEV-C-1.5.tar.gz
1322 sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/Admin/MAKEDEV-2.2.tar.gz
1324 prep.ai.mit.edu:/pub/gnu/textutils-1.3.tar.gz
1325 [The GNU version is now compatible with the Plumb/Lankester
1328 Now bundled with the kernel in linux/scripts.
1330 2) update_state has been removed
1331 3) fdisk now supports NetBSD disklabels courtesy of Bernhard Fastenrath
1332 <fasten@athene.informatik.uni-bonn.de> (and > 8GB disks, courtesy of
1334 4) mount improved -- many patches from Andries Brouwer for greatly improved
1336 5) ddate, chkdupexe, and other programs have been improved and bug fixed
1337 6) util-linux is now a source-only distribution
1338 7) mcookie generates better random numbers and will use /dev/random or
1339 /dev/audio if available
1340 8) chfn, chsh, passwd, and vipw have been updated with security patches
1341 from Zefram <A.Main@dcs.warwick.ac.uk>. Now, they all use the same
1342 locking, and several security holes have been patched. Further, chsh
1343 and chfn can be configured at compile time to require a password before
1344 updates and chsh can be configured to only use shells from /etc/shells.
1347 HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.4 (2.3 was never released):
1348 0) Michael K. Johnson <johnsonm@nigel.vnet.net> is the interim maintainer
1349 while Rik Faith is working on PhD work.
1350 1) login now makes the login tty mode 600 and places it in group "tty"
1351 2) wall, and write will not write dangerous escape sequences
1352 3) wall and write can be run setgid "tty". If util-linux is compiled for
1353 this option, "mesg y" will only set group write instead of group/other
1355 4) fdisk and cfdisk have been patched with the latest llseek.c. Although I
1356 had a lot of bug reports about fdisk from util-linux-2.2, I was unable
1357 to reproduce any of the problems. Some of the problems appeared to be
1358 releated to a failure to reboot the machine after changing the partition
1359 table, and some may have been due to a specific kernel revision problem.
1360 However, this doesn't seem to account for all of the bug reports -- if
1361 this version gives you problem, please send as complete a bug report as
1363 5) chkdupexe from Nicolai Langfeldt (janl@ifi.uio.no)
1364 6) ctrlaltdel now installs into /sbin instead of /usr/sbin
1365 7) mkfs replacement from Ron Sommeling (sommel@sci.kun.nl)
1366 8) lpcntl removed. Use tunelp instead.
1367 9) ksymoops from Greg McGary <gkm@magilla.cichlid.com>
1368 10) mkfs.minix now clears the first 512 bytes of the file system so that
1369 Minix disks won't be confused with MSDOS disks (Daniel Quinlan
1370 (quinlan@yggdrasil.com))
1371 11) mkswap should now work on an Alpha running Linux
1372 12) frag removed. See
1373 sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/Filesystems/defrag-0.6.tar.gz for the
1375 13) mount patches from Andries.Brouwer@cwi.nl and Dan Quinlan
1376 (quinlan@yggdrasil.com).
1377 14) MAKEDEV and MAKEDEV-C updated to the latest versions.
1378 15) Paths updated for FSSTND 1.2. This means that you may need to make
1379 some links. The links you need to make we system dependent. The
1380 ultimate goal is to rename /var/adm to /var/log and have a symbolic
1381 link from /var/adm to /var/log during the transition period. If you
1382 are running an ELF system, you probably won't have to do anything. The
1383 bottom line is that the following files must exist or be pointers to
1384 the old version (used internally by the a.out libraries):
1388 /var/log/wtmp /var/adm/wtmp
1389 /var/log/lastlog /var/adm/lastlog
1390 /var/run/utmp /var/adm/utmp
1392 HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.2:
1393 1) This is primarily a quick bug-fix release for version 2.1
1394 2) mkfs wrapper added back in, since e2fsprogs only supplies an fsck wrapper
1395 3) selection removed, since someone appears to be maintaining it now. See
1396 sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/linux/kernel/patches/console for recent sources.
1397 For the time being, I'm keeping a copy in the historic subdirectory of
1398 util-linux. A "make install" should work find from within that
1400 4) Note that other floppy utilities are available from:
1401 ftp.imag.fr:pub/Linux/ZLIBC/fdutils/fdutils-4.1.src.tar.gz
1402 sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/Misc/fdutils-4.1.src.tar.gz
1403 tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/linux/sources/sbin/fdutils-4.1.src.tar.gz
1406 HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.1:
1408 1) Directory structure rearrange, with configuration support for those who
1409 use shadow passwords and System V init (no support is provided for these
1410 things, but your utilities won't get overwritten if you do a "make
1411 install" after you properly edit MCONFIG).
1412 2) fdisk and cfdisk should work as expected with 2GB+ disk drives
1413 3) As usual, lots of stuff was updated and added, including mount, vipw,
1415 4) Some stuff was also deleted, and can now be found elsewhere:

1553 Rick Sladkey put together the mount-0.99.6.tar.Z package, and Stephen
1554 Tweedie provided updates. The utilities were originally from that
1555 package (all appear to be by Doug Quale (quale@saavik.cs.wisc.edu),
1556 with modifications by H. J. Lu (hlu@eecs.wsu.edu) on 11/25/92; Rick
1557 Sladkey (jrs@world.std.com) in January 1993; and Stephen Tweedie
1558 <sct@dcs.ed.ac.uk> on 8 October 1993. This distribution mount now
1559 supports NFS stuff. I have modified the man pages. I have also added
1560 a small patch from Hamish Glen Coleman (t933093@minyos.xx.rmit.OZ.AU)
1561 which restores the -o semantics.
1563 Updated with Rick Sladkey's mount-0.99.14.tar.gz package, and with
1564 extra patches from Rick. Adam J. Richter allowed -t option to be
1565 optional. Patrick J. Volkerding (volkerdi@mhd1.moorhead.msus.edu) and
1566 Mitchum DSouza both provided patches that fixed the (null) problem when
1567 not using -t. Mitchum DSouza
1568 (mitch@mrc-applied-psychology.cambridge.ac.uk) added support for loop
1569 device mounts. Sebastian Lederer
1570 (lederer@next-pc.informatik.uni-bonn.de) added support for sending an
1571 unmount RPC call to the server when an NFS-filesystem is unmounted.
1572 Sander van Malssen (svm@kozmix.hacktic.nl) added support for remounting
1573 readonly file systems readonly. Mike Grupenhoff
1574 <kashmir@umiacs.UMD.EDU> added a probe of the superblock for the type
1575 before /proc/filesystems is checked. Andries.Brouwer@cwi.nl fixed up
1578 Updated with patches from Andries.Brouwer@cwi.nl and Dan Quinlan
1579 (quinlan@yggdrasil.com). And more patches from Andries and others.
1581 historic/selection: The complete selection-1.5 package, by Andrew Haylett
1582 <ajh@gec-mrc.co.uk>, 17th June 1993, is included in the historic tree.
1583 Kernel patches are no longer necessary for modern kernels, but these
1584 were tiny so I left them in for historical reasons. The Makefile was
1585 modified for this distribution. With changes from Rick Sladkey.
