41 | <para>This package has an issue when compiled against versions of |
---|
42 | Glibc later than 2.3.2. Some of the Coreutils utilities (such as |
---|
43 | <command>head</command>, <command>tail</command>, and |
---|
44 | <command>sort</command>) will reject their traditional syntax, a |
---|
45 | syntax that has been in use for approximately 30 years. This old |
---|
46 | syntax is so pervasive that compatibility should be preserved until |
---|
47 | the many places where it is used can be updated. Backwards compatibility |
---|
48 | is achieved by setting the <envar>DEFAULT_POSIX2_VERSION</envar> |
---|
49 | environment variable to <quote>199209</quote> in the above command. |
---|
50 | If you do not want Coreutils to be backwards compatible with the |
---|
51 | traditional syntax, then omit setting the |
---|
52 | <envar>DEFAULT_POSIX2_VERSION</envar> environment variable. It is |
---|
53 | important to remember that doing so will have consequences, including |
---|
54 | the need to patch the many packages that still use the old syntax. |
---|
55 | Therefore, it is recommended that the instructions be followed exactly |
---|
56 | as given above.</para> |
