Subject: md5sum: fix --text with the MSYS2 runtime
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6f265b515e5b93cef9bef0c4994622574c55a1ba;p=thirdparty%2Fcoreutils.git

md5sum: fix --text with the MSYS2 runtime

Note the use of "rt" is non-standard, but we're restricting
its use here to systems that define O_BINARY, which should
invariably support "rt" mode.

* src/digest.c (): Where significant, explicitly use "rt" mode
with --text, as MSYS2 defaults to binary mode for fopen'd files
(though not for standard streams).
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
