1400
1401 util-linux 2.9:
1402
1403 HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.9:
1404
1405 1) Removed programs:
1406    - strings. There is a version in binutils.
1407    - frag. (Moved to historic in 2.4, crept back in 2.5. Gone again.)
1408 1a) Not yet removed program:
1409    - setfdprm. It also is in fdutils-5.2 (with an exceptionally
1410      ugly man page).
1411 1b) Removed directory:
1412    - bsd. (The routine getopt() is in libc. err() moved to lib.)
1413 2) Improvements:
1414    - ddate has been fixed to count down to the new, right X-day
1415    - look is now willing to search non-English dictionaries
1416      (i.e., uses locale)
1417    - cal now knows that Dutch day abbreviations have length 2 only
1418    - mcookie does not block when no random stuff is available
1419    - shutdown got a configuration file /etc/shutdown.conf
1420    - fdisk now reads SGI disk labels (thanks to Andreas Neuper)
1421    - mkswap now knows about new swap areas; mkswap.8 has been rewritten
1422    - umount knows about umount2() and forced unmounting of nfs mounts
1423      (however, I don't think it really works)
1424    - mount is now willing to handle file names with embedded spaces
1425    - mount can now mount things by UUID or volume name
1426 3) Uglifications:
1427    - swap.h has been replaced by a private swap_constants.h since
1428      <linux/swap.h> does not compile
1429    - reboot has become a private routine, since libc5 and glibc2 conflict
1430    - a mkminix-0.1 directory contains some patches to let mkfs.minix
1431      work under DOS. (Untested.)
1432 4) Numerous other small changes.
1433
1434 0xF) Send questions and/or patches to util-linux@math.uio.no
1435
1436 util-linux 2.9 was released by Andries Brouwer - aeb@cwi.nl
1437 The address util-linux@math.uio.no reaches Rik, Andries, Peter,
1438 Michael, Erik, Nicolai and possibly others.  Hwclock stuff is
1439 forwarded to Bryan.
1440
1441 util-linux 2.8:
1442
1443 HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.8:
1444
1445 1) New programs:
1446    - getopt(1) by Frodo Looijaard replaces the older bsd based version.
1447      Keywords: Backward compatible, supports --long options.
1448 1) Removed programs:
1449    - chroot: is no longer in util-linux.  Get it free with GNU sh-utils
1450    - hostid: No-one could figure out the right way for this program to
1451                 work.  Another hostid program is included in poeigl
1452                 (see the LSM, Primary-site: ftp.daimi.aau.dk /pub/linux/poe)
1453 2) Various portability enhancements.  Among other things hwclock now works
1454    a lot better on non Intel architectures.  Should compile with libc 4, 5
1455    and 6 as well as old and recent kernels.  People using non-intel hardware
1456    are encouraged to send patches.
1457 3) rev now only limits linelength to memory capacity
1458 4) dmesg now uses a buffer that matches the kernel buffer in size (8KB)
1459
1460
1461 util-linux 2.7:
1462
1463 HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.7:
1464
1465 1) util-linux now _requires_ ncurses.  Several programs are completely
1466    converted to use terminfo (instead of termcap).
1467
1468 2) Removed programs:
1469    - clock: Dropped entirely.  Use hwclock (included).
1470    - sync: is in gnu fileutils.
1471    - setserial: Is being maintained by Ted Ts'o, he recommends
1472         setserial-2.12 (2.13 is bad luck)
1473    - clear: Included in ncurses
1474    - hostname, domainname, dnsdomainname: It's in net-utils.
1475    - lpcntl.
1476
1477 3) Bugfixes, additions:
1478    - cfdisk: A much improved version. All known bugs have been fixed.
1479    - sfdisk: A command line fdisk type utility, formerly called fdisk-3.04.
1480    - SECURITY: All known holes in login, chfn, chsh and others have been
1481      plugged.  UPGRADE NOW if you haven't already fixed them yourself.
1482    - Should work with libc 4, 5 and 6 (gnulibc), on m68k, intel, alpha
1483      and sparc.
1484
1485 4) Problems:
1486    - The rpcgen that comes in NetKit-B-0.09 is broken.  At least as
1487      packaged with RedHat 4.2 (NetKit-B-0.09-6).  There are several
1488      ways to deal with this:
1489      - Don't run rpcgen, the needed pre-generated sources are included
1490        (nfsmount_xdr.c).  You must hack mount/Makefile to do this.
1491      - Edit the source emitted by rpcgen so it can compile.  This is very
1492        simple if you know C.
1493      - Disable the NFS parts of mount.  You have to edit mount/Makefile
1494        to do this.
1495      - Use some other rpcgen.
1496
1497 util-linux 2.6.1
1498
1499 This release was never made public
1500
1501 See notes for 2.6 for installation instructions.
1502
1503 This is a incremental release containing some fixes.  A new release
1504 will be made later fixing the outstanding bugs.
1505 - Things compiles and works better with recent releases of kernel,
1506   ncurses, and so forth: fdisk, more
1507 - Some fixes to make things compile out of the box on alphas.
1508 - There has been reported a problem with login and /etc/usertty.  It
1509   should be fixed.  If you still have problems get a recent MAKEDEV and
1510   use it to make new tty devices.  They were renumbered sometime during
1511   the 1.3 phase of the kernel.
1512 - ipcs now displays the key of the structures.
1513 - A (harmless?) overflow bug was fixed in login.
1514
1515 Outstanding bugs:
1516 - login/getty has a denial of service problem.
1517 - Several places needs a bit more polish.
1518 - There are a _lot_ of nonfatal warnings when compiling mount.  This will
1519   not necessarily be fixed.
1520
1521
1522 util-linux 2.6
1523
1524 HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.6:
1525
1526 0) The first release with me at the helm.  PLEASE SEND PATCHES AND
1527    UPDATES TO: util-linux@math.uio.no.
1528
1529 1) Removed programs:
1530    - md5sum, dsplit: available in GNU textutils.
1531    - syslogd: Sysklogd is now preferred.  It is available at
1532         tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/sources/sbin
1533         sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/Daemons
1534
1535 2) Bugfixes, additions:
1536    - SECURITY: All known holes in mount have been fixed.  UPGRADE NOW
1537      if you haven't already!
1538    - Portability enhancements to the minix filesystem utils (m68k and
1539      Arm patches).
1540    - passwd/chsh/chfn will not mess up the passwd file on a NIS machine
1541    - others too numerous to enumerate.
1542
1543 3) New programs:
1544    - vigr (it's like vipw)
1545    - Introducing hwclock.  A complete rewrite of the latest available
1546      clock source.  It supports intel/CMOS, /dev/rtc and linux/m68k
1547      system clock interfaces.  Clock supports the same things but is now
1548      obsolete and will not be present in the next release.  Start using
1549      hwclock now.  Please.
1550
1551
1552 util-linux 2.5
1553
1554 HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.5:
1555 0) Nicolai Langfeldt is taking over maintenance of util-linux, with the
1556    help of a few others (Michael K. Johnson, Andries Brouwer, and Rik
1557    Faith).
1558
1559    PLEASE SEND PATCHES AND UPDATES TO: util-linux@math.uio.no
1560
1561 1) The following packages have been removed.  Please use the up-to-date,
1562    canonical versions of these packages from the listed places:
1563
1564     timezone support (/usr/lib/zoneinfo, libz.a, zic, zdump):
1565         elsie.nci.nih.gov:/pub/tzcode95d.tar.gz
1566         elsie.nci.nih.gov:/pub/tzdata95h.tar.gz
1567     MAKEDEV-C:
1568         sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/Admin/MAKEDEV-C-1.5.tar.gz
1569     MAKEDEV:
1570         sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/Admin/MAKEDEV-2.2.tar.gz
1571     md5sum:
1572         prep.ai.mit.edu:/pub/gnu/textutils-1.3.tar.gz
1573         [The GNU version is now compatible with the Plumb/Lankester
1574         version.]
1575     ksymoops:
1576         Now bundled with the kernel in linux/scripts.
1577
1578 2) update_state has been removed
1579 3) fdisk now supports NetBSD disklabels courtesy of Bernhard Fastenrath
1580    <fasten@athene.informatik.uni-bonn.de> (and > 8GB disks, courtesy of
1581    Andries Brouwer)
1582 4) mount improved -- many patches from Andries Brouwer for greatly improved
1583    error reporting
1584 5) ddate, chkdupexe, and other programs have been improved and bug fixed
1585 6) util-linux is now a source-only distribution
1586 7) mcookie generates better random numbers and will use /dev/random or
1587    /dev/audio if available
1588 8) chfn, chsh, passwd, and vipw have been updated with security patches
1589    from Zefram <A.Main@dcs.warwick.ac.uk>.  Now, they all use the same
1590    locking, and several security holes have been patched.  Further, chsh
1591    and chfn can be configured at compile time to require a password before
1592    updates and chsh can be configured to only use shells from /etc/shells.
1593
1594
1595 HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.4 (2.3 was never released):
1596 0) Michael K. Johnson <johnsonm@nigel.vnet.net> is the interim maintainer
1597    while Rik Faith is working on PhD work.
1598 1) login now makes the login tty mode 600 and places it in group "tty"
1599 2) wall, and write will not write dangerous escape sequences
1600 3) wall and write can be run setgid "tty".  If util-linux is compiled for
1601    this option, "mesg y" will only set group write instead of group/other
1602    write.
1603 4) fdisk and cfdisk have been patched with the latest llseek.c.  Although I
1604    had a lot of bug reports about fdisk from util-linux-2.2, I was unable
1605    to reproduce any of the problems.  Some of the problems appeared to be
1606    related to a failure to reboot the machine after changing the partition
1607    table, and some may have been due to a specific kernel revision problem.
1608    However, this doesn't seem to account for all of the bug reports -- if
1609    this version gives you problem, please send as complete a bug report as
1610    possible.
1611 5) chkdupexe from Nicolai Langfeldt (janl@ifi.uio.no)
1612 6) ctrlaltdel now installs into /sbin instead of /usr/sbin
1613 7) mkfs replacement from Ron Sommeling (sommel@sci.kun.nl)
1614 8) lpcntl removed.  Use tunelp instead.
1615 9) ksymoops from Greg McGary <gkm@magilla.cichlid.com>
1616 10) mkfs.minix now clears the first 512 bytes of the file system so that
1617     Minix disks won't be confused with MSDOS disks (Daniel Quinlan
1618     (quinlan@yggdrasil.com))
1619 11) mkswap should now work on an Alpha running Linux
1620 12) frag removed.  See
1621     sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/Filesystems/defrag-0.6.tar.gz for the
1622     latest version.
1623 13) mount patches from Andries.Brouwer@cwi.nl and Dan Quinlan
1624     (quinlan@yggdrasil.com).
1625 14) MAKEDEV and MAKEDEV-C updated to the latest versions.
1626 15) Paths updated for FSSTND 1.2.  This means that you may need to make
1627     some links.  The links you need to make we system dependent.  The
1628     ultimate goal is to rename /var/adm to /var/log and have a symbolic
1629     link from /var/adm to /var/log during the transition period.  If you
1630     are running an ELF system, you probably won't have to do anything.  The
1631     bottom line is that the following files must exist or be pointers to
1632     the old version (used internally by the a.out libraries):
1633
1634              New                 Old
1635
1636         /var/log/wtmp       /var/adm/wtmp
1637         /var/log/lastlog    /var/adm/lastlog
1638         /var/run/utmp       /var/adm/utmp
1639
1640 HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.2:
1641 1) This is primarily a quick bug-fix release for version 2.1
1642 2) mkfs wrapper added back in, since e2fsprogs only supplies an fsck wrapper
1643 3) selection removed, since someone appears to be maintaining it now.  See
1644    sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/linux/kernel/patches/console for recent sources.
1645    For the time being, I'm keeping a copy in the historic subdirectory of
1646    util-linux.  A "make install" should work find from within that
1647    directory.
1648 4) Note that other floppy utilities are available from:
1649     ftp.imag.fr:pub/Linux/ZLIBC/fdutils/fdutils-4.1.src.tar.gz
1650     sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/Misc/fdutils-4.1.src.tar.gz
1651     tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/linux/sources/sbin/fdutils-4.1.src.tar.gz
1652
1653
1654 HIGHLIGHTS for version 2.1:
1655
1656 1) Directory structure rearrange, with configuration support for those who
1657    use shadow passwords and System V init (no support is provided for these
1658    things, but your utilities won't get overwritten if you do a "make
1659    install" after you properly edit MCONFIG).
1660 2) fdisk and cfdisk should work as expected with 2GB+ disk drives
1661 3) As usual, lots of stuff was updated and added, including mount, vipw,
1662    readprofile
1663 4) Some stuff was also deleted, and can now be found elsewhere:
1664     fsck wrapper: tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/linux/ALPHA/ext2fs/e2fsprogs*
1665     pwd, su: prep.ai.mit.edu:/pub/gnu/sh-utils*
1666     ed: prep.ai.mit.edu:/pub/gnu/ed*
1667     od: prep.ai.mit.edu:/pub/gnu/textutils*

1673 PARTIAL HISTORY OF UTIL-LINUX:
1674
1675 bsd:

1687             ftp.cs.unc.edu:/pub/users/martin/linux/cfdisk-0.8.tar.gz
1688     fdformat: Werner Almesberger (almesber@nessie.cs.id.ethz.ch), with
1689               modifications by Marcel Mol (marcel@dutecad.et.tudelft.nl)).

1801     Rick Sladkey put together the mount-0.99.6.tar.Z package, and Stephen
1802     Tweedie provided updates.  The utilities were originally from that
1803     package (all appear to be by Doug Quale (quale@saavik.cs.wisc.edu),
1804     with modifications by H. J. Lu (hlu@eecs.wsu.edu) on 11/25/92; Rick
1805     Sladkey (jrs@world.std.com) in January 1993; and Stephen Tweedie
1806     <sct@dcs.ed.ac.uk> on 8 October 1993.  This distribution mount now
1807     supports NFS stuff.  I have modified the man pages.  I have also added
1808     a small patch from Hamish Glen Coleman (t933093@minyos.xx.rmit.OZ.AU)
1809     which restores the -o semantics.
1810
1811     Updated with Rick Sladkey's mount-0.99.14.tar.gz package, and with
1812     extra patches from Rick.  Adam J. Richter allowed -t option to be
1813     optional. Patrick J. Volkerding (volkerdi@mhd1.moorhead.msus.edu) and
1814     Mitchum DSouza both provided patches that fixed the (null) problem when
1815     not using -t. Mitchum DSouza
1816     (mitch@mrc-applied-psychology.cambridge.ac.uk) added support for loop
1817     device mounts. Sebastian Lederer
1818     (lederer@next-pc.informatik.uni-bonn.de) added support for sending an
1819     unmount RPC call to the server when an NFS-filesystem is unmounted.
1820     Sander van Malssen (svm@kozmix.hacktic.nl) added support for remounting
1821     readonly file systems readonly.  Mike Grupenhoff
1822     <kashmir@umiacs.UMD.EDU> added a probe of the superblock for the type
1823     before /proc/filesystems is checked.  Andries.Brouwer@cwi.nl fixed up
1824     error reporting.
1825
1826     Updated with patches from Andries.Brouwer@cwi.nl and Dan Quinlan
1827     (quinlan@yggdrasil.com).  And more patches from Andries and others.

1831     Kernel patches are no longer necessary for modern kernels, but these
1832     were tiny so I left them in for historical reasons.  The Makefile was
1833     modified for this distribution.  With changes from Rick Sladkey.
