#coreutils

Prefiero la GPL a la MIT, pero si #uutils supera a #coreutils en seguridad, merece la pena considerarlo. Siempre podemos aplicarle una GPL si llega a ser necesario.

Muchos componentes clave o superutilizados como Xorg, Wayland, Vim y Neovim también usan MIT o Apache.

Relajaos, el #SoftwareLibre está fuerte. Y vamos a dar mucha guerra, de la buena.

Continued thread

Now #uutil is going to replace #coreutils ? Not trusting that one bit.

The core utilities of any given #operatingsystem, as well as the kernel, display protocol, etc, etc, etc should NEVER be up to #liberal #licensing like #MIT or #BSD.

For total power to the user, the fundamental technological stack should be #copyleft, because we should have #legal expectations towards vendors.

This is also from the system that brought you #snaps. #canonical wants a #walledgarden and it shows.

#GNU #coreutils 9.6 is out:

A few highlights:

* cksum -a now supports the "crc32b" option

* ls now supports the --sort=name option

* printf now supports indexed arguments

* test supports the POSIX:2024 specified '<' and '>' operators with strings

* cksum -a crc, makes use of AVX2, AVX512, and ARMv8 SIMD extensions

* wc now reads a minimum of 256KiB at a time […] was seen to increase wc -l performance by about 10% when reading cached files on modern systems.
