ANNOUNCE: MORE BINARIES UPLOADED!

Bug reports and comments to: faith@cs.unc.edu



WHAT YOU GET WITH THESE BINARIES:

*.Notes files contain instructions for installing the binary release, and
include step by step instruction of how I built the binary release from
source.  This single file contains the name of the ftp site where I got the
package, how I compiled it, and what patches were needed, if any.  IF YOU
WANT TO COMPILE THE PACKAGE YOURSELF, THIS FILE IS ALL YOU NEED (after you
get the original source distribution, of course).  If any patches were
necessary, the *.Notes file can be fed directly to patch(1), without any
editing.

*.taz files are compressed tar archives contain binaries (linked with jump
4.1 libraries using gcc 2.2.2d7 (release version), and tested under Linux
0.99.1 with jump 4.2 libraries), man pages and/or info pages (if
available), COPYING, README, etc., files from the original source
distribution, and my:

*.Notes file, described above
*.Dist  file, which was used to built the *.taz file
*.Unins file, which will uninstall most of the binary release (it leaves
              /usr/src/* intact)

The *.taz format files are compatible with the SLS systinstall program,
which can be used to install and uninstall the binary distributions.

If you don't use the SLS program, the *.taz files are ready to 'gtar zpxvf'
into /.



WHY SOME OF THE BINARIES DUMP CORE:

All of the recent binaries were linked with gcc 2.2.2d7/jump 4.1, but on a
system with libc.so.4.2 installed.  In particular, the rcs56A.taz files
will dump core *unless* you have libc.so.4.2.  On the other hand, if you
just recompile the source distribution, it appears that it will work fine
on your system with libc.so.4.2.  Please report other problems so that I
can update the solutions.




WHERE YOU CAN GET THESE BINARIES:

*.Notes files are in the following places:
    ftp.cs.unc.edu:/pub/faith/linux/utils
    tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/linux/sources/FSF
    sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/utils

*.taz files are in the following places:
    ftp.cs.unc.edu:/pub/faith/linux/utils
    tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/linux/binaries/FSF

The hard to find (i.e., non-GNU) sources are in the following places:
    ftp.cs.unc.edu:/pub/faith/linux/utils/sources
    tsx-11.mit.edu:?
    sunsite.unc.edu:?

Source for FSF utilties are in the following places:
    prep.ai.mit.edu:/pub/gnu
    tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/linux/sources/FSF/from_prep



WHAT'S NEW IN THIS RELEASE:

utila-1.2.src.tar.Z
utila12.Notes
utila12.taz

    This is a random collection of NET-2 and other source code, including:
    banner, cal, chsh (which should be setuid to root, but isn't), clear,
    col, colcrt, colrm, column, hexdump, last, mesg, od, passwd (which is
    setuid to root), reset, script, strings, ul, uuencode, uudecode, and
    whereis.  EVERYTHING HAS A MAN PAGE!


utilb-1.0.src.tar.Z
utilb10.Notes
utilb10.taz

    This is a random collection of mostly custom Linux code, which, in
    general, should be in the /bin directory, including: ed, hostname,
    kill, ldd, login, more, setterm, wall, write.  EVERYTHING HAS A MAN
    PAGE!

    **********************************************************************

    BE VERY CAREFUL IF YOU DON'T HAVE libc.so.4.2 INSTALLED!  You may not
    be able to log in!  Check to be sure that the programs work in some
    directory OTHER THAN /bin, *BEFORE* YOU INSTALL THEM.  ESPECIALLY
    LOGIN!

    **********************************************************************


utile-1.0.src.tar.Z
utile10.Notes
utile10.taz

    This is a random collection of mostly custom Linux code, which, in
    general, should be in the /etc directory, including: agetty, clock,
    ctrlaltdel, doshell, fastboot, fasthalt, fdformat, fdisk, frag, fsck,
    halt, kbdrate, makehole, mkfs, mkswap, mount, ramsize, reboot,
    rdev,setfdprm, setserial, shutdown, simpleinit, swapdev, swapon,
    swapoff, sync, umount, update, and vidmode.  EVERYTHING HAS A MAN PAGE!
    
    The rdev command can change your kernel image's boot device, swap
    device, ramdisk size, and video mode.  The agetty and simpleinit are
    the "standard" Linux getty and init, but you have to make the links
    yourself, since some people may be using the System V versions, and I
    didn't want the tar to clobber those.  PLEASE BE VERY CAREFUL WITH
    GETTY AND INIT, SINCE THEY CAN MAKE YOUR SYSTEM UNBOOTABLE!

    Most people will have copies of these programs in /bin, and may want to
    keep them there, instead of moving them to /etc (where many people,
    myself and a bunch of manuals included, believe section 8 utilities
    belong).  If you want to keep things in /bin, however, please get the
    source distribution and fix the paths in pathnames.h.  Otherwise,
    things like shutdown won't work correctly.

    **********************************************************************

    BE VERY CAREFUL IF YOU DON'T HAVE libc.so.4.2 INSTALLED!  You may not
    be able to log in!  Check to be sure that the programs work in some
    directory OTHER THAN /etc, *BEFORE* YOU INSTALL THEM.  ESPECIALLY
    AGETTY, SIMPLEINIT, MOUNT, SWAPON, and SYNC!

    **********************************************************************



time14B.taz

    This is GNU time 1.4, which provides more output that the standard

    release has the "magnitude of order bug" patches applied.
