Re: FC6 - sort



you can work around any compatibility problems by setting
_POSIX2_VERSION=199209 in your environment. (/etc/environment)

That should fix the script that would break.

This actually changed in FC5 btw.

So, what happened to the sort command?


sort -f 4 -d ' ' foo
sort: open failed: 4: No such file or directory

sort +4 foo
sort: open failed: +4: No such file or directory


That's going to break a lot of scripts.

It sank into the vortex. So I built another one. It sank into the vortex.
The third station burned down, fell over then sank into the vortex. The fourth
station just vanished. And the fifth station, THAT stayed!
