- Finished porting i18n patch to sort.c.
- Fixed for sort-mb-tests (avoid +n syntax).
The latest /usr/bin/sort is causing lots of damage.
See bugs# 166328 and 172028
My suggestion is that you don't update to coreutils-5.92-1
or if you have, that you downgrade again and reinstall fontconfig to rebuild its caches that may have been broken: rpm -Uvh --oldpackage coreutils-5.2.1-56.i386.rpm rpm -Uvh --replacepkgs fontconfig-2.3.91.cvs20051017-1.i386.rpm
Unfortunately, if you have been bitten by this problem, you may not be able to read this since it breaks thunderbird.
