Volker Klasen opened a bug in the Debian bug tracker concerning a change in behavior in cut. I have CC'd the bug on this message. I have manually set an appropriate Reply-To header.
http://bugs.debian.org/718898 There has been a lot of improvements made to cut. But the issue is this one. In the older 8.13 this was the behavior: $ printf "one\ntwo\n" | cut -d " > " -f2 two In the newer 8.21 this is the new behavior: $ printf "one\ntwo\n" | cut -d " > " -f2 one two Was this change intentional or accidental? Bob P.S. Of course using cut is a terrible way to select the second line. I would use "awk 'NR==2'". But that is a separate issue. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
