Dear Madam, Sir,

a while ago I installed the very useful coreutils on my iMac. However, when I tried to upgrade my free software collection with fink it refused. The reason turned out to be a bew uname from coreutils, which did not recognize the processor:

[srikandi] [13:13] /sw% /usr/local/bin/uname --version
uname (coreutils) 5.0

[srikandi] [12:43] /sw% /usr/local/bin/uname -p

[srikandi] [13:13] /sw% /usr/bin/uname -p
powerpc

If I can do anything to help fix this bug please let me know.

Greetings from Gouda, Holland,
