[Pádraig Brady]

We plan to release coreutils-8.27 in about a week, so any testing
you can do on various different systems between now and then
would be most welcome.

--------------------------------------

You can download the coreutils snapshot in xz format (5.2 MB) from:
  https://pixelbeat.org/cu/coreutils-ss.tar.xz

And verify with gpg or md5sum with:
  https://pixelbeat.org/cu/coreutils-ss.tar.xz.sig
  MD5 (coreutils-ss.tar.xz) = 11633dc2137c50cb7a63e4c19edae7e9

--------------------------------------

To test follow this standard procedure:

  tar -xf coreutils-ss.tar.xz
  cd coreutils-8.26.57-00381/

Failures are reported and details are in tests/test-suite.log
