Public bug reported:

Scheduled-For: ubuntu-25.06
Ubuntu: 9.5-1ubuntu2
Debian Unstable: 9.7-2

A new release of coreutils is available for merging from Debian
Unstable.

If it turns out this needs a sync rather than a merge, please change the
tag 'dcr-merge' to 'dcr-sync', and (optionally) update the title as
desired.

If this merge pulls in a new upstream version, also consider adding an
entry to the questing Release Notes:
https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/questing-quokka-release-notes/

coreutils (9.5-1ubuntu1) plucky; urgency=medium

  * Merge from Debian Unstable. Remaining changes:
    - debian/rules:
      + Allow crossbuilding
      + Run tests
      + Ignore the cut-huge-range test failure on armhf, only seen on
        the buildds.
    - debian/tests:
      + Add dep8 tests
    - debian/patches/80_fedora_sysinfo.patch
      + Make 'uname -i -p' return the real processor/hardware,
        instead of unknown.
    - debian/patches/99_float_endian_detection.patch:
      + Fix detection of floating point endianness.
    - d/p/treat-devtmpfs-and-squashfs-as-dummy-filesystems.patch:
      + Avoid displaying snaps in output from df and other tools, by
        excluding display of squashfs filesystems.
        (LP #1219529, #1756595)
      + Exclude devtmpfs filesystems in output from df and other tools
        since it is a dummy filesystem.
        (LP #1219529)
    - d/p/cp-n.diff: skip tests/cp/cp-i.sh upstream test (LP #2055180)
      The behavior of cp -n is different in Debian than in upstream,
      and this test assumes upstream behavior of -n, and how it
      interacts with -i.
    - d/p/72_id_checkngroups.patch: refreshed
  * Dropped (upstreamed) changes:
    - d/p/tail-fix-tailing-sysfs-files-where-PAGE_SIZE-BUFSIZ.patch:
      Fix tailing of sysfs files on systems using a 64K page size.
      (LP 2047450)
    - SECURITY UPDATE: heap overflow in split --line-bytes with very long
      lines
      + debian/patches/CVE-2024-0684.patch: do not shrink hold buffer in
        src/split.c.
      + CVE-2024-0684
