From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

MODERATORS
Supposedly there are many not-very-well-tested changes in 25.10, be aware of that if you upgrade or try this out.
Did they even resolve the issues with the Rust implementation of coreutils?
Yes. They also reverted some of the still unfinished stuff to use the Gnu versions until the Rust versions are ready.
What did they revert? I had not heard that.
UUtils is just the “core” utils for now but that was always the plan. What got reverted?
I thought all the reported bugs were fixed (mostly before the articles were even written).
None of this means there are not more bugs or feature gaps of course. I am sure there are. This is the first test of UUtils at scale.
