Feel free to ignore this posting.
I didn't search the archives for coreutils before sending this message
(sorry). I was mainly looking for confirmation that coreutils was
intended to replace all three of the *utils packages and it's obvious
from the archives that this is the case.
I'll research the archives more thoroughly before posting about
coreutils again.
