I wonder who was the very stable genius who decided it would be smart to take Gnu code tested over decades and completely rewrite it in a different language (because of course, there are no other issues to solve in FOSS systems) #coreutils

Im Fediverse seit 26.04.2022 Hier her umgezogen aus dem TrötCafe. Den ersten Kaffee gibt es schon morgens im Bett. Ich koche und backe gerne und bekomme beides inzwischen auch recht gut hin. Backen klappt besser als kochen. Begeistert für die Fliegerei. Am liebsten fliege ich selber. Das Meer ist für mich ein Ort der Ruhe. Ich bin für die Legalisierung von Cannabis und gleichzeitig für die Regulierung der Abgabe von Alkohol und Nikotin. Oft in Südwest England (Devon) anzutreffen. Meine Boosts stellen nicht immer meine Meinung dar. Geschrieben wird hier auf Deutsch und auch Englisch _________ Joined the Fediverse at 26.04.2022 Moved here from TrötCafe I have the first coffee in the morning in bed. I like cooking and baking and both is working pretty good in the meantime. Baking works better than cooking. I'm an aviation Enthusiast. I prefer flying by myself. The sea is a place of quietness for me. I'm in favor of the legalisation of Cannabis and at the same point I'm in favor to regulate the selling of alcohol and nicotine. You find me often in south-west England (Devon). My boosts are not always my opinion. I'm writing here on German and English.

Why does #Canonical wants to replace the fully developed #GNU #coreutils by their newly developed #uutils?
The only difference is, that the uutils are a reimplementation in #RUST of the coreutils, written in #C.
All they obviously do is to put issues into these absolute basic utilities that doesn’t exist in the originals.
To me that makes no sense. The only idea I get why Canonical might do this is to get more control over basic utilities of #Linux.
