Aptivi<p><strong>Rust Coreutils “uutils” v0.1&nbsp;released!</strong></p><p>The developers behind the Rust coreutils, called <code>uutils</code>, have reached a major milestone with the release of v0.1.0. This comes after the last release, which was v0.0.30. This version is now on GitHub, which you can check out below.</p> <a class="" href="https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/releases/tag/0.1.0" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Learn more</a> <p>This version of uutils contains many interesting changes done to the system utilities, including <code>cp</code>, <code>ls</code>, and others. The SELinux support has been added to <code>cp</code>,&nbsp;<code>ls</code>,&nbsp;<code>mkdir</code>,&nbsp;<code>mknod</code>,&nbsp;<code>mkfifo</code>,&nbsp;<code>install</code>, and&nbsp;<code>stat</code> for systems that are security oriented. This makes sure that systems with this coreutils implementation can now enjoy better security with SELinux enabled, especially when SELinux is enforcing.</p><p>In addition to that, the speed has been improved to match and possibly exceed the legacy GNU coreutils performance. You can now notice the improved speed in commands like <code>cat</code>,&nbsp;<code>ls</code>,&nbsp;<code>wc</code>,&nbsp;<code>tail</code>,&nbsp;<code>seq</code>, and more.</p><p>Thanks to many commits and contributions done to the Rust coreutils project, it has witnessed many changes done to various commands, such as date allowing negative date offsets, echo allowing double hyphens, and print fixing octal escape parsing.</p><p>In addition to that, the test suite compatibility has seen increasing number of successes. While 0.0.30 has 507 passes; 41 skips; and 69 fails, version 0.1.0 has 522 passes; 31 skips; and 65 passes.</p><p>As a result, as future versions get released, compatibility with the older GNU coreutils increases. This is evidenced by the increasing number of succeeding unit tests for the Rust coreutils project, especially when it comes to SELinux-related tests.</p><p>You can consult the official website of Rust coreutils below.</p> <a class="" href="https://uutils.github.io/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Official website</a> <p><strong>What about Ubuntu?</strong></p><p>Ubuntu is planning to ship <code>uutils</code> to replace the older GNU coreutils as part of the broader plan, called “<a href="https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/carefully-but-purposefully-oxidising-ubuntu/56995" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Oxidizing Ubuntu</a>.” Ubuntu 25.10 will be the first version of Ubuntu that will use this coreutils implementation to ensure that your Ubuntu system becomes both more secure and quicker; furthermore, your productivity will increase as the improved performance becomes prevalent in this release.</p><p>Ubuntu 25.10 Questing Quokka will use the Rust coreutils during the development cycle, along with the Rust implementation of sudo called <code>rs-sudo</code>. In later development milestones, Ubuntu will use the <code>findutils</code> and the <code>diffutils</code> projects from the master <code>uutils</code> project.</p><p><strong>You will be able to download the stable release of this Ubuntu version on October 9th, 2025.</strong></p><p><span></span></p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/25-10/" target="_blank">#2510</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/coreutils/" target="_blank">#Coreutils</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/linux/" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/linux-desktop/" target="_blank">#LinuxDesktop</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/news/" target="_blank">#news</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/questing/" target="_blank">#Questing</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/questing-quokka/" target="_blank">#QuestingQuokka</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/quokka/" target="_blank">#Quokka</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/rust/" target="_blank">#Rust</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/rust-coreutils/" target="_blank">#RustCoreutils</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/tech/" target="_blank">#Tech</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/technology/" target="_blank">#Technology</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/ubuntu/" target="_blank">#Ubuntu</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/ubuntu-25-10/" target="_blank">#Ubuntu2510</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/ubuntu-25-10-questing/" target="_blank">#Ubuntu2510Questing</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/ubuntu-25-10-questing-quokka/" target="_blank">#Ubuntu2510QuestingQuokka</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/ubuntu-25-10-quokka/" target="_blank">#Ubuntu2510Quokka</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/update/" target="_blank">#update</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/uutils/" target="_blank">#uutils</a></p>
