| Version: 0.68 | Vendor: openSUSE |
| Release: lp160.1.1 | Build date: Wed Nov 29 14:42:27 2023 |
| Group: Productivity/File utilities | Build host: reproducible |
| Size: 23193 | Source RPM: moreutils-0.68-lp160.1.1.src.rpm |

| Summary: Runs a command quietly unless it fails | |
chronic runs a command, and arranges for its standard out and standard error to only be displayed if the command fails (exits nonzero or crashes). If the command succeeds, any extraneous output will be hidden. A common use for chronic is for running a cron job. Rather than trying to keep the command quiet, and having to deal with mails containing accidental output when it succeeds, and not verbose enough output when it fails, you can just run it verbosely always, and use chronic to hide the successful output.

* Mon Sep 12 2016 aloisio@gmx.com
- Update to version 0.60
* New implementation of isutf8 by Julien Palard.
+ Noncharacters (ending with 0xFFFF and 0xFFFE)
were considered invalid when encoded in utf8,
according to the unicode standard they are valid:
"However, they are not illegal in interchange, nor
does their presence cause Unicode text to be
ill-formed."
+ \xf4\xbf\xbf\xbf was considered valid UTF8, which
is not: after 0xF4 the following byte should be
between 80 and 8F.
+ This implementation does not try to decode the stream,
so it checks it faster.
+ Add --list option. Closes: #691330
