[Bug 2127885] Re: sort command pipe output fails

[theofficialgman]

For anyone testing, at pi-apps we now force gnu coreutils to be
installed via a runonce and on initial install. Please re-install uutils
if you intend on bugtesting.

Title:
  sort command pipe output fails

Status in rust-coreutils package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This issue was first uncovered by a user in pi-apps https://pi-
  apps.io/ https://github.com/Botspot/pi-apps/issues/2853

  Honestly, I don't have the time to determine which command(s) are
  failing because there are so many cases of it. pi-apps makes extensive
  use of the coreutils libraries so any issue has cascading effects. The
  primary issue seems to occur in the preload script which creates lists
  for our YAD UI to read and create a user interface. These lists are
  being generated incorrectly due to multiple RUST uutils commands
  failing in ways that the GNU coreutils commands never have.

  It is unacceptable that critical system libraries are being messed
  with without intensive testing and time in an official release of
  ubuntu by DEFAULT. Users don't expect that the underlying coreutils
  are broken on their system out of the box.
