coreutils

• binutils
• findutils
• ls
• tr

• ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/coreutils/

coreutils will quit if running ./configure as root. To override:

FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIGURE=1 ./configure

You can force the utilities to have a g prefix, so that they will install on systems without overriding defaults – fex, gls instead of ls:

FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIGURE=1 ./configure --program-prefix=g
