The First Stable Release of a Rust-Rewrite Sudo Implementation

Would be interesting to see a a Debian derivative that combines this with the Rust Implementation Of GNU Coreutils.[1] Could be a big win for memory safety and performance.

uutils /coreutils is also a great project. It has many contributors, and it also is a great resource to learn.

I have years of experience in vulnerability analysis including several 0-day discovery, and this bug [buffer overflow] seems totally safe.

Already did it. Checkmate, as i believe your people say.

Rust is ugly, doesn’t even let you write simple data structures, unsafe rust is not even defined, makes the simplest things so hard to write and did I mention it’s ugly?

Ah yes, std, that famous crate that is unusable for systems programming. God forbid anyone do any "systems" programming that uses std.
GitHub - dcantrell/bsdutils: Alternative to GNU coreutils using software from FreeBSD

I suppose there's some merit in having another option. But I also immediately thought why not just contribute to https://github.com/uutils/coreutils.

2 projects | /r/BSD | 2 Mar 2023

I like the idea but I think that https://github.com/uutils/coreutils likely is the better option going forward if you want to avoid GNU coreutils. Writing code that works on all platforms seems better than to port from one system to another, in my opinion

I think you’re conflating different projects.
There are projects that aim for a better user experience, with better command line interface, defaults, performance and UI. These are of course breaking changes and the programs can’t be used as drop in replacement. Some examples are
- ls => exa (https://github.com/ogham/exa)
- grep => ripgrep (https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep)
- cat => bat (https://github.com/sharkdp/bat)
- tree => broot (https://github.com/Canop/broot)
The person you’re replying to was speaking of a different project - uutils (https://github.com/uutils/coreutils). These are drop in replacements with identical interfaces (modulo bugs).
