The GNU coreutils port from UNIX. This package is the union of the GNU fileutils, sh-utils, and textutils packages. Most of these programs have significant advantages over their UNIX counterparts, such as greater speed, additional options, and fewer arbitrary limits.

This software is distributed in two modes:
  • as compressed package that you have to download and manually install; if prerequisites are required, you will have to manually install them too;
  • as RPM package; you can install it using your favorite rpm package manager, that will take care to download and install both the software and its prerequisites.
Choose the installation mode that you prefer. Please note that not all the versions are available in both the installation modes.

Installation with rpm

This program is installable using the rpm package manager. See below for the install string. Required prerequisites are automatically processed by the package manager and, if needed, downloaded and installed.

I see in the above blurp "Installation Program is distributed as ZIP package: download to temporary directory and unpack to destination folder. See below for download link(s)." I cannot find a download link for the above mentioned ZIP file anywhere on the page. Is it in text that is tha same colour as the page background is it simply missing?

The only zip package I see mentioned is an old version of coreutils from 2008. That is not a recent/current package. I think you probably need to change the link to http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/download/pub/incoming/coreutils-8.26.zip
