+coreutils (8.23-1) unstable; urgency=low
+
+  GNU coreutils package now includes the `realpath' command that used to
+  be found in a separate `realpath' package.
+
+  Even though the GNU version provides all the features of the old Debian
+  version, the behaviour is a bit different, namely:
+
+    * GNU `realpath' and `realpath -s' commands require all but the
+      last path components to exist
+
+  whereas:
+
+    * Debian version of `realpath' required all the path components to exist;
+    * Debian version of `realpath -s' required no path components to exist.
+
+  To get the old behaviour in GNU `realpath' an additional option needs
+  to be used:
+
+       Old Debian realpath       New GNU coreutils realpath
+     -----------------------    ----------------------------
+      realpath    file(s)    =>    realpath -e    file(s)
+      realpath -s file(s)    =>    realpath -s -m file(s)

+coreutils (5.96-3) unstable; urgency=low
+
+  * The POSIX compatibility level is now set to POSIX 1003.1-2001,
+    which affects the syntax for several commands.  For transition
+    purposes, "sort +number" and "tail +number" will be supported
+    for the etch release. Note that these usages are deprecated, and
+    will be removed in etch+1; the recommended usage is "sort -k number"
+    and "tail -n +number". Also, "uniq +number" should be replaced with
+    "uniq -s number" and "touch number filename" should be replaced with
+    "touch -t number filename". To revert to the older syntax, set the
+    environment variable _POSIX2_VERSION to "199209".
