[#]GNU #coreutils 9.6 is out:

https://savannah.gnu.org/news/?id=10715

A few highlights:

• cksum -a now supports the "crc32b" option

• ls now supports the --sort=name option

• printf now supports indexed arguments

• test supports the POSIX:2024 specified '<' and '>' operators with strings

• cksum -a crc, makes use of AVX2, AVX512, and ARMv8 SIMD extensions

• wc now reads a minimum of 256KiB at a time […] was seen to increase wc -l performance by about 10% when reading cached files on modern systems.
