This is a patch file for "coreutils" 8.25.

By default, the version of "ls" provided with "coreutils" 8.19 includ-
es a distracting feature.  Specifically,  if "ls" colors  are enabled,
the names of  world-writable directories are  displayed using  inverse
video.  This is a  security feature, but it's  triggered frequently by
source tarballs, and it's arguably pointless in that context.

The following change disables the feature.  This change should be com-
patible with most or all distros.

Note:  "ls" also uses inverse video to flag directories that  have the
"sticky" bit set. This change doesn't affect the use of inverse  video
in the  "sticky"-bit  context (except where both  "sticky" and "world-
writable" are set).
