Subject: Bug#322581: coreutils: /usr/bin/join missed its '-n' option. (Version 2.0 had it).

Package: coreutils
Version: 5.2.1-2
Severity: important

We have some scripts running on Woody that use /usr/bin/join to merge files based
on numeric data. We found this scripts to break when moved to a Sarge installation
because '-n' command-line option was completely removed.

(Should it be ranked 'critical' as breaking other software?).
