[oi-dev] coreutils 8.21 for /hipster

Good day.
Just for now I'd like to add mariadb to our repository and look at 
switching dependencies for packages from mysql 5.1  to percona or 
mariadb 5.5.
After adding mariadb I could look at coreutils update.

I have a question about  /usr/bin/install -> /usr/gnu/bin/install 
hardlink. It can affect compatibility (as it hides /usr/sbin/install 
when /usr/bin precedes /usr/sbin in PATH, and this is the common case),
so I'd like to hear more opinions on the matter. I think it is not safe.
