Ubuntu 25.10's Move To Rust Coreutils Is Causing Major Breakage For Some Executables
(www.phoronix.com)

It’s less stable than the LTS at least, and right now 25.10 is still in beta. It’s scheduled to release on October 9th.
Duhhhhhh

Sounds like they are taking the conservative approach, so should be more stable.
