find command

[Jim Battan]

>In article <21544 at adm.BRL.MIL>, mchinni at pica.army.mil asks about find(1).

Please be aware there's a bug in the SunOS version of find(1).  It's
known by bug id #1008718 and is scheduled to be fixed in 4.1.  Here's the
bug report I filed on Feb 18 1988:

Description:
        find doesn't use the -name option when using -depth.

Repeat-By:
        mkdir a
        cd a
        touch b c
        mkdir d
        touch d/e
        find . ! -name . -print         # gives what it should
        find . -depth ! -name . -print  # still prints "."!!
