On Friday 22 June, I sent email out announcing a new version of find
that fixed problems reported by Chad.
This version does NOT appear on the 7.7G packs I have.
This is not as tragic as it may seem at first glance.
We now have the OFFICIAL patch for find.
/mit/solarisdev/find.2.3.temp/find.new is the file.
/mit/solarisdev/find.2.3.temp/T101649-03.tar.Z is the whole patch.
The README reports the following fixes:
> In 4.1.x ( and earlier ) find had a useful -ok option. Documentation
> indicates that
> Solaris 2.x find should behave essentially the same as the 4.x find, but
> it does not.
> 1160023 find command name option does not obey shell globbing rules on 2.x
> on 4.x find -name \* -print does not print out . files
> on 5.x find -name \* -print does print out . files
> 1150607 find gives bogus error message for symbolic link
> 'find' does not work for "-local" and "-fstype".
I have tested find.new and determined that the -ok behavior has been corrected.
SOooooo /mit/solarisdev/find.2.3.temp/find.new
should be copied into /srvd/usr/bin/find
-wdc
