Description Chris Evans 2000-06-26 23:26:37 UTC
See summary
Example: find /bin -perm -4000 returns totally incorrect results

Comments from Alan Cox:
Agreed

find /bin -perm 4711 works
find /bin -perm +4000 works
find /bin -perm -4000 breaks


Comments from Jeremy Katz

Confirmed.  Looks like the findutils is pristine, so the bug probably
needs to be filed with bug-findutils as well

Comment 1 Jeremy Katz 2000-07-06 06:13:25 UTC
resolved by beta3's findutils-4.1.5-3
