I am pleased to announce the release of version 4.2.18 of GNU findutils. This is another bugfix release; the list of bugs fixes appears below.
GNU findutils is a set of software tools for finding files that match certain criteria and for performing various operations on them. Findutils includes the programs "find", "xargs" and "locate". This is a bugfix release of the software, and can be downloaded from ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/findutils. The "stable" releases of findutils on the other hand can be downloaded from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/findutils. The ftp.gnu.org site is very busy, so you may find it more convenient to download findutils from one of the mirror sites listed at http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html. More information about findutils is available at http://www.gnu.org/software/findutils/. Bugs in GNU findutils should be reported to the findutils bug tracker at http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=findutils. Reporting bugs via the web interface will ensure that you are automatically informed when the bug has been fixed. General discussion of findutils takes place on the bug-findutils mailing list.

This affected findutils releases 4.2.15, 4.2.16 and 4.2.17, but the bug is now fixed. *** Find no longer hangs on systems which are clients of unresponsive NFS servers. ** Documentation improvements *** Improvements and corrections to the find.1 manpage, including corrections to the descriptions of -H and -L. -- James Youngman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> GNU findutils maintainer _______________________________________________ Bug-findutils mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-findutils
