>Environment:
System : OpenBSD 5.6
Details : OpenBSD 5.6 (GENERIC) #274: Fri Aug 8 00:05:13 MDT 2014
[email protected]:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC
Architecture: OpenBSD.i386
Machine : i386
>Description:
find(1) says it can't find an existing directory with -exec rmdir
>How-To-Repeat:
$ ls -dF /tmp/foo/bar
ls: /tmp/foo/bar: No such file or directory
$ ls -dF /tmp/foo
ls: /tmp/foo: No such file or directory
Directory can be found with ls & find:
$ mkdir -p /tmp/foo/bar
$ ls -dF /tmp/foo/bar
/tmp/foo/bar/
$ find /tmp/foo -type d -empty -ls
31751 4 drwx------ 2 craig wheel 512 May 25 09:06 /tmp/foo/bar
$ find /tmp/foo -type d -empty -exec rmdir -- {} \;
find: /tmp/foo/bar: No such file or directory
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
$ ls /tmp/foo
$
Works OK when piping to xargs:
$ mkdir /tmp/foo/bar
$ ls -dF /tmp/foo/bar
/tmp/foo/bar/
$ find /tmp/foo -type d -empty | xargs rmdir --
$ ls /tmp/foo
$
>Fix:
