--- Begin Message ---Package: findutils Version: 4.4.2-9+b1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, find doesn't find on first invocation, only on second and subsequent ones after a boot. * What led up to the situation? Fresh boot, then log in as root. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Invoked the find command twice within seconds of each other. The first invocation does not recurse down from the root of the file system except for entering /sys/ The second and every subsequent invocation will recurse properly. Example output: root@host:~# find / -iname 'cpufrequtils*' /sys/fs/cgroup/devices/system.slice/cpufrequtils.service /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd/system.slice/cpufrequtils.service root@host:~# find / -iname 'cpufrequtils*' /sys/fs/cgroup/devices/system.slice/cpufrequtils.service /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd/system.slice/cpufrequtils.service /run/systemd/generator.late/runlevel5.target.wants/cpufrequtils.service /run/systemd/generator.late/runlevel4.target.wants/cpufrequtils.service /run/systemd/generator.late/runlevel3.target.wants/cpufrequtils.service /run/systemd/generator.late/runlevel2.target.wants/cpufrequtils.service /run/systemd/generator.late/cpufrequtils.service /usr/share/lintian/overrides/cpufrequtils /usr/share/doc/cpufrequtils /usr/share/doc/cpufrequtils/examples/cpufrequtils.sample /usr/share/doc/cpufrequtils/examples/cpufrequtils.loadcpufreq.sample /usr/share/locale/pt/LC_MESSAGES/cpufrequtils.mo /usr/share/locale/it/LC_MESSAGES/cpufrequtils.mo /usr/share/locale/ca/LC_MESSAGES/cpufrequtils.mo /usr/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/cpufrequtils.mo /usr/share/locale/cs/LC_MESSAGES/cpufrequtils.mo /usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/cpufrequtils.mo /etc/init.d/cpufrequtils /var/lib/dpkg/info/cpufrequtils.prerm /var/lib/dpkg/info/cpufrequtils.templates /var/lib/dpkg/info/cpufrequtils.list /var/lib/dpkg/info/cpufrequtils.conffiles /var/lib/dpkg/info/cpufrequtils.postinst /var/lib/dpkg/info/cpufrequtils.md5sums /var/lib/dpkg/info/cpufrequtils.postrm * What was the outcome of this action? First invocatoin of find did not actually find what it should find. * What outcome did you expect instead?

That is not feasible. find dropped the '-perm +xyz' syntax and multiple packages in jessie use this (e.g. python). cu Andreas -- `What a good friend you are to him, Dr. Maturin.
