>                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-662
>             Project: Hadoop
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: dfs
>    Affects Versions: 0.7.2

>         Assigned To: Jiang Lei
>            Priority: Minor

> I get a different response from dfs -ls depending on whether or not the 
> ls contained a directory or a wildcard. The wild card misses the 
> response that tells me how many files.
> It did indeed cause a problem with my scripts. It was easy to filter 
> out. If it's a desired action to do it sometimes and others then that's 
> it's ok. It doesn't seem like this is really the intention so I pointed 
> it out. My script is now happy with both forms. I do really on the fact 
> that the 3 column of the output is the file size. Perhaps I shouldn't be 
> doing this but I am writing some automated scripts in python to drive 
> hadoop so it is useful to check file sizes. If you were to provide a 
> format string that would allow me to place the items in a specific 
> format then you would be free to change it, whenever, however, you wanted.
