FTR, the sync of the Debian experimental package was pulled because it fails on ppc64el. So this needs a cherry-picked fix instead. ** Changed in: findutils (Ubuntu Xenial) Assignee: Martin Pitt (pitti) => (unassigned) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of

Talked to Pitti during the last foundations meeting. He mentioned possibly doing a merge of findutils 4.5.14-3 from debian-experitmental to xenial. That should contain fix required to resolve this bug. ** Changed in: findutils (Ubuntu Xenial) Assignee: (unassigned) => Martin Pitt (pitti)

I also reviewed the upstream patch that purports to resolve the issue (7dc7006). This fix is contained within the 4.5.9 and newer versions of findutils. That's where the good news ends. The code portion of that single commit is 817 lines long. It doesn't apply cleanly, and it appears to have
