Hello
find /etc -size -1G
should return all files less than 1Giga byte in /etc, but return a
list of empty file (size=0)
find /etc -size -2G
work fine and return all the files
This works the same on my fedora11 and my centos 5 !
Did I miss something or is it a bug ?

Seems like rounding issues lead to the problem. Try lesser units
(instead of G, use M, k, c).

You are correct. Doing -size -1G on both F11 and F12 return only
zero-length files. Yep, that's a bug in my book.
Two explanations given in the bug link that someone posted earlier:

I have to disagree that's the documented behavior either in the info or

Different invocation. Your test and the OP used -size -1G (which
_should_ report files less than 1G but apparently reports only 0-byte
files). The reply above was -size 1G which _should_ match files that
are exactly 1G in size but according to the above does what

It corresponds to my understanding of the info description.

Misleading might be a little bit strong. It does describe the
