Update of bug #31240 (project findutils):
Status: None => Invalid
Assigned to: None => jay
Open/Closed: Open => Closed
_______________________________________________________
Follow-up Comment #1:
find -exec is designed not to launch commands via the shell. This is
standard feature of all implementations of find, and it's intended that way in
order to better handle unusual filenames.
You can achieve the effect you want by using sh -c as the 'command' for find
-exec and executing your pipeline that way. There are examples of this in
the 'Common Tasks' section of the Texinfo documentation.
(I'm marking this bug "invalid" because it's not a bug in find.)
