Follow-up Comment #1, bug #45483 (project findutils): The statement in the manpage matches the POSIX requirements for -atime and matches the behaviour I observe with 4.4.2 and 4.5.10.
$ date Wed Jul 15 11:23:46 BST 2015 $ ls -lu total 0 -rw-r--r-- 1 geoff geoff 0 Jul 14 11:00 oneday -rw-r--r-- 1 geoff geoff 0 Jul 13 11:00 twodays $ find . -atime +1 ./twodays I suspect that the problem here is with Matthew's conclusions about his observations. For example he might be mixing up the timestamps (using plain ls -l instead of ls -lu). _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?45483> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
