Hi, I'm the findutils maintainer. 'find -ls' (and in fact most of the size-related bits of find) is broken in older versions of findutils. Newer versions, including 4.1.20 in unstable, work fine for me. I'm seeing exactly the same output from '/usr/bin/find . -ls' and '/sw/bin/find . -ls'. If

Unfortunately Solaris' mv is too brain dead such that it won't work unless I use another mv. Actually, more fiddling reveals that fink probably needs to be rewritten to port to another platform at all (and I'm not going to advocate this, at least not on fink's own mailing list :-] ). There is
