Follow-up Comment #2, bug #46305 (project findutils): I think this is an actual bug, despite the general danger of running -delete together with -L. In this setup:
$ mkdir foo $ mkdir bar $ ln -s ../foo bar/baz $ find -L bar -delete find: cannot delete ‘bar/baz’: Not a directory find: cannot delete ‘bar’: Directory not empty (No -type d necessary.) strace shows that find tried to unlinkat(AT_FDCWD, "bar/baz", AT_REMOVEDIR) = -1 ENOTDIR (Not a directory) but "bar/baz" is not a directory so AT_REMOVEDIR is wrong. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?46305> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
