Had to build from source at http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/findutils/findutils-4.6.0.tar.gz because version 4.6.0+git+20160703-2 from the stretch repo won't install on jessie. The good news is that, yes, version 4.6.0 from the gnu repo did fix it. Can I suggest that an installable flavour of 4.6.0 is made available in jessie-backports at least (jessie main would be even better)? Regards, Qaz Gesendet: Sonntag, 30.

[...] That looks pretty much identical to https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?47261[https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?47261] Could you check whether it is also fixed with the latest release? cu Andreas -- `What a good friend you are to him, Dr. Maturin.
