Package: findutils
Version: 4.2.27-3
Severity: normal

afaik, you mostly need -nowarn when you can't change where options go.
this occurs when you have something like this:

afind () {      #archive find with -depth and maybe other cpio/afio features
#sort -ru?
        #nowarn is just for command line option syntax things
        find "${@:?}" -depth
}

but this version of find will give the warning even if you put -nowarn
in front of -depth.  you cannot put it anywhere else.

my suggested fix is to allow -nowarn anywhere on the command line.

thanks.
