Package: findutils Version: 4.4.0-2 Severity: wishlist File: /usr/bin/find
the -mount option of find doesn't reliably tetect -bind mounts. # cd /tmp # mkdir target # mkdir -p test/point # mount --bind target test/point # touch target/testfile # find test -mount produces output test test/point test/point/testfile I realise that this behavior is not out of line with that described in the man page but feel that having find stop when it hits the mount-point would be a useful option too. detecting the mount point traversal seems tricky after confirming same-file-system comparing the inode for .. and it's expected value won't work where the mount and its mount point are in the same directory Maybe asking the kernel is the only way, but even that could prove challenging... -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_NZ.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_NZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages findutils depends on: ii libc6 2.7-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries findutils recommends no packages.
