I assume you deleted gnulib/ before running import-gnulib.sh. If so, I have no suggestions for your next step.

OK, I'll try to use findutils-4.2.18.tar.gz into my own branch. Another problem is, when I type "git checkout FINDUTILS_4_3_5-1" to switch to the version 4.3.5, and use "sh import-gnulib.sh" for preparation, an error arises: ... configure.in:70: error: AC_REQUIRE: circular dependency of AC_GNU_SOU
