Vicky,

Findutils 4.1.7 is really quite old now.  The current version is
4.1.20, which you used to be able to download from alpha.gnu.org.
However, a problem with that site meant that the file was removed.
The current situation is that I am waiting to upload the file again to
alpha.gnu.org, but the mechanism which should allow me to do that
appears not to be working.

Meanwhile, you should be able to download findutils-4.1.20 from 
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/f/findutils/findutils_4.1.20.orig.tar.gz

... there will probably also be other FTP sites you could get it from.

regards,
James.
