I think the description of -L very clearly states this: -L Follow symbolic links. When find examines or *prints* information about files, [...] The filename is "information about files". The real behavior of -L is more complicated than what this sentence says. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56410> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
