-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 A new release of findutils, 4.4.0-3, is available for use with cygwin 1.5.x, replacing 4.4.0-1, and leaving 4.3.13-1 as the previous version. (4.4.0-2 remains the only version usable with cygwin 1.7.0.)
NEWS: ===== This is a minor patch release. It applies the same cygwin-specific patch as is used in 'df -T' to work around the poor output from getmntent in cygwin 1.5.x (cygwin 1.7.0 does not have the problem). This in turn makes 'find -fstype' and 'find -printf "%F"' able to distinguish remote drives, so that updatedb can avoid remote file systems. See also /usr/share/doc/findutils-4.4.0/. DESCRIPTION: ============ The findutils package contains programs which will help you locate files on your system. The find utility searches through a hierarchy of directories looking for files which match a certain set of criteria (such as a filename pattern). The xargs utility builds and executes command lines from standard input arguments (usually lists of file names generated by the find command). The locate utility scans a database of filenames and displays matches. The updatedb utility builds the database for locate. UPDATE: ======= To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Save it and run setup, answer the questions and pick up 'findutils' from the 'Base' category (it should already be selected). DOWNLOAD: ========= Note that downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) aren't allowed due to bandwidth limitations. This means that you will need to find a mirror which has this update, please choose the one nearest to you: http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html QUESTIONS: ========== If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing list is the appropriate place. - -- Eric Blake volunteer cygwin findutils maintainer CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO: ================================= To unsubscribe to the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the "List-Unsubscribe: " tag in the email header of this message.
