I have discovered, with help form Bernhard Voelker, a user of openSUSE, that the version of findutils that I am using (4.4.2) contains a bug that explains crashes in my use case. He is using (4.5.12) and recommends >=(4.5.10)
I have attempted to use wheezy-backports using instructions at: http://backports.debian.org/Instructions/ I have wheezy-backports in my sources.list. I have run apt-get update, but I get root@big:/etc/apt# aptitude -t wheezy-backports install findutils No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed. 0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 72 not upgraded. Need to get 0 B of archives. After unpacking 0 B will be used. This is pretty clear indication that wheezy-backports won't help, Or did I make a mistake? What mistake? An alternative source of findutils that fits with Wheezy? Where? How?
