1 Hi.
2 I've just stumbled on an abnormality for which I've yet no explanation.
3 Posting for possible general interest.

5 Yesterday ebuild unpack started to emit errors:
6
7 find: unrecognized: -mindepth
8 BusyBox v1.13.2 (2009-09-02 17:33:46 IDT) multi-call binary
9
10 Usage: find [PATH...] [EXPRESSION]
11
12
13 This happened because I had a /bin/find, identical to /bin/busybox
14
15 amit0 ~ # ls -la /bin/find /bin/busybox
16 -rwxr-xr-x 176 root root 981048 Sep 2 17:35 /bin/busybox*
17 -rwxr-xr-x 176 root root 981048 Sep 2 17:35 /bin/find*
18
19 /bin/find isn't associated with any package, but it's creation time
20 coincides with the last emerge of busybox, 1.8.2 -> 1.13.2.
21
22 It seems that all of busybox's embedded exe's (I have 130) were created
23 on my FS.
24
25 FYI
