The error diagnostic for wrong invocations with option that require numeric arguments (-inum, -links, -gid, -uid) was wrong and not helpful: $ find -gid find: invalid argument `-gid' to `-gid' * find/parser.c (parse_gid): Remove changing back of the ARG_PTR in the error case; thus simplify. (parse_inum,parse_links,parse_uid): Likewise. (get_num): While at it, mention -gid and -uid in the comment as well. (insert_num): Also improve the error diagnostic in the case the user has provided a non-numeric argument. Previously, it was just "invalid argument". * tests/find/opt-numeric-arg.sh: Add test. * tests/local.mk: Reference it. * NEWS (Bug Fixes): Mention the fix.
