-  Hungarian, Dutch, Slovenian, Swedish, Traditional Chinese,
-  Polish, Irish, Portuguese, Slovak.
-* Fri Jan 25 2008 schwab@suse.de
-- Update to findutils 4.2.32.
-  ** License changes
-  This version of findutils is now distributed under version 3 (or
-  later) of the GNU GPL.   The documentation is distributed under
-  version 1.2 (or later) of the GNU Free Documentation License.
-  ** Documentation Fixes
-  [#19596]: -printf %%b should be compared with %%s/512, not %%s/1024.
-  ** Bug Fixes
-  [#21568]: When building from CVS in 4.2.x, we now check gnulib out using git
-  instead of CVS.  This fixes Savannah bug 21568, the problem being that
-  git-cvspserevr does not currently support -D, and the ond CVS server
-  for gnulib has been frozen.
-  [#20970]: Trailing slash on directory arguments breaks -name.  "find
-  foo/ -name foo" now correctly matches foo and printf foo/.  See POSIX
-  interp http://www.opengroup.org/austin/interps/uploads/40/14959/AI-186.txt
-  [#20751]: Avoid memory corruption in find -ls that has been present
-  since 4.2.28.
-  [#20662]: Avoid memory leak in find -name and other places affected by
-  gnulib dirname module.  The leak had been present since 4.2.28.
-  [#20310]: configure uses hosts's support status for "sort -z" when
-  generating the updatedb script for use on the target.  This is not a
-  reliable strategy when cross-compiling, so assume no support for -z in
-  that situation.
-  [#20273]: When xargs is successful without consuming all of stdin (for
-  example, with the -E option), and stdin is seekable, xargs now
-  correctly restores the file position, even on platforms where exit()
-  does not follow the POSIX rules of doing likewise.  Likewise for find
-  (for example, with the -ok action).
-  [#19660]: Fix compilation failure on Cygwin.
-  [#15384]: Find misbehaves when parent directory is not readable.
-  ** Enhancements
-  [#20688]: The warning printed by -name or -iname when the pattern to
-  match contains a slash can now be silenced by -nowarn.  This warning
-  was originally introduced unconditionally in 4.2.21.
-* Thu Jul 05 2007 schwab@suse.de
-- Drop clean core script.
-* Sun Jun 03 2007 schwab@suse.de
-- Update to findutils 4.2.31.
-  ** Security Fixes
-  [#20014]: Findutils-4.2.31 includes a patch for a potential security
-  problem in locate.  When locate read an old-format database, it read
-  file names into a fixed-length buffer allocated on the heap without
-  checking for overflow.  Although overflowing a heap buffer if often
-  somewhat safer than overflowing a buffer on the stack, this bug still
-  has potential security implications.
-  All previous releases of findutils are affected by this bug.  It has
-  been assigned CVE number CVE-2007-2452.
-  ** Documentation Fixes
-  [#19596]: Corrected the documentation for "find -printf %%b".
-  [#19483]: updatedb manpage has inconsistent highlighting for --help
-  option.
-  [#19155]: Fixed typo in the output of "locate --help".
-  ** Other Bug Fixes
-  [#19658]: When cross-compiling, "make clean" no longer deletes the
-  generated file doc/regexprops.texi, because there is no way to
-  regenerate it.
-  [#19484]: Decompressed data is wrong in locate if the first filename
-  indexed by updatedb starts with a space (instead of a slash).
-  ** Other Changes
-  Findutils has switched to a new way of building the code from gnulib.
-  There should be no functional difference; the change should not be
-  visible to those using the findutils binaries, except for changes to
-  the output of "find --version", which should now show the version of
-  Gnulib which was used.
-* Wed Feb 28 2007 schwab@suse.de
-- Update to findutils 4.2.30.
-  ** Bug Fixes
-  Savannah Bug #13252: The test suite now works on platforms where
-  DejaGnu is based on Tcl 8.3 (previously, 8.4 or later was required).
-  Savannah Bug bug #17861: this version should build on Solaris and HPUX
-  once again.
-  Savannah Bug #18433: findutils now compiles if "--enable-debug" was
-  specified as an option to configure.  Previously this caused a
-  compilation failure in find.
-  ** Documentation Fixes
-  Some typos in the Texinfo manual and one typo in in the usage message
-  for xargs have been fixed.
-* Mon Feb 12 2007 schwab@suse.de
-- Fix memleaks.
-* Mon Dec 04 2006 schwab@suse.de
-- Update to findutils 4.2.29.
-  ** Documentation Fixes
-  The global effect of options (other than -daystart and -follow) is now
-  explained more clearly in the manual page.   Savannah bug #15360.
-  ** Bug Fixes
-  [#17782]: find -execdir now correctly puts the prefix "./" before the
-  expansion of "{}" rather than at the start of the argument it appears
-  in.  Please note that if you use the -exec or -execdir actions with a
-  shell, then you may be vulnerable to shell code injection attacks, so
-  don't do that.  It's not a security defect in find - you should not be
-  passing untrusted data (such as file names chosen by other people) to
-  the shell.
-  [#17477]: find -printf '%%' (that is, where the format has a trailing %%)
-  now generates an error message.
-* Mon Nov 20 2006 schwab@suse.de
-- cron.daily.clean_core: robustify even more.
-* Mon Oct 16 2006 schwab@suse.de
-- cron.daily.clean_core: robustify to avoid matching non-cores [#210987].
-* Mon Aug 07 2006 schwab@suse.de
-- Update to findutils 4.2.28.
-  ** Bug Fixes
-  Savannah bug #15800: If find finds more subdirectories within a parent
-  directory than it previously expected to based on the link count of
-  the parent, the resulting error message now gives the correct
-  directory name (previously an error message was issued but it
-  specified the wrong directory).
-  Savannah bug #16738: "find .... -exec ... {} +" now works if you have
-  a large environment and many files must be passed to the -exec
-  action.  The same problem affected the -execdir action, though since
-  the number of files in a given directory will normally be smaller, the
-  problem was worse for -exec.
-  Savannah bug #16579: Updatedb now works if it is running as a user
-  whose login shell is not actually a shell.
