[Denis Gubanov]

glusterfind (part of glusterfs-client package) does not work

# glusterfind
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/glusterfind", line 14, in <module>
    from glusterfind.main import main
ImportError: No module named glusterfind.main

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Luc Bruninx (luc2005)]

The python script "/usr/bin/glusterfind" try to import module "/usr/libexec/glusterfs/". But this path don't exists on Ubuntu.

The glusterfind module files are located in "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/glusterfs/" on x86_64 system.

An "easy" workaround is to create a symbolic link from "/usr/libexec" to "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu".

$> sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu /usr/libexec

However, the name of the source directory (x86_64-linux-gnu) varies depending on the system arch.
