That should be fixed in fslint-2.26 which is in ubuntu intrepid,
but you can also install the package from:

Thanks! It works fine.

And a second bug that I found is removed too (in 2.26):

fslind 2.16-1 find (most time) no duplicates when the files are not on the same filesystem (example NTFS <-> ext3).

Should I report this bug too?

No, current ubuntu version doesn't have that bug,
so no point reporting.

thanks!
