typo in man page of "find"

[Dominique Pellé]

In man page of "find" (man find), second paragraph in section DESCRIPTION, I see:

"[...] if you are using it to seach directories [...]"

*seach* should obviously be "search".

I'm using Ubuntu-7.10 (Gutsy)

[Bruno Barrera Yever (bbyever)]

I can confirm this.

Can somebody please forward this upstream?

[Daniel Holbach (dholbach)]

Mathias: can you please take a look at it?

[Bruno Barrera Yever (bbyever)]

for intrepid

[Mathias Gug (mathiaz)]

findutils has been merged in intrepid. The debdiff needs to be updated. Once updated, resubscribe ubuntu-main-sponsors.

Thank you.

[Bruno Barrera Yever (bbyever)]

uhh oops, i subscribed u-u-s... could someone unsubscribe them?

[Mathias Gug (mathiaz)]

Thanks for you new debdiff.

There are two issues with your diff:
 * could you reference the LP bug number in your changelog entry ?
 * could target intrepid instead of hardy in your changelog entry ?

Please attach an updated debdiff and re-subscribed ubuntu-main-sponsors.

Closes bug #68852 and bug #202431.

Please also check the manpage of unstable and forward this to BTS. The typo patch should in all cases be forwarded to BTS. Thanks.

Adding bug watch.

Updating status from Savannah Bug Tracker to launchpad does not to work. I am removing the remote watch (http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?23760) now in order to be able to close this bug.
