Bug Description
findutils includes /usr/bin/oldfind, but the manpage doesn't give any indication as to what this is for.
/usr/share/
The NEWS.gz file mentions it in the changes for version 4.4.1, but it should be documented in a less transient place. And as a user it doesn't help anyway: I don't know what fts() is, or under what circumstances I should use oldfind instead of find.
Please make man oldfind give information on what oldfind is for. Thanks.
