Bug 108099 – dev-lang/perl/perl-5.8.7-r1and others perl ebuilds containing "find -depth " without a <depth>

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Toralf Förster 2005-10-04 11:18:24 UTC]

Why the parameter '-depth' is used without a number : ?

n22 /usr/portage/dev-lang/perl # grep depth *.ebuild
perl-5.8.6-r5.ebuild:   find . -depth -type d | xargs -r rmdir &> /dev/null
perl-5.8.6-r5.ebuild:                   find ${ROOT}/$DIR -depth -type d | xargs
-r rmdir &> /dev/null
perl-5.8.6-r6.ebuild:   find . -depth -type d | xargs -r rmdir &> /dev/null
perl-5.8.6-r6.ebuild:                   find ${ROOT}/$DIR -depth -type d | xargs
-r rmdir &> /dev/null
perl-5.8.7-r1.ebuild:   find . -depth -type d | xargs -r rmdir &> /dev/null
perl-5.8.7-r1.ebuild:                   find ${ROOT}/$DIR -depth -type d | xargs
-r rmdir &> /dev/null
perl-5.8.7.ebuild:      find . -depth -type d | xargs -r rmdir &> /dev/null
perl-5.8.7.ebuild:                      find ${ROOT}/$DIR -depth -type d | xargs
-r rmdir &> /dev/null
