findutils 4.5.5-1
------------------------------------------
The findutils package contains programs which will help you locate
files on your system.  The find utility searches through a hierarchy
of directories looking for files which match a certain set of criteria
(such as a filename pattern).  The xargs utility builds and executes
command lines from standard input arguments (usually lists of file
names generated by the find command).  The locate utility scans a
database of filenames and displays matches.  The updatedb utility
builds the database for locate.

Runtime requirements (these or newer):
  bash-3.2.49-23

    if you use setup to install this src package, it will be
	 unpacked under /usr/src automatically
  cd /usr/src
  cygport findutils-4.5.5-1 all

This will create:
  /usr/src/findutils-4.5.5-1.tar.bz2
  /usr/src/findutils-4.5.5-1-src.tar.bz2

Or use 'cygport findutils-4.5.5-1 prep' to get a patched source directory
