Description Havoc Pennington 2002-09-26 21:00:25 UTC 
File names can contain a newline, see 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=74363

Using "find -print0" would be more robust.
Comment 1 Dennis Cranston 2002-09-26 21:21:02 UTC 
Sorry, but '-print0' is not compatible with the Solaris and AIX find
commands.
Comment 2 Havoc Pennington 2002-09-26 21:47:31 UTC 
All you have to do is use -print0 if available on the platform, 
and then call g_io_channel_set_line_term() 
on the IO channel from the pipe to set the terminator to ("",1) if
appropriate...

BTW, I never could read the redhat bug report -- "Permission denied.
Sorry; you do not have the permissions necessary to see bug 74363."
Comment 4 Havoc Pennington 2002-10-08 01:15:25 UTC 
Ah, sorry. Fixed the report.
