Re: [Tcllib-devel] fileutil::find in tcllib 1.17 does not come back when used on /sys/devices

[Andreas K. <and...@ac...>]

Thank you for the report.

Please report this at the ticket system at
    https://core.tcl.tk/tcllib/tktnew
An anon login is enough to be allowed to make tickets.

Looking at the history of the file, at
    https://core.tcl.tk/tcllib/finfo?name=modules/fileutil/fileutil.tcl&ci=4dc136d4389178dc

only the top 4 changes were made after 1.16 (Feb 11, 2014) was released.
Right now I suspect the top-most, last change, because it is the only
one directly reworking "find" a bit.

This "/sys/devices" directory, is that a special filesystem on linux ?
Or some other platform ?
