Subject: %Y format directive breaks subsequent %y directives in find

Date: Fri, 29 Jul 2005 00:35:48 +0200

Package: findutils
Version: 4.2.22-2
Severity: normal

See the following behaviour:
isaac@lupin:/tmp/findbug$ ls -l
total 1
lrwxrwxrwx  1 isaac isaac    4 2005-07-29 00:20 bar -> foo/
drwxr-xr-x  2 isaac isaac 1024 2005-07-29 00:20 foo
isaac@lupin:/tmp/findbug$ find . -printf "%y %Y\n"
d d
d d
l d
isaac@lupin:/tmp/findbug$ find . -printf "%Y %y\n"
d d
d d
d d
isaac@lupin:/tmp/findbug$

I guess the output in the second "find" should be:
d d
d d
d l

Best regards
