From 9e408d4bb50cb7c4e9d0a007b95f9fb9d32a16d0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tavian Barnes Date: Mon, 3 Jun 2024 18:30:09 -0400 Subject: Make ELOOP an error again, except for -xtype. POSIX requires an error if (for example) -L encounters a symlink loop. The GNU find change was restricted to -xtype, so add a manual ELOOP test to eval_xtype() for compatibility. This reverts commit 470589cbd9ca3e73d8c01ac3a96cbc065179dcc5.
