>Organization:
PKIx
>Environment:
System: FreeBSD ns1.pkix.net 4.8-STABLE FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE #1: Fri May 2 01:39:29 EDT 2003 root@ns1.pkix.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/NORMAL i386

>Description:

The "&& find -d *" commands in http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/porting-autoplist.html don't work and should be replaced with "find ."

>How-To-Repeat:

# mkdir /var/tmp/port-name
# (cd /var/tmp/port-name && find -d * -type d) | sort -r > OLD-DIRS
find: *: No such file or directory

>Fix:

# (cd /var/tmp/port-name && find . -type d) | sort -r > OLD-DIRS

...works fine.
