I'm not sure why you emailed this list, findutils has nothing to do
with ramzswap or compcache.

More generally, when asking for help on the Internet (or, actually,
anywhere else) it's very useful to explicitly say:

1. What you were trying to achieve
2. What you did
3. What you expected to happen
4. What did happen, including the exact text of any error message you received.

For more hints on how to get more help, please take a look at

Thanks!
James.
