Details:

Hello!

I was trying to find files from directory full of symlinks and exec file on
them, but wasn't able to do so. Find just show info about symlinks, instead of
files they lead to, despite option -L was specified

Here is an example:

address@hidden:~# find --version

address@hidden:~# mkdir /temp
address@hidden:~# mkdir /temp2
address@hidden:~# echo "test" > /temp/file0.txt
address@hidden:~# ln -s /temp/file0.txt /temp2/file
address@hidden:~# find -L /temp2/ -type f -exec file '{}' \;
/temp2/file: symbolic link to /temp/file0.txt
