[Bug 659771] Re: find does not handle -size parameter 1 correctly

[Stefan Wagner]

OK - After a second thought, I come to the conclusion that it might be
better to keep it the way it is. See #5

Title:
  find does not handle -size parameter 1 correctly

Status in “findutils” package in Ubuntu:
  Opinion
Status in “findutils” package in Debian:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: findutils

  When I use find, to find file smaller dan 1024 bytes like this
  $ find -size -1024c

  the example result is:
  ./Briefcase/Test/pasfoto.jpg.meta
  ./Briefcase/cimg0087.jpg.meta
  ./Briefcase.meta

  However, when switching to the k multiplier I don't get any result until I use 2, instead of 1:
  $ find -size -1k
  $ find -size -2k
  ./Briefcase/Test/pasfoto.jpg.meta
  ./Briefcase/cimg0087.jpg.meta
  ./Briefcase.meta

  The same is true for M and G; It seems there's a bug in handling 1's
  in the -size parameter.
