The `find` program is sometimes unavailable #135

Closed gidfiddle closed 5 years ago

gidfiddle commented 5 years ago

Some of the shell scripts x11docker writes and executes within the container invoke the find program. Inconveniently, some basic images, such as Fedora:29, don't contain the find program.

Perhaps these scripts can be revised to avoid the need for find.

Thank you! The next release will replace find with ls.

I am disappointed about fedora that it forces me to use ls. It is a bad practice to parse the output of ls and find should be used instead. Even the minimalist busybox has a find command, but fedora does not. sigh. It is hard to find GNU/Linux commands that work on every linux system.
