fd? fdfind? fdclone? #1524

Closed Golddouble closed 8 months ago

Quote from your manual:

On Debian

If you run Debian Buster or newer, you can install the officially maintained Debian package:

sudo apt-get install fd-find

Note that the binary is called fdfind as the binary name fd is already used by another package. It is recommended that after installation, you add a link to fd by executing command ln -s $(which fdfind) ~/.local/bin/fd, in order to use fd in the same way as in this documentation. Make sure that $HOME/.local/bin is in your $PATH.

What version of fd are you using?

$ fd --version
The command 'fd' was not found, but can be installed with sudo apt install fdclone
$ fdfind --version
fdfind 8.6.0

I use MX-Linux 23. Question 1: Do I understand right, that fdfind is actually the right command if I want to use "sharkdp/fd" ? Or is there an other search programme with the command "fdfind"?

Question 2: Or is fdclone the right command and package to install, when I want to use sharkdp/fd" ?

Question 3: Or is fdmusl the correct command, when I want to use sharkdp/fd" ?

Thank you.

On debian, if you installed from the official apt repository, it is fdfind.
