But it notes "Though as of time of writing, LXFind is in the Lubuntu PPA and is forthcoming shortly." Elsewhere in a few slim references it seems to be expected for 12.10. But again, among the few references, a number of users find that the prescribed installation installs LXFinder instead of LXFind, and LXFinder does not work. And that is what I found. I set LXFinder searching for a known-existing file, and it did not find it, but did generate a slew of "permission denied" errors. I'll add that the LXFinder shortcut does indeed point to /user/bin/lxfind, so this is not a simple matter of a mis-constructed shortcut. My installation commands: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:lubuntu-desktop/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install -y lxfind One thing I notice about the documentation statement, though, is that it refers to the Lubuntu PPA rather than the lubuntu-desktop PPA which I used in my installation. Did I use an obsolete PPA, or is there another good explanation here (or even a bad but accurate explanation)? I'll also observe here that I regard GUI file search as a necessary part of the software stack. It seems like something that's just gotta work on a modern O/S. And I'm testing LXFind because I found that Catfish generates a disturbing error result when it can't find a match.
