Subject: stat failed symlink behavior
Date: Thursday, 17 Sep 2020, 14:25:23

Both find and the staff solution print out error messages for when a symbolic link loops back to itself and -L is specified, but print out the name of the symbolic link when it points to a non-existent file and -L is specified. Why does it do this instead of printing out an error in both cases?
