*****************

This section describes some of the error messages sometimes made by
'find', 'xargs', or 'locate', explains them and in some cases provides
advice as to what you should do about this.

   This manual is written in English.  The GNU findutils software
features translations of error messages for many languages.  For this
reason the error messages produced by the programs are made to be as
self-explanatory as possible.  This approach avoids leaving people to
figure out which test an English-language error message corresponds to.
Error messages which are self-explanatory will not normally be mentioned
in this document.  For those messages mentioned in this document, only
the English-language version of the message will be listed.
