So
it's either a bug in find or a bug in the documentation.

When I ran the command as "-size 1G", it returned all the files less
than 1GB in size (I'm not sure if /etc *has* any files greater than
1GB!) So, I agree, its either a bug in the documentation or in find.
Bugzilla it! Let's hear from the developers.

Are you sure? In my case it returned only the zero-length files, same as
what the OP reported. This is on F12, just in case.

Different invocation. Your test and the OP used "-size -1G" (which
_should_ report files less than 1G but apparently reports only 0-byte
files). The reply above was "-size 1G" which _should_ match files that
are exactly 1G in size but according to the above does what "-size -1G"
is supposed to do..

I seem to see behaviour on f12 consistent with both of these reports
(-1G gives 0-byte files, 1G gives <1G files).

Bryn.
