find: paths must precede expression

What if we get this:

# find ./ -iname *package*
find: paths must precede expression: package.tar.gz
Usage: find [-H] [-L] [-P] [-Olevel] [-D help|tree|search|stat|rates|opt|exec] [path…] [expression]
#

Then use single quotes or double quotes instead:

# find ./ -iname '*package*'

Cheers,
TK
