this is the result of:
find . -exec grep -q "function v470" '{}' \; -print
How can I use this data to delete each file under this condition. How do I pipe each result into another command?
I want to do something like:
find . -exec grep -q "function v470" -exec rm {} -rdf
Any help GREATLY appreciated.

cdbs-edit-patch
CDBS-EDIT-PATCH(1) CDBS Documentation CDBS-EDIT-PATCH(1)
NAME
cdbs-edit-patch - create or edit a CDBS simple-patchsys.mk patch
SYNOPSIS
cdbs-edit-patch patchname
DESCRIPTION
cdbs-edit-patch creates or edits patches for use by the CDBS simple-patchsys.mk patch system. For more information about CDBS please see
the documentation under /usr/share/doc/cdbs/.
When patchname exists, cdbs-edit-patch will set up a temporary working source tree, apply all patches up to and including patchname in lex-
icographic order, and spawn an interactive shell for the developer. The developer can then edit files in this working tree. When the
developer is done and exits the shell, cdbs-edit-patch updates patchname to reflect the changes made. To abort the process from the inter-
active shell, exit with a nonzero exit value.
When patchname does not exist, cdbs-edit-patch will assume that a new patch should be created. As with the above scenario, cdbs-edit-patch
will first create a temporary working source tree and apply all patches up to the new patch in lexicographic order. When the shell is
quit, cdbs-edit-patch will create patchname.
