HP List the directories, having given pattern in the directories name, sorted by creation date
It is for HP-Unix B.11.31.

Requirement:

1. List the directories, having given pattern in the directories name, sorted by creation date.
Example: Directories with name "pkg32*" or "pkg33*"

2. On the output of 1. list the directories by creation date as sort order, with creation date display in mm/dd/yyyy format

I tried with;
Code:
find ./ -name "pkg3[23]*" -type d | xargs ls -ld
find ./ -name "pkg3[23]*" -type d -exec ls -ld {} \; | awk '{print $6,$7,$8,$9}'

But I want the output to be sorted with creation date;

Code:
$ find ./ -name "pkg3[2]*" -type d -exec ls -ld {} \; | awk '{print $6,$7,$8,$9}'
