Is often seen but still wrong and it won't work as expected. A file glob returns a list of files (or the glob itself if no file of that pattern exists).You can't use it as input to a test -f.
The purpose of those comands are to find the newest file in a directory acvrdind to system date, and it has to be recursively found in each directory.

dpkg-statoverride - override ownership and mode of files
SYNOPSIS
dpkg-statoverride [option...] command
DESCRIPTION
`stat overrides' are a way to tell dpkg(1) to use a different owner or mode for a file when a package is installed. (note: I use the word
`file' here, but in reality this can be any filesystem object that dpkg handles, including directories, devices, etc.). This can be used to
force programs that are normally setuid to be install without a setuid flag, or only executable by a certain group.
dpkg-statoverride is a utility to manage the list of stat overrides. It has three basic functions: adding, removing and listing overrides.
COMMANDS --add user group mode file
Add an override for file. file does not need to exist when this command is used; the override will be stored and used later. Users
and groups can be specified by their name (for example root or nobody), or by their number by prepending the number with a `#' (for
example #0 or #65534). The mode needs to be specified in octal.
If --update is specified and file exists, it is immediately set to the new owner and mode.
--remove file
Remove an override for file, the status of file is left unchanged by this command.
--list [glob-pattern]
List all overrides. If a glob pattern is specified restrict the output to overrides which match the glob. If there are no overrides
or none match the glob dpkg-statoverride will exit with an exitcode of 1.
--help Show the usage message and exit.
--version
Show the version and exit.
OPTIONS --admindir directory
Change the directory of the dpkg database where the statoverride file is also stored. Defaults to /var/lib/dpkg.
--force
Force an action, even if a sanity check would otherwise prohibit it. This is necessary to override an existing override.
--update
Immediately try to change the file to the new owner and mode if it exists.
--quiet
Be less verbose about what we do.
ENVIRONMENT
DPKG_ADMINDIR
If set and the --admindir option has not been specified, it will be used as the dpkg data directory.
FILES
/var/lib/dpkg/statoverride
File which contains the current list of stat overrides of the system. It is located in the dpkg administration directory, along with
other files important to dpkg, such as `status' or `available'.
Note: dpkg-statoverride preserves the old copy of this file, with extension "-old", before replacing it with the new one.
