Thanks for introducing me to the xargs command - never heard of it
before, but I am sure it will come in handy some day. :-)
The '-i' option is deprecated in xargs from unstable, though.
Alternative seems to be:
find / -uid OLDUID | xargs -I [] chown NEWUID []
(I've removed the 'sudo' bits, as it would not work with the default
setup.)
Hope this helps,
