Package: findutils
Version: 4.2.26-2
Severity: wishlist

I notice I am always encountering:
Configuration file `/etc/updatedb.conf'
 ==> Modified (by you or by a script) since installation.
 ==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version.

So we see that if there was a /etc/updatedb.conf.local that was 'sourced' say
after /etc/updatedb, then users could put extra junk there, sort of
like the ppp package structure... and wouldn't trigger the question
upon installation as above.
