See bug nr #????, I changed /etc/cron.daily/locate as follows --- /etc/cron.daily/locate.orig 2007-12-03 07:07:44.000000000 +0100 +++ /etc/cron.daily/locate 2007-12-03 07:09:39.000000000 +0100 @@ -33,6 +33,9 @@ if [ -r /etc/updatedb.findutils.cron.local ] ; then . /etc/updatedb.findutils.cron.local fi +if [ "$DISABLE_CRONJOB" = 1 ] ; then + exit 0 +fi export FINDOPTIONS PRUNEFS PRUNEPATHS NETPATHS LOCALUSER NICE if getent passwd $LOCALUSER > /dev/null ; then and echo-ed DISABLE_CRONJOB=1 >> /etc/updatedb.findutils.cron.local Again, sorry for reopening, but I didn't get your explanation, and thanks for the second time explanation.
