Package: findutils
Version 4.2.31
I used apt-get upgrade and then found that the "locate" command was
missing (didn't work when I needed to use it). Upon investigation, I
find that "locate" was formerly in the findutils package but is no
longer there. So I think that the upgrade installed a new findutils
package which removed the existing "locate" command without fetching
and installing the new "locate" package. Result: locate command
destroyed without a replacement.
Of course I finally fixed this by: "apt-get install locate", but it
took a lot of needless effort to figure out what had happened,
including searching the Internet. It was also annoying when I needed
to use locate but couldn't since it was missing.
