Package: dlocate
Version: 0.5-0.3
Severity: wishlist
I'm not sure that this is really wishlist, but anyway:
dlocate requires locate, but does not work with mlocate.
I don't want to install locate because that defeats the entire purpose of
having mlocate (or slocate) - not allowing uses to find files they can't
see.
Is there any way for it to work with mlocate? As far as I know it's
fully compatible.
And also, does it actually need to have it's own database? Can it use the
glocal one?
I know I could install locate and then disable it, so just dlocate would
sue it, but mlocate is a lot faster then slocate or locate, and it would
be nice to be able to use it's speed for dlocate as well.
