Package: dlocate Version: 0.96.1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch X-Debbugs-Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Following the apparent deluge of bugs against dlocate asking for interoperability with slocate and/or dlocate (#101426, #453952, #454471, #456249, #489262), I would like to second the suggestion in #489262 to add a README to dlocate to explain the issue. Below please find an ad-hoc suggestion for /usr/share/doc/dlocate/README.slocate.mlocate.txt Using dlocate with slocate or mlocate ===================================== slocate and mlocate do not provide the frecode tool, which is required by dlocate. Therefore, you cannot use these as a drop-in replacement for the parts of locate which dlocate requires. You can, however, install slocate or mlocate alongside with the original locate, and disable the cron job in locate if you do not want to run it. For more information, please see Debian bug report #454106 /* era */ -- If this were a real .signature, it would suck less. Well, maybe not. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
