Install the slocate package. It behaves properly. Then delete your old locate database (/var/lib/locate/locatedb), so that people can't use the old locate. slocate will automatically make a symlink from locate to its own binary, so you can still use the "locate" command. - -- Hubert Chan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/71FDA37F Fingerprint: 6CC5 822D 2E55 494C 81DD 6F2C 6518 54DF 71FD A37F Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net.
