While OpenSolaris makes GNU findutils available, GNU locate isn't built and
bundled with it.  Instead, we provide slocate, in the package SUNWslocate.
Sadly "pkg search locate" doesn't return it, as it neither provides a file
called "locate" nor has "locate" in its package description.

"pkg install SUNWslocate" should get you the functionality, though I'll
note that it doesn't deliver either a service or a cron job that creates
and maintains the database; you'll have to do that for yourself.
