Suggestions to use find/xargs/grep shall be flamed.  To be fair, grep is
fine for my home directory.  Problems that I really need the search
system for are things that are "over there, somewhere, in some strange
directory that I don't know a priori".

I don't need instant/online/concurrent updating as I'm primarily
interested in indexing things like /usr/include, /usr/man, etc. so that
when I need to figure out which blasted file has the definition for
ENOBUFS I don't have to digging all over creation.

beagle?

That's one.  Others are Rekoll and Pinot.  There are others.

Not *one* of the has an RPM for RHEL that I can see.

Worse, Beagle uses Mono (open source C#). I avoid Mono like the Microsoft plague it is.
