findutils-locate was never dropped, i still use it next to beagle.

I gues you never realy used beagle because of the way you compare it
with locate.
It realy isn't the same thing.
Can you use locate to find a persons name in a email or in a chat log?
I think not.

If you don't want beagle, don't use it, remove it and use
findutils-locate wich is still part of the SUSE package.
