Package: locate
Version: 4.4.2-4
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Based on looking at bug #300631, and the behavior of 'updatedb' on my
systems, it appears that, at some point between version 4.2.20-1 and
4.4.2-4 (possibly as part of the transition of locate and updatedb from
the 'findutils' package to the 'locate' package), the 'nfs4' exclusion
was lost.

Note that #300631 appears to indicate the possibility that the 'nfs4'
exclusion took effect in /etc/updatedb.conf, which appears to no longer
exist.

Adding the 'nfs4' string to the 'PRUNEFS' variable in
/usr/bin/updatedb.findutils (where 'nfs' and 'NFS' are already present)
solves the problem on my systems.

Thanks/best,
