slocate has now been replaced by mlocate in the desktop install.

[Bug 186306] Re: updatedb runs every day
Hi, I've noticed that sometimes when updatedb runs during start-up, Gnome Settings Daemon crashes, or probably a better description would be times out. The result is that your normal windowing theme is not loaded, and Gnome falls back to it's default which looks very dated and unprofessional. This has happened to me intermittently on every version of Ubuntu I've used (which is most of them, including 7.10, which I'm using at the moment). I'm pretty sure that this timeout is caused by updatedb blocking the hard drive. By the sounds of it this is getting sorted soon anyways, but I couldn't find any reference to this issue on Launchpad, hence this post!

Triaged to Confirmed. slocate is slow and annoying at startup. Need to move to acron or smarter crontab so it's not messing up a new user's experience. ** Changed in: slocate (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed -- updatedb runs every day https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/186306 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This is probably getting dealt with for Hardy as part of the hardy- reducing-duplication blueprint (linked). -- updatedb runs every day https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/186306 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
