I realized I had this problem yesterday and in antiX 7.1.

This is my updatedb.conf in fluxbuntu. I HAVE NOT tried this in antiX yet, but now that you posted this I will later today.

Code: Select all
# This file sets environment variables which are used by updatedb

# Global options for invocations of find(1)
FINDOPTIONS='-ignore_readdir_race'
export FINDOPTIONS
# filesystems which are pruned from updatedb database
PRUNEFS="NFS nfs nfs4 afs binfmt_misc proc smbfs autofs iso9660 ncpfs coda devpts ftpfs devfs mfs shfs sysfs cifs lustre_lite tmpfs usbfs udf"
export PRUNEFS
# paths which are pruned from updatedb database
PRUNEPATHS="/tmp /usr/tmp /var/tmp /afs /amd /alex /var/spool /sfs /media"
export PRUNEPATHS
# netpaths which are added
NETPATHS=""
export NETPATHS
# run find as this user
LOCALUSER="nobody"
export LOCALUSER
# cron.daily/find: run at this priority -- higher number means lower priority
# (this is relative to the default which cron sets, which is usually +5)
NICE=10
export NICE
# cron.daily: I/O priority
# 1 for real time, 2 for best-effort (3 for idle is only allowed for root!)
IONICE_CLASS=2
export IONICE_CLASS
# 0-7 (for IONICE_CLASS 1 and 2 only), 0=highest, 7=lowest
IONICE_PRIORITY=7
export IONICE_PRIORITY


EDIT: fixed typo and put in bold[/b]

ok, well then it was not a bad install, so I can rule that out!

Using that configuration file I got from my other machine and saving it to /etc/updatedb.conf worked flawlessly.

This still needs to be fixed in the final release of 7.2. I just can't believe I didn't catch this earlier in 7.1

Fixed for 7.2 preview2.

Also mlocate replaces slocate.

Thanks for finding it.
