Bug 54080 – slocate: PRUNEFS in /etc/updatedb.conf not recognized

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Toralf Förster 2004-06-16 05:50:34 UTC]

slocate /dev/tty gives result:
nhh221 ~ # slocate /dev/tty
/dev/tty0
/dev/tty1
/dev/tty2
...

but it shouldn't because /dev is devfs isn't ? BTW, I use udev now.

Doesn't happen for me.  Can you attach your /etc/updatedb.conf as text/plain?
Use the Create a New Attachment link above.

slocate 'dev/tty' gives the output only as user root, not as normal user
