Description Pat Riehecky 2022-06-16 20:20:23 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #2097886 +++

Description of problem:
/var/cache/fscache is the default cache directory for cachefilesd.  Similar to caching for other applications, these files make no sense to be indexed by default.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mlocate-0.26-300.fc36

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. mount something with `fsc`
2. load some files
3. run updatedb

Actual results:
cache stubfiles are put into the db

Expected results:
these would be ignored

Additional info:

Comment 1 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2022-08-17 11:38:11 UTC
I added updatedb.conf with 
PRUNEPATHS = "/dev /sys /proc /run /var/cache"

I don't think it makes sense to index anything under /var/cache.

Does updatedb.conf really need a comment pointing to this bug though?
