Description of problem: When removing nfs* from the line PRUNEFS in the file /etc/updatedb.conf nfs mounts do not get indexed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mlocate-0.26-25.fc32.x86_64. How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. mount an nfs share on a mount point not excluded by PRUNEPATHS in updatedb.conf 2. execute /usr/libexec/mlocate-run-updatedb 3. see if filenames on the nfs mount can be found with the locate utility Actual results: Files on the nfs mount can not be found with the locate utility Expected results: Files on the nfs mount can be found with the locate utility Additional info: The problem is created by the /usr/libexec/mlocate-run-updatedb script. In this script there is a variable nodevs defined in a way that nfs* gets included and then updatedb is run with these extra entries in nodevs. As a work around i change the line nodevs=$(< /proc/filesystems awk '$1 == "nodev" && $2 != "rootfs" && $2 != "zfs" { print $2 }') to nodevs=$(< /proc/filesystems awk '$1 == "nodev" && $2 != "rootfs" && $2 != "zfs" && $2 !~ "nfs" { print $2 }') I also noticed the URL in the package is poiting to an old website: $ rpm -qi mlocate | grep ^URL URL : https://fedorahosted.org/mlocate/ Please update.
