Description of problem: updatedb dies with an assertion failure Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mlocate-0.16-1 How reproducible: Run updatedb Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run updatedb as root 2. Watch for the assertion failure Actual results: updatedb: src/updatedb.c:721: scan_cwd: Assertion `name_size > 1' failed. Expected results: Successful completion Additional info: See attached backtrace generated with gdb. updatedb crashed on a clean Fedora 7 install on my Thinkpad X61 laptop. P.S. I'm filing this bug from a different machine than the one where the bug manifests itself. P.P.S. The "Guided mode" entrance in this Bugzilla is unusable from Firefox. When I get to the page with the list of components (rpm packages), it is unusably slow -- trying to scroll up/down in the list is painfully non-responsive. Some problem with the Javascript, maybe?
