If I run
% updatedb --paths=/home/krugman --output=/home/krugman/.locatedb
the command returns *instantly* (even though there are a few
gigabytes' worth of files under /home/krugman), and the output file
is only 10 bytes. Needless to say
% locate -d /home/krugman/.locatedb file_i_know_exists
always fails (no output and a nonzero return value).
Bug or feature?
