--- Begin Message ---Package: mlocate Version: 0.26 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, If I run mlocate abcde I am returned a short list of files, with obvious omissions. 19 files in my real-world example If I run mlocate -b abcde I am returned a longer list of files; 194 files in my real world example If I run mlocate --wholename abcde I am returned 1780 files. mlocate's action without either -b or --wholename is completely broken. mlocate should default to either -b or to --wholename The default behaviour should be documented in the man page. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 4.2.0-1-686-pae (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init)
