Package: findutils
Version: 4.4.2-1+b1
Severity: normal
strange report
dpkg -L findutils | grep daily
-> /etc/cron.daily/find
Seem to be only on system that where upgrade from lenny... But same
version
ii findutils 4.4.2-1+b1
utilities for finding files--find, xargs
apt-file give no result even on computer where dpkg -L give the file...
apt-file search daily/find
As findutils only suggest locate, if this script need to be here in the
last version of the package, it could be nice to put at the beggining
[ -x /usr/bin/updatedb ] || exit
Cron will not send return code 127 anymore ;-)

Hello,
I am closing this bug since
a) it is ancient
b) was caused slocate doing something unsupported (dpkg-divert on a dpkg
conffile)
