[Bug 189462] Re: slocate cron job fails if /etc/updatedb.conf not found

2014-11-23 Thread Seth
@r0lf I always  wonder what it is that makes people suddenly find the
time to close tickets like this.

Almost 7 years after they have been reported.

Of course it's no longer relevant. The bloddy package has even been
removed over a year ago.

Thanks for the update though :) I hope it was a side effect of automatic
bug db cleanup :)

[Bug 189462] Re: slocate cron job fails if /etc/updatedb.conf not found

2010-11-29 Thread Colin Watson
My apologies that the Ubuntu team has taken so long to get around to
dealing with this bug.

Matt LaPlante: Thanks for your patch!  My feeling is that causing
slocate to own /etc/updatedb.conf is probably not actually the best
approach here.  Doing that introduces questions of upgrade handling (as
is often the case when files move between packages) which aren't easy to
answer quickly.  It might be the case that it all works out, but we'd
have to consider dapper->hardy-updates, hardy->hardy-updates, hardy-
updates->lucid, etc., and ideally for a stable update I'd prefer that we
could say confidently that no such issues will arise.

Can I suggest using something like /etc/updatedb.conf.slocate instead,
passing the appropriate -c parameter to slocate?  This should be safer.
I know it's a bit of a pain for the configuration file not to be the
same as in other releases, but since its contents and package ownership
vary anyway, and since this was already broken for hardy users who
haven't followed our move to mlocate, I think this should be OK.

Not according to me. This was an upgrade issue for me (breaking my

slocate install as well).

There has been another distrelease since so

[Bug 189462] Re: slocate cron job fails if /etc/updatedb.conf not found

2009-01-21 Thread Matt LaPlante
To summarize the situation:

The README.debian in slocate claims that "Secure Locate uses
/etc/updatedb.conf which is packaged in 'findutils'. This file is not
packaged with Secure Locate."  That's all well and good, except evidence
indicates that findutils no longer supplies /etc/updatedb.conf.  From
findutils-4.4.0/debian/changelog: "Drop misnamed /etc/updatedb.conf and
include its contents in cron.daily file. (updatedb.conf only configured
the cronjob, but not any invocation of updatedb.)"

The quick fix would appear to be simply installing the updatedb.conf
that ships with slocate.  I've created a package below which I believe
will accomplish this.

slocate_3.1-1.1ubuntu4~4 is available in my PPA:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/cybrmatt/ubuntu intrepid main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/cybrmatt/ubuntu intrepid main

debdiff is attached

Please test.

2008-11-16 Thread NicDumZ
It also affects updatedb , because updatedb and slocate -u have the same
behavior.

An interesting thing to notice, however, is that even if a so-called fatal 
error is raised, the [ms]?locate database is still updated:
> locate bochs
> sudo updatedb 
[sudo] password for [snip]: 
updatedb: fatal error: load_file: Could not open file: /etc/updatedb.conf: No 
such file or directory

/var/cache/apt/archives/bochs_2.3.7-1ubuntu1_i386.deb
[snip, lot of results]

I do not exactly know how the default behavior differs from the "custom"
behavior intended with a correct /etc/updateconf.db but I would still
state that the troubles caused by this bug seem to be minor...

No need to shout at another user, mate. That was just my opinion. I was
frustrated by this change just like you. I chose to 'bend' (change of
habit). I still hate it because I am regularly typing mlocate instead of
slocate on my few Feisty boxes left around. I'm sorry to hear that the
slocate package is still in a broken state. I see this thread as an
example how users are welcome to shed their light, tell their
frustrations etc. etc.

I don't think it is realistic to expect every single frustration to be
ironed-out. After all, we all have make priorities. It turns out Ubuntu
didn't share ours in this issue. Bugger. We still let them know. I know
for a fact that that helps Ubuntu devs to be aware of what users need.

Cheers,
Seth

Daily reindexing is not necessary!
For years we used to call updatedb on demand only.
As of laptop users (and not only them) the system load and power consumation 
and installation slowdown produced by trackerd and some other stuff (that scans 
the disc multiple time during installation) is much more disturbing than the 
simple filename scan of *locate!

The issue is not fixed!
Althought the fix would be very very easy, the hardy package is still broken!
And hardy as a LTS is supposed to be maintained really well.

Unfortunately it gets more and more clear that Ubuntu's interpretation
of the term "support" is a joke.

2008-06-16 Thread Seth
Matt, i can see how you are trying to simplify the matter, and I
appreciate it, because it *is* helping me understand what happens.

However, as a distro I think there is also the goal of not 'surprising'
your users. Both me and Akkana have been raising (imho) very valid
points where, from a usage experience, the operation of their system is
*actually* broken, by upgrading to hardy, and maintaining slocate
installed (nothing special in fact).

Now it may be true, that it *actually* shows a latent issue in the
packaging of slocate. I don't think the argument is relevant here,
though, as slocate was standard in all previous versions of all Ubuntu
version I worked with, and only upgrading to Hardy (a supported
operation!) breaks it.

So, at the least, it could be said that it slipped through release
testing. No biggie, but I hope this again explains to *you* why you are
getting uninterested responses if you (correctly) rationalize the
problem away :)

Anyways, I consider this issue well-fixed, and I hope users/dev gap is a
little more bridged on this one :)

[Bug 189462] Re: slocate cron job fails if /etc/updatedb.conf not found

2008-06-15 Thread Matt LaPlante
I don't know what thread you were reading, but I didn't see anywhere in
the conversation that you linked that slocate would be removed.  The
conversation focused mainly on the possibility of not shipping it by
default in desktop installs.  It didn't really even address server
installations, nor did it at any point appear to reach a clear
conclusion.

Regardless, just because something isn't part of the default install
doesn't mean that it isn't supported any longer.  The vast majority of
the apt packages are not installed by default, but they're supported all
the same.  Any package whose maintainer is the Ubuntu Devs is bound to
be kept up to some degree... if they really wanted to cease support for
a product it would be removed altogether, which I've seen no evidence
of.

mlocate has become preferable because the algorithm it uses to update
its database is more efficient, resulting in less of a system penalty.
It may or may not also be more well supported upstream (but I haven't
checked lately).

In bash:
~# alias slocate='mlocate'

It has been said very clearly that https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-

expect anything to be 'fixed' if the intention is to drop it completely.

Though I have not much idea why the final result is to add mlocate
instead. For those who need command line access, change your habit is
the way to go. Or maybe symlink.

2008-05-02 Thread Seth
I hit the problem too. I upgraded to hardy, reviewed the packages
'deinstalled' (get-selections) and thought: hey, don't junk slocate, I
use that!

So I apt-get install slocate, but it won't fly:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/alternatives$ sudo updatedb
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/alternatives$ slocate bla
slocate: fatal error: Could not find user database 
'/var/lib/slocate/slocate.db':  No such file or directory

I think it is broken. For one, it could be symlinked (perhaps using
update-alternatives). Furthermore, it should be documented somewhere. It
was never on a list of 'these packages are no longer supported' when
deciding to upgrade.

I'll have a look at mlocate, but I feel bad about having to 'magically'
guess what new command to use instead of slocate

[Bug 189462] Re: slocate cron job fails if /etc/updatedb.conf not found

2008-04-30 Thread Matt "Cyber Dog" LaPlante
@Akkana: The slocate package should not depend on mlocate.  mlocate was
written after slocate, and designed to function identically (with the
exception of the update algorithm used by updatedb) to it.  Hence, they
both use the same /etc/updatedb.conf file.  The mlocate package is
"complete" and includes this file as it should.  The slocate package is
simply broken because it does not include a copy of this file as well.

Using the version included with the mlocate package should work fine as
a workaround, however it's important to know this is simply a side-
effect of the packaging and not because there's a dependency there.
