Description

Revision 7668/ch6-findutils moves 'find' from /usr/bin to /bin. However, this breaks the 'updatedb' script which expects 'find' to be located in /usr/bin as it was at compile time.

Possible fixes:

sed -i -e 's@BINDIR=/usr/bin@BINDIR=/bin@' /usr/bin/updatedb

or, ln -s ../../bin/find /usr/bin

or, invoke updatedb as follows: 'BINDIR=/bin updatedb [args]'
