Yea I added mlocate as replacement for findutils because it is way faster in
both search and logging.
FWIW the group issue should be solved but I am bit torn about the solution.
1) Upstream uses sgid which lets you to read the whole file and determine what
you can see and what not. And our security won't let this happen altho all
other distros just go with it and are happy about :(
2) We have the group while locate command itself does not show files you can't
access you still can read the db file completely because you are in the group.
3) We can reduce the scope of usability to index only as nobody:nobody and thus
allow everyone to read our file, but then nothing of importance would be there
which severly impacts the actual usability of the thing.
