-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I've discovered that adding '/windows' to the UPDATEDB_PRUNEPATHS variable through the YaST Editor for Sysconfig Files has no effect on the contents of the output of locate. IOW, after I change the setting and run updatedb as root, I still get a listing of what's under /windows. This is the variable in /etc/sysconfig/locate: UPDATEDB_PRUNEPATHS="/mnt /cdrom /tmp /usr/tmp /var/tmp /var/spool /proc /media /windows" Am I wrong to think this will prevent /windows from being added to the database? Do I need to blow away the database and start over? That is, are these old entries which haven't been removed?
