What happened to the "locate" command in 10.1 in the past couple of weeks? It suddenly vanished. I used it not that long ago (?a couple of weeks ago) and now I get the error message '-bash: locate: command not found'!
Cheers.
Try "locate locate". ;-)
Hmm.. doesn't do a thing, James. Still get the same error message... Ah, maybe if I reverse this and type "locate locate"? Nah, still the same error message.
Did you recently upgrade and forget to install findutils-locate?
Well, I didn't and I have never deliberately installed 'findutils-locate' (that I can remember), but this program is not installed. I'll install it now and will remember to do so in the future. Thanks for the solution :-) . Cheers. -- This computer is environment-friendly and is running on OpenSuSE 10.1
