Hello... openSUSE 12.1 / LXDE / 3.1.0-1.2-desktop / 32-bit While running locate tonight I got the following message... locate: warning: database `/var/lib/locatedb' is more than 8 days old (actual age is 12.2 days) ... which seems strange since this has always been automatically done daily by cron (/etc/cron.daily/suse-updatedb). According to my yast2>software management>package history, cron was auto-updated to 4.2 on 8th December. The last successful cron run of the database update was apparently on 7th December, the day before this cron update. (also apparently auto-updated on that date was susefirewall2 but I don't know if that also is somehow related). The log output from cron also changed. Here are the relevant lines from /var/log/messages from 7th December versus 8th December: Dec 7 21:00:01 msbmain7 run-crons[15107]: logrotate: OK Dec 7 21:00:08 msbmain7 run-crons[15107]: opensuse.org-online_update: OK Dec 7 21:00:08 msbmain7 run-crons[15107]: packagekit-background.cron: OK Dec 7 21:00:08 msbmain7 run-crons[15107]: suse-clean_catman: OK Dec 7 21:00:11 msbmain7 run-crons[15107]: suse-do_mandb: OK Dec 7 21:00:11 msbmain7 su: (to nobody) root on none Dec 7 21:00:11 msbmain7 su: pam_systemd(su:session): Failed to create session: Invalid argument Dec 7 21:00:11 msbmain7 su: (to nobody) root on none Dec 7 21:00:11 msbmain7 su: pam_systemd(su:session): Failed to create session: Invalid argument Dec 7 21:00:11 msbmain7 su: (to nobody) root on none Dec 7 21:00:11 msbmain7 su: pam_systemd(su:session): Failed to create session: Invalid argument Dec 7 21:00:14 msbmain7 run-crons[15107]: suse-updatedb: OK Dec 7 21:00:14 msbmain7 run-crons[15107]: suse.de-backup-rc.config: OK Dec 7 21:00:29 msbmain7 run-crons[15107]: suse.de-backup-rpmdb: OK Dec 7 21:00:29 msbmain7 run-crons[15107]: suse.de-check-battery: OK Dec 7 21:00:29 msbmain7 run-crons[15107]: suse.de-clean-tmp: OK Dec 7 21:00:29 msbmain7 run-crons[15107]: suse.de-cron-local: OK Dec 8 21:00:01 msbmain7 run-crons[9639]: logrotate: OK Dec 8 21:00:20 msbmain7 systemd[1]: Reloading.
