Hi - I downloaded find-utils for solaris 10 sparc machines, and
installed it on my SunBlade 2000. When I run updatedb, a call to "sort"
runs out of memory. I changed each call to sort to sort -S 500000, and
it no longer runs out of memory. Instead, it runs for about a second,
produces the error message
sort: missing NEWLINE added at end of input file STDIN
and produces a /usr/local/var/locatedb of one line, saying
LOCATE02/
findutils tests for GNU sort at compile time. If it finds it, it uses
"sort -z" and if not it uses "sort". Did you install a binary
package of findutis (configured for use with GNU findutils) without
GNU sort being present?
