I suggest adding the "-u" parameter on the sort that feeds frcode. That way duplicate entries that may have been introduced by specifying overlapping directories with "--localpaths" will be pruned. The justification is that, although the find command may have found the item more than once, but the item itself only exists once. Basically, replace: } | $sort -f | $frcode $frcode_options > $LOCATE_DB.n with } | $sort -fu | $frcode $frcode_options > $LOCATE_DB.n I actually make this change whenever I install findutils, and thought I should pass it back. Thanks for the great set of utilities.
