Package: findutils
Version: 4.2.28-1
Severity: normal

Comments in /etc/updatedb.conf do not provide enough information to
make makes chnges to the file.

PROBLEMS
===============

    # filesystems which are pruned from updatedb database
    PRUNEFS="NFS nfs nfs4 afs binfmt_misc ..."

>From where are the file system names derived? Is this some
mount-compatible name? Why the need for specifying name with varying case like
NFS/nfs?

    # paths which are pruned from updatedb database
    PRUNEPATHS="/tmp /usr/tmp /var/tmp /afs /amd /alex /var/spool /sfs /media"

Are shell wild cards allowed? Does this match directory name only or whole
path name (dir + filename)? 

    # netpaths which are added
    NETPATHS=""

What are these and how they are specified?
