Package: dlocate Version: 0.5-0.3 Severity: important Tags: patch following a brief discussion o debian-devel locate is going to be split off from the findutils package. <http://news.gmane.org/find-root.php?message_id=%3c20071110110222.GA14136%40chistera.yi.org%3e> This has already happened in experimental and will soon be done in sid, too. A fix to make dlocate work both with the curent setup and a separate locate package is attached.
It would be nice if this fix should be uploaded *before* locate is going to sid. cu andreas -- `What a good friend you are to him, Dr. Maturin. His other friends are so grateful to you.' `I sew his ears on from time to time, sure'
