Hello, updatedb does not run periodically. Where should I initiate it (cron ?).
I was wondering the same question earlier today when 'locate' failed to show a file I knew exists. I noticed that there is a related service: $ sudo systemctl status mlocate-updatedb [sudo] password for eyal: * mlocate-updatedb.service - Update a database for mlocate Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/mlocate-updatedb.service; static; vendor preset: disabled Active: inactive (dead) I also see once daily ('round midnight) audit messages mentioning this service. Is it related? Should it be enabled? [I run f26]
