Oh, I know :-) Yet, locate is all *I* need, that, plus grep. (Not saying that others might need/want 
more than locate).

Yet, I get tracker, where I didn't ask for it. It would have been OK if it was disabled by default 
but not only it wasn't but it created problems for me (not to mention what is the point of scanning 
removable media by default is beyond me). Without any hint of how to disable it. Besides, if I had 
another search engine installed and running why would I want yet another one?

It's a quick and easy way to piss off users :(

Cheers,
Dariusz
