Hi Brandon, The whereis(1) default paths are indeed hard coded. https://github.com/karelzak/util-linux/blob/master/misc-utils/whereis.c#L96 With -B, -M, and -S option arguments additional paths can be specified, but that is not what you are asking. > Was the inclusion of /usr/share/info ever considered? As far I can tell inclusion of the info directory has not been considered. I recon the /usr/share/info is closest to manuals category from the three options, and it feels like reasonable addition. Any other opinions?
