'locate' For Opensuse 10.2?

#1 (**permalink**) 11-Dec-2006, 18:23

I can't believe openSuse 10.2 doesn't have 'locate' installed by default, and I can't find this. Is there a rpm available for this, and where can I find it? I even have packman in my catalog and still can't find it from there.

THANKS

'locate' is part of the 'findutils' package

Well if I open the software installer and type in 'findutils' nothing comes up?

THANKS

Oh my bad I see that 'findutils' is installed then why am I not finding locate in here?

It's not my /path as a user or root as 'su' or su -l

Hmm
