Name        : mlocate
Product     : Fedora 9
Version     : 0.21
Release     : 1.fc9
URL         : https://fedorahosted.org/mlocate/
Summary     : An utility for finding files by name
Description :
mlocate is a locate/updatedb implementation.  It keeps a database of
all existing files and allows you to lookup files by name.

The 'm' stands for "merging": updatedb reuses the existing database to avoid
rereading most of the file system, which makes updatedb faster and does not
trash the system caches as much as traditional locate implementations.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Fixes prunepaths and bind mount pruning in certain cases.    New variable
prunenames, excludes internal data of Subversion and Mercurial repositories by
default to make the results of searches for source code files more useful.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.  Use 
su -c 'yum update mlocate' at the command line.
For more information, refer to "Managing Software with yum",
available at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/yum/.
