System: NetBSD paranoia.rulez.org 1.5.2 NetBSD 1.5.2 (CUSTOM-010911) #0: Tue Sep 11 04:26:23 CEST 2001 root@paranoia.rulez.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/CUSTOM-010911 i386


>Description:
locate.updatedb, specifically the find command therein seems to die on scanning procfs,
this prevents scanning of futher directories, for example /usr. output looks like this:
/proc/self
find: fts_read: Permission denied

	
>How-To-Repeat:
run locate.updatedb as nobody (like /etc/weekly does)

	
>Fix:
maybe the find command in update.locatedb should exclude procfs?
