Hello.

Because I've lost some filesystems recently, I'd like to find out,
what I've *exactly* lost. To do that, I'd like to read and *print*
(on screen) the /complete/ slocate/updatedb database from
/var/lib/slocate/slocate.db.

But when I "locate" something, the result is only printed if the
file actually right now exists.

Is there some way to dump the slocate.db? Or to modify the
"locate" binary, so that this check is not done?

[06:55:09 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~] $ locate --version
Secure Locate 2.7 - Released January 24, 2003
[06:56:49 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~] $ epm -qf `which locate`
slocate-2.7-r8
[06:57:04 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~] $ uname -a
Linux server 2.6.12-ck3.009.reiser4_rc5-mm2.no-nfsv4.genkernel #1 Sat Jul 9 
13:01:17 CEST 2005 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2000+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux

Thanks,

Alexander Skwar
