Agreed, .. but if locate.update does NOT run as root, that would seem to
indicate some problem other than permissions.
BTW - Looked at a couple of other possiblities, .. mysql had a lot of
space in log files so I freed up most of them, no change; the other
possibility could be that of a memory problem, but I have no knowledge of
'bigmem' and how that works.
