| 2 | # The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line |

| 3 | # up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|' on |
|---|
| 4 | # the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must make |
|---|
| 5 | # exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also customary to |

| 11 | mlocate: mlocate is a locate/updatedb implementation. It keeps a database of |
|---|
| 12 | mlocate: all existing files and allows you to lookup files by name. The 'm' |
|---|
| 13 | mlocate: stands for "merging": updatedb reuses the existing database to avoid |
|---|
| 14 | mlocate: rereading most of the file system, which makes updatedb faster and |
|---|
| 15 | mlocate: does not trash the system caches as much as traditional locate |
|---|
| 16 | mlocate: implementations. The locate(1) utility is intended to be completely |
|---|
| 17 | mlocate: compatible to slocate. It also attempts to be compatible to GNU |
|---|
| 18 | mlocate: locate, when it does not conflict with slocate compatibility. |
