slocate

Redhat系で使い慣れている「locate」をOS Xに入れてみる。
portで探してみたら、なんか「locate」の代わりに「slocate」というのが引っかかる。

$ port search locate

slocate sysutils/slocate 3.1 Secure Locate is a replacement for locate.

$ sudo port install slocate

slocate's database should be updated on a regular basis. In
/opt/local/etc/daily.slocate, you'll find some lines to put in
/etc/daily.local to update the database on a daily basis (for example).
If you want to disable the weekly update of the system's built-in locate,
edit the file /etc/weekly.

dbのupdateがupdatedbではなく、slocate -uになるみたい。
