On the latest version of Risc Ultrix (UWS 2.2), I noticed the existence of
the /usr/lib/find directory with the updatedb script and the other
two binaries needed to implement fast find. In trying to get the thing
going I found out that:
1. The script does not execute properly (It does some work and pipes
it into bigram and into code, which do not like what they are fed).
2. Even if it did execute properly, find does not really care if the
find.codes file exist. In other words it seems that the fast
find option has not been implemented.
Anybody know what the story is? Why was /usr/lib/find created (with
a script that does not work) if find does not use it anyhow?
Or am I missing something? (I could not find any relevant documentation).
Thanks in advance!
