The Findutils package contains programs to find files, either on-the-fly (by doing a live recursive search through directories and only showing files that match the specifications) or by searching through a database.
Installed programs: bigram, code, find, frcode, locate, updatedb and xargs
Findutils depends on: Bash, Binutils, Coreutils, Diffutils, GCC, Gettext, Glibc, Grep, Make, Sed.
Prepare Findutils for compilation:
./configure --prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/bin |
By default, the location of the updatedb database is in /usr/var. To make the location of /var/lib/misc/locatedb file FHS compliant, pass the --localstatedir=/var/lib/misc option to configure.
Compile the package:
make |
This package has a test suite available which can perform a number of checks to ensure it built correctly. Should you choose to run it, the following command will do so:
make check |
And install the package:
make install |
