Yes, it was even documented in the FC4t2 release notes.

I think we should have something like an extended anacron that would
run maintentance tasks (makewhatis, prelink, updatedb) if the computer
is not running on battery, in addition to "always run updatedb" and
"never run updatedb".  But I'm not sure I'll be able to work on this
in time for FC4.
