Hi

I get this on
# updatedb
fatal error: updatedb: create_db(): chdir: No such file or directory

I have over 1g free on /, and in /var/lib/slocate/
there is
-rw-r-----    1 root     slocate      4.7M Jan 22 10:57 slocate.db
-rw-r-----    1 root     slocate      4.8M Feb 23 23:47 slocate.db.tmp

the .tmp was created now. Google has only 3 reports of this, and problem
seems to be it was run as user, not root.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
