This fixes the `update-locatedb` service when using the `mlocate` package. The service as-is does not properly handle flags during update of the relevant database when configured to use the `mlocate` package. The man entry for `updatedb` associated with `mlocate` does not say that it supports environment variables in place of command line flags, whereas the `findutils` package's updatedb does so. To support this distinction, we pass the relevant settings as flags to the `updatedb` program when using the `mlocate` package. Fixes #29279
Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the Hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-17.09 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.09
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
