Description Eugen Konkov 2008-10-08 19:40:02 UTC 
There is no manual entry for 'locate' utility in 7.1-BETA, but 7.0 has it

How-To-Repeat: home# locate
usage: locate [-0Scims] [-l limit] [-d database] pattern ...

default database: `/var/db/locate.database' or $LOCATE_PATH

home# man locate
No manual entry for locate
home#

That's strange:

$ man locate | head -2
LOCATE(1)               FreeBSD General Commands Manual
LOCATE(1)

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=locate

Are you sure you have man pages installed and MANPATH environment
variable is correct?  Also what does ``locate locate'' say?

Close this PR, a locate manual page exists and follow up 
offering to help user has been answered with silence for 
almost three months.
