Findutils-4.4.2
The Findutils package contains programs to find files. These
programs are provided to recursively search through a directory
tree and to create, maintain, and search a database (often faster
than the recursive find, but unreliable if the database has not
been recently updated).
Approximate build time:
0.5 SBU
Required disk space:
22 MB
6.40.1. Installation of Findutils
Prepare Findutils for compilation:
./configure --prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/lib/findutils \
--localstatedir=/var/lib/locate
The meaning of the configure options:
-
--localstatedir
-
This option changes the location of the locate database to be in
/var/lib/locate, which is
FHS-compliant.
Compile the package:
make
To test the results, issue:
make check
Install the package:
make install
Some of the scripts in the LFS-Bootscripts package depend on
find. As /usr may not be available during the early stages
of booting, this program needs to be on the root partition. The
updatedb script also
needs to be modified to correct an explicit path:
mv -v /usr/bin/find /bin
sed -i 's/find:=${BINDIR}/find:=\/bin/' /usr/bin/updatedb

Short Descriptions
|
bigram
|
Was formerly used to produce locate databases
|
|
code
|
Was formerly used to produce locate databases; it is
the ancestor of frcode.
|
|
find
|
Searches given directory trees for files matching the
specified criteria
|
|
frcode
|
Is called by updatedb to compress
the list of file names; it uses front-compression,
reducing the database size by a factor of four to five.
|
|
locate
|
Searches through a database of file names and reports the
names that contain a given string or match a given
pattern
|
|
oldfind
|
Older version of find, using a different algorithm
|
|
updatedb
|
Updates the locate database; it
scans the entire file system (including other file
systems that are currently mounted, unless told not to)
and puts every file name it finds into the database
|
|
xargs
|
Can be used to apply a given command to a list of files
