Some people wish to have updatedb only include mount points which are
|
|
automatically mounted by "mount -a", which mounts devices listed in
|
|
/etc/fstab.
|
|
|
|
The following lines may be added to /etc/updatedb.conf to exclude
|
|
non-automatic mount points from updatedb. Add before the
|
|
"export PRUNEPATHS" line in /etc/updatedb.conf.
|
|
|
|
# mount points not to be scanned (regexp matching lines into /etc/fstab)
|
|
EXCLUDE_MOINT_POINTS=noauto
|
|
EXCLUDE_PATH=`awk "/^#/ {next}; /$EXCLUDE_MOINT_POINTS/ {print \\$2}" < /etc/fstab | tr '\012' ' '`
|
|
PRUNEPATHS="$PRUNEPATHS $EXCLUDE_PATH"
|
|
|
|
