#
# updatedb has a parameter "--localuser".
# It runs the "find" command as this user. Some people think this is a
# security hole if set to 'root' (because some directory information can
# be read which is normally protected). Others think it is useful to hold
# all files in the database.
# So if you want full information in locate db, set RUN_UPDATEDB_AS=root.
# If you want security use RUN_UPDATEDB_AS=nobody.
#
RUN_UPDATEDB_AS=nobody

## Type:	string
## Default:	""

# scanned.
