    Package: findutils
    Version: 4.1.20-4
    Severity: important
    File: /usr/bin/updatedb
    Tags: patch

    The filesystem 'shfs' is a SSH filesystem provided by the packages
    shfs-source and shfs-utils. It mounts a remote filesystem using SSH and
    is potentionally very slow.

    Please add shfs to the PRUNEFS list in /etc/updatedb.conf:

    --- updatedb.conf.old 2004-08-20 14:47:21.000000000 -0500
    +++ updatedb.conf 2004-08-20 14:42:07.000000000 -0500

    # This file sets environment variables which are used by updatedb

    # filesystems which are pruned from updatedb database

    Thanks!
