Cannot update database message
I have noted that there is a previous issue listed with the same issue- title i.e. since upgrading (downgrading) Xubuntu 20.04 LTS to Xubuntu 22.04.1 LTS I am unable to update the catfish database, issue Number 78.
I am having the same problem. I have not received any answers to my request on the main Ubuntu site and I have not see any questions therefore no answers on the Xubuntu site.
I have checked for permission problems mlocate file permissions have changed working version group mlocate R&W version 20.04 non-working version group root RO version 22.04 changed permissions to to the ones associated with previous working version but no obvious change in the end result but I did notice the error message seemed to take longer to appear on one of my upgraded systems. This leads to a question is there another directory that u=is related as temp directory that I need to check the permissions.
Since I have not received any response to questions on the (X)ubuntu sites, has catfish been replaced by another programme. I would hope not!! because catfish seems to be very efficient with low system requirements.
