Rebuilding locate database:
updatedb: locate database /tmp/_updatedb10629 is empty

Rebuilding whatis database:

Cleaning up kernel database files:
----- end -----

I've poked around a little in the man pages, and I can't even find a
reference to the tmp file(s) that are trying to be referenced.....

FWIW: I'm running FreeBSD-STABLE and typically CVSUP it every couple of
days.  This error message has plagued me since the machine was built last
March; now it's starting to irk me!

Thanks!
