     1.4 +The Findutils package contains programs to find files. These programs are
     1.5 +provided to recursively search through a directory tree and to create,
     1.6 +maintain, and search a database (often faster than the recursive find, but
     1.7 +unreliable if the database has not been recently updated).
     1.8 +
     1.9 +The package contains:
    1.10 +
    1.11 +  * `find` - Searches given directory trees for files matching the specified
    1.12 +    criteria
    1.13 +  * `locate` - Searches through a database of file names and reports the names
    1.14 +    that contain a given string or match a given pattern
    1.15 +  * `updatedb` - Updates the locate database; it scans the entire file system
    1.16 +    (including other file systems that are currently mounted, unless told not
    1.17 +    to) and puts every file name it finds into the database
    1.18 +  * `xargs` - Can be used to apply a given command to a list of files
