-.SH NAME
-update_state \- update system state
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.BR update_state
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.B update_state
-updates a bunch of system state. It takes a long time to execute, and
-would be suitable for execution in a cron job.
-
-Currently,
-.B update_state
-performs the following functions: updates the locate database (in
-.IR /usr/lib/locate ), updates the whatis database (in
-.IR /usr/man ", " /usr/local/man ", " /usr/X386/man ", and "
-.IR /usr/interviews/man ),
-and updates the TeX ls-R cache file (in
-.IR /usr/lib/texmf ).
-.SH BUGS
-The script expects things to be where the FSSTND says they are.
-example, if you have
-.BR makewhatis (8)
-in
-.IR /usr/lib ,
-where it would be traditionally, then you lose, because it should be in
-.IR /usr/bin .
-.SH "SEE ALSO"
-.BR cron(8),
-.BR find(1),
