Details:


The find command for NETPATHS in updatedb is different than the others.
For example (line breaks changed for ease of comparison):

   # : A8
   $find $NETPATHS $FINDOPTIONS
   \( -type d -regex "$PRUNEREGEX" -prune \)
   -o $print_option || ...

The -prune is inside the parentheses.  Compare with, say:

   # : A6
   $find $SEARCHPATHS $FINDOPTIONS
   \( $prunefs_exp -type d -regex "$PRUNEREGEX" \)
   -prune -o $print_option || ...

I don't actually use NETPATHS, so I'm not sure if it actually makes a
difference, I just saw it by inspection ...
