[Bug 2024446] [NEW] updatedb.mlocate hangs when system returns from suspend

[Hungerburg]

Public bug reported:

System here boots/resumes from SSD, but has hard drive with spindle for
user data. When returning from software suspend mlocate starts updating
db before slow drive is ready and hangs then.

System is 20.04. Hang started appearing after upgrade from 18.04. 22.04
still to wait…

Adding sleep 10 into /etc/cron.daily/mlocate fixed that for me.
