findutils: gupdatedb fails

Description (last modified by neverpanic (Clemens Lang))

Following successful installation of the findutils package, I attempted to use glocate - which requires that gupdatedb be run to build the database. gupdatedb fails with the following message:

% sudo /opt/local/bin/gupdatedb
gfind: failed to read file names from file system at or below '/': No such file or directory

Per suggestion of "@neverpanic" on IRC, I tried adding gupdatedb to "Full Disk Access" in System Preferences, but no relief.
