Well, updatedb updates mlocate's database. I researched a little
(Yelp->Help->Contents) and discovered that Yelp uses scrollkeeper. I
only had to type scroll<tab><tab> and I found these functions:

scrollkeeper-rebuilddb
scrollkeeper-update

I used the second and got a ton of new docs in Yelp! Still don't get any
results on rsync:

Search results for "rsync" ;=s
