locate and mlocate missing

I'm using trac-11.0-lucid-x86 as an Amazon EC2 AMI.

I noticed that I could not use "locate" or "mlocate" commands.

$ locate test
-bash: locate: command not found

I looked and could not find the files in /usr/bin/ nor updatedb.sh

I tried installing findutils and it says that it is already installed.

root@servername /# apt-get install findutils

findutils is already the newest version.

 

I was under the impression that these were part of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS core.
