[Python-apps-team] Bug#926850: catfish: Default path exclusions fail if they match any fragment of the result path

[Antonio Cebrián]

Package: catfish
Version: 1.4.7-1

Default path exclusions ("~/.cache", "~/.gvfs" and "/dev") fail if they
match any fragment of the result path.

Test case:

mkdir ~/devel
touch ~/devel/123.txt
sudo mkdir /devel
sudo touch /devel/123.txt
sudo updatedb

locate 123.txt
# It founds both files.

catfish --start / 123.txt
# It doesn't found anything because result paths include "/dev" string.

Solution:
- Exclude paths must end with "/".
- Result paths must start with exclude path in order to be excluded.

Fix patch attached.

Best regards.
