+    Locate one of ``files`` in the list of paths ``path``.
+
+    Arguments:
+
+    -  ``path`` : list of colon-separated paths (like ``$PATH``).
+    -  ``files``: list of file names to search (may be absolute paths).
+    - ``d``     : Bitbake's data store.
+
+    Returns the first file found, otherwise an empty string.
+
+    This function also adds dependencies of the bitbake parse cache on all
+    eligible paths so that the cache becomes invalid when one of these paths
+    gets created (ie: the user adds a new overriding file).
