Package: slocate
Version: 3.1-1
Severity: normal
The slocate(1) man page says:
-c Parse '/etc/updatedb.conf' when updating the slocate database.
(see CONFIGURATION FILE below).
but:
$ slocate -c
slocate: option requires an argument -- c
$ slocate -c -u
$ slocate -u
slocate: fatal error: You are not authorized to create a default slocate
database!
"slocate -c -u" should also have returned an error, but it seems that
the option -c has taken the -u as an argument. This can also be seen
with
slocate libc.so libm.so
slocate -c libc.so libm.so
for instance (the option -c should have been ignored).

The slocate package has been removed from Debian testing, unstable and
experimental, so I am now closing the bugs that were still opened
against it.
For more information about this package's removal, read
http://bugs.debian.org/457565 . That bug might give the reasons why
this package was removed, and suggestions of possible replacements.
Don't hesitate to reply to this mail if you have any question.
Thank you for your contribution to Debian.
Kind regards,
