Package: slocate
Version: 3.1-1.1
Severity: important
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
The updatedb program from the slocate package requires /etc/updatedb.conf
to be present, and fails if it isn't, with this error:
updatedb: fatal error: load_file: Could not open file: /etc/updatedb.conf: No
such file or directory
In this situation, it seems enough to 'touch /etc/updatedb.conf', but the
package is essentially unusable as installed.
Please include/create this file or depend on a package that does.

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,
