Package: slocate
Version: 3.1-1.1
Severity: minor
The manpage of updatedb (which came with slocate) mentions /etc/updatedb.conf:
CONFIGURATION FILE
Secure Locate's updatedb will automatically parse GNU Locate's
/etc/updatedb.conf. But please be aware that Secure Locate currently
does NOT support all options provided by GNU Locate's configuration
file.
Options currently supported by Secure Locate are PRUNEFS and PRUNEPATHS
This is not sufficient to actually write an updatedb.conf file. So I
discovered that this box had no updatedb.conf manpage. With the help
of apt-file I could locate (sic!) such a manpage in the mlocate package.
Maybe this could be reflected in the dependencies?
Thanks,
