Package: plocate
Version: 1.1.8-2
Severity: minor

I noticed plocate always reports a broken locatedb as "plocate.db", even when 
the filename is something else:

    twb@hera[Desktop]$ LOCATE_PATH=$PWD/test.mlocatedb  locate 'tinyssh*deb'
    plocate.db is corrupt or an old version; please rebuild it.

    twb@hera[Desktop]$ locate 'tinyssh*deb'
    [no output]

Clearly the broken file there is called "test.mlocatedb", not "plocate.db".

plocate should either not mention a filename, or
use the specific filename that had corruption/oldness.


Not really relevant to this bug report, but the context for this is:

  1. To reduce search load,
     I generate per-user locate databases on the NFS server, and
     tell clients to use them:

        server$ sudo -H -u twb LC_MESSAGES=C nocache nice ionice -c3 chrt 
--idle 0 updatedb --require-visibility=no --output /home/twb/.locatedb 
--database-root /home/twb

        client$ export LOCATE_PATH=/home/twb/.locatedb
        client$ catfish   # or something else that calls locate(1).

  2. mlocate is gone in Debian 12, so
     I wanted to test if locate(1plocate) could read a database generated by 
updatedb(8mlocate).
     If it could, I wouldn't have to upgrade all clients and servers at once.
     (It can't, hence the error message about "corrupt or an old version".)
