That's too late, as I said, since they are already "attached" to
src:plocate.

The official "mlocate is gone" message is definitely your job to write
as the new bin:mlocate maintainer ;)
That said, please do not mass-close those bugs.  They are only a dozen,
I'm sure you can at least read the first message and confirm they indeed
do not apply anymore.  But it's your call on how you want to handle the
bugs, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
