Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: slocate

$ ls -1 /etc/cron.daily/*locate*
/etc/cron.daily/find.notslocate
/etc/cron.daily/find.notslocate.dpkg-new
/etc/cron.daily/slocate

It improperly diverts findutil's cronjob, which causes updatedb to run
three times in succession. Nowadays findutils uses ionice on its own, so
there is no reason to even divert it any more.

We need to fix this on upgrades as well.
