Backslash doesn't seem to work correctly when quoting a space in the
--prunepaths option.
Backslash does properly quote a dollar sign, but if you enable the
trace in updatedb, you'll see that it does something weird w/space, and
instead adds a backslash before a quote, and still splits the filename.
An awkward workaround is to use [[:space:]], so it's not a show-stopper,
but it's certainly not intuitive to people use to using backslash
to quote characters in filenames and regex's...
Should I just file a bug on it?
Thanks!
