Package: slocate
Version: 3.1-1
Severity: normal

The slocate(1) man page says:

   -c   Parse  '/etc/updatedb.conf'  when updating the slocate database.
        (see CONFIGURATION FILE below).

but:

$ slocate -c
slocate: option requires an argument -- c
$ slocate -c -u
$ slocate -u
slocate: fatal error: You are not authorized to create a default slocate 
database!

"slocate -c -u" should also have returned an error, but it seems that
the option -c has taken the -u as an argument. This can also be seen
with

  slocate libc.so libm.so
  slocate -c libc.so libm.so

for instance (the option -c should have been ignored).
