Package: dlocate Version: 1.12 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
dlocate cannot find recent files, so it is mostly useless. I suspect that since the upgrade to dlocate 1.12 on 2022-11-25, its database is no longer updated: zira:~> ll /var/lib/dlocate total 109172 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 55750318 2022-11-25 00:27:44 dlocatedb -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 55623054 2022-11-14 09:47:51 dlocatedb.old -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 105318 2022-11-25 00:27:44 dlocatedb.stamps -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 299199 2022-11-25 00:27:44 dpkg-list The changelog doesn't mention any change: dlocate (1.12) unstable; urgency=medium * QA upload. * Convert to 3.0 source format.
