I think you may have missed at least /etc/updatedb.conf and
/var/lib/slocate/slocate.db.  There may be other interfaces associated
with this package; I'm not positive, as it's been a while since I used
it.

Isn't updatedb normally used only in a cron job entry?  Should it be
on every user's path, especially with that really unfortunate,
much-too-generic name?

... and then there's locate(1) versus slocate(1) versus mlocate(1).
Aren't Linux distributions dropping slocate over time?

That comes from ON and I don't see a contract.  Where's this software
integrating?
