Yes.
It looks like your updatedb doesn't do what it should do.
You could try and remove the file

Thanks for the replies.
I don't understand Noah's point - as I said, I ran 'updatedb' after
removing qmail and the only files shown by the 'locate qmail'
command were those which were not under /etc/rc*. I have no
program which runs update nightly.
Today, us
And of course updatedb will rebuild the database which depending on your system
may be a short time or a *very* long time.

"locate -e" limits your output to files in the database which still
exist.

I installed qmail and after setup problems, removed it via dselect
in favour of a simpler program more suited to my needs.
The removal left a large number of files which I have since
tried to delete by hand. All went without problem except:-
/etc/rc0.d/K20qmail
/etc/rc1.d/K20qmail
/etc/rc2.d/S20q
