Public bug reported:

$ plocate --help
...
  -r, --regexp           interpret patterns as basic regexps (slow)
...

$ plocate -r xyzzy
plocate: invalid option -- 'r'

Note that `plocate --regexp xyzzy` works fine.

This is fixed in some upstream version (I tested by pulling in a docker
image of debian/sid, which has plocate 1.0.7).
