This is fixed in upstream version 1.0.5, with this commit: https://git.sesse.net/?p=plocate;a=commitdiff;h=f7dddf5cd31d26be12c4c4d718d257fe012fe368
Looking at https://sources.debian.org/src/plocate/1.0.7-1/debian/changelog/ I think there may be some other changes worth SRUing: - make /etc/cron.daily/plocate cleanly if the package has been removed (in 1.0.5-3) - Remove locate alternative when package is removed (in prerm) (in 1.0.6-1). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1903336 Title: plocate -r says invalid option -- 'r' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plocate/+bug/1903336/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
