I do not observe the OP's effect on my system (Gutsy->Hardy), although my package is also 0.18-2ubuntu1 /var/lib/dpkg/info/mlocate.postinst contains if [ "$1" = "configure" ]; then update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/locate locate /usr/bin/mlocate 80 \ ... And as a result, $ ls -l /usr/bin/*locate* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 2008-04-28 13:41 /usr/bin/locate -> /etc/alternatives/locate -rwxr-sr-x 1 root mlocate 30508 2008-03-08 19:22 /usr/bin/mlocate -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 28120 2008-03-08 19:22 /usr/bin/updatedb.mlocate with /etc/alternatives/locate pointing back to /usr/bin/mlocate
