Hi,
the handling of slocate databases in locate.c is (1) unnecessarily
complicated, and (2) assumes that the second path is an extension of the
first one. This may or may not be true.
Attached are two patches:
0002-slocate-*: adds a test case exposing the bug.
0003-slocate-*: simplifies the handling of slocate databases, also fixing
the bug.
