The slocate.1 manpage included in the slocate RPM doesn't document many of slocate's options, especially those for controlling updates of the database. It also refers one to a nonexistent updatedb(1L) manpage for documentation on this. Given that the default slocate install is likely to cause sysadmins at large sites to need to change it rather badly (cf bug 2135) it would be good if the full set of options and behavior was documented somewhere.

a simple updatedb man page is added in slocate-1.4-5.
