problem with slocate package



After an upgrade (potato) I saw the following error:

Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/slocate_2.1-2_i386.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I then checked to see if this version of slocate was installed:
lilypad:/var/cache/apt/archives#dpkg -l slocate
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge
| Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed
|/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)
||/ Name           Version        Description
+++-==============-==============-============================================
iU  slocate        2.0-1          a secure locate replacement

Just to see if slocate still works:
lilypad:/var/cache/apt/archives#slocate dd
slocate: error accessing DB Directory: /var/lib/slocate/ : No such file or
directory

Is it broken for anyone else?
