# Preparing to replace slocate 2.1-3 (using .../slocate_2.1-4_i386.deb)
# ...
# ===============================================
# ===Error. The following diversions still exist:
# diversion of /usr/share/man/man1/locate.1.gz to
# /usr/share/man/man1/locate.1.gz.old by slocate
# diversion of /usr/share/man/man1/updatedb.1.gz to
# /usr/share/man/man1/updatedb.1.gz.old by slocate
# ===============================================

... by any chance? (Otherwise, quote the error messages or no-one can
help you. "messed up" is no good ...)

I posted a patch for this to bug #56981 and debian-devel the night
before last.
