Is my locate broken?



I did a new installation of Debian and installed the locate pachage. But when I use it, 
nothing is retured:

	$ which tlmgr
	/usr/bin/tlmgr
	
	$ locate tlmgr
	[nothing returnsd]	

	$ locate bin
        [isued to get a lot, nothing on this machine
	
I know locate can be slow, but I waited a sufficient time. I suspect locate has to build 
a database, but my system has been running a week.
