No. I added "/root/btr02/root /root/btr02/usr /root/btr02/backup2 " to PRUNEPATHS, but it still ends with Skipping `/': bind mount root@barley:/etc# ls -l /var/lib/plocate/ total 8 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 183 Nov 17 2021 CACHEDIR.TAG -rw-r----- 1 root plocate 952 Jul 19 17:57 plocate.db plocate.db is a little longer, perhaps to hold the additional PRUNEPATHS, but still basically empty. P.S. I also rm -rf /var/lib/mlocate earlier.
