Hi,

when searching for "/usr/bin/[" dpkg -S finds it if I escape the "["
properly. dlocate does not seem to find anything, regardless of how
I escape the bracket:

$ dpkg -S /usr/bin/\\[
coreutils: /usr/bin/[
$ dlocate /usr/bin/[
$ dlocate /usr/bin/\[
$ dlocate /usr/bin/\\[
$

So dlocate does not seem to work with certain characters. Perhaps somewhere
the escape character is stripped?

Regards,
  Bastian
