Please find attached a patch which attempts to fix the errors and
warnings generated by lintian, as available e.g. here:
http://lintian.debian.org/maintainer/c...@taz.net.au.html#dlocate
I have not tried to fix the Debian-Policy version warning, although that
too should hopefully be trivial.
There is one actual lintian error (should not declare a dependency on
awk after all) and about half a dozen warnings.

dlocate (0.96.1) unstable; urgency=low
- * version 0.95 introduced a dependancy on awk, which is an optional
+ * version 0.95 introduced a dependency on awk, which is an optional
package. the simple awk script has only been tested on my system
with gawk, but it doesn't do anything gawkish so should work with
mawk or original-awk. fixed Depends line.
