Title:
  mlocate updatedb not searching home on btrfs

Status in mlocate package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Kubuntu 14.04, new install
  mlocate  Installed: 0.26-1ubuntu1

  Running "updatedb" does not include /home subdirectories in the file
  scan. Editing /etc/updatedb.conf and remarking out
  PRUNE_BIND_MOUNTS="yes"  results in a successful /home file scan. This
  behavior is a change from 13.10, where updatedb and updatedb.conf
  worked as expected.

  I suspect this may be due to /home being a mounted btrfs subvolume.
  However, as I stated, this worked fine using 13.10.
