Not fixed as far as I know[*].
known-fixed-in-plocate ;)
This was explicitly discussed somewhere: the gist is that plocate has
better handling of duplicates, so it doesn't need to filter out bind mounts.
But I can't find that discussion. If I do, I'll add it to the change page.
I've been patching my
/etc/updatedb.conf ever since I installed with btrfs. (The second
time I installed with btrfs, f33, that is. Not years ago. :-))
This change does render the bug moot, though. Nice.
