rlocate, updatedb & cron

I installed rlocate from the AUR, and it seems to be working fine, EXCEPT that my cron.daily mails me every night with:

updatedb: fatal error: The temp file '/var/lib/rlocate/rlocate.db.stf' already exists and does not appear to be a valid slocate database. Please remove before creating the database.

I checked, and as the rlocate page indicated, my updatedb is symlinked to rlocate, so I'm not sure what's going wrong here. As suggested, I tried removing the offending file, but two nights later, same problem. Is there a step I missed after I installed?
