Package: xapian-omega
Version: 1.0.17-1
Severity: wishlist
(I have xapian installed on a different machine, hence the missing
versions below.)
It seems there's no way to skip files that have not been modified
since omindex last indexed them. This looks like a huge missed
opportunity to speed things up. In general, it is disconcerting that
omindex can only be given a whole directory to process, and only one
at a time. The Unix Way (TM), and some existing utilities like cpio
and pax, suggest another interface: accept the list of files to be
added or updated on standard input, either newline or NUL separated.
I understand that this may be a limitation of xapian itself - feel
free to reassign if that's the case.
