Hi Jon,
I was able to find that the daemon segfaults on kontact.desktop file.
I
discovered which file was causing a segfault by running strigi-daemon under
gdb, then when there was a segfault I checked lsof to find which file
strigi-daemon had opened.
Trying to run strigi-daemon again after moving kontact.desktop out of
the
search path, it again segfaults on another .desktop file.
Adding *.desktop to the exclude filter, strigi-daemon segfaults, this
time
on "Adobe Acrobat 4.0.xpm". (Do you want this file?)
Adding *.xpm to the exclude filter, strigi-daemon segfaults on a .jpg
file.
All of these files I can get the metainfo on (right-click, properties,
meta
info). Is this also a kfile function?
I'm beginning to think strigi simply segfaults on the first file it
encounters, and is probably a Debian specific problem. A bug has been opened
already on the debian bug tracker. If you have any other input let me/us
know:

Thanks,
C.
