> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Database Core
> Affects Versions: 1.0.1
> Environment: All platforms
> Reporter: Mike Leddy
> Priority: Minor
>
> On compacting a database the purge_seq becomes zero. As a result subsequently
> accessing any view will cause the view to be rebuilt from scratch. I resolved
> the issue for me by patching start_copy_compact, but this only works if you
> can guarantee there will be no purging done during compaction:
