It is indeed the case, with the pointy haired boss being the missus and the box in question a production desktop. :-)) I have to admit that I can't recall messing up with the ppd files, or indeed ever using hpijs on this box. A couple of months ago the akonadi DB went sideways and kmail played up as a result. Again I was suspicious of btrfs, but neither the logs nor fsck showed up anything. The OS is on a single SSD (no RAID), with some caches and busy fs mounted on a spinning disk. I have some backups in case of DR, but after a while a corrupted fs will have migrated to the back ups. -- Regards, Mick
