Bug ID: 410670
Summary: Baloo indexer doesn't follow symlinks
Product: elisa
Version: 0.4.2
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: baloo
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
Originally raised by me in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=407918#c12 but
that was a different issue.
SUMMARY
When ~/Music is a symlink to somewhere else, no music is found by elisa because
of that:
org.kde.elisa.baloo: rootPaths: ("/home/luca/Music")
org.kde.elisa.baloo: LocalBalooFileListing::triggerRefreshOfContent
"/mnt/hdd/Music/Monstercat/Monstercat 020 - Altitude/16. Muzzy - Lost
Metropolis.mp3" does not match root paths
So basically the symlink has to be resolved. After changing the Elisa config to
not point to /home/luca/Music but to /mnt/hdd/Music, my music finally appeared.
(for debugging baloo stuff in elisa, the command 'env
QT_LOGGING_RULES="org.kde.elisa.baloo.debug=true" elisa' is quite useful.
keeping this here for easy finding by me)
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Point Elisa to a folder which is a symlink
2. Observe that no music is being found by elisa
