yes, i can. here's how to reproduce it on master:
fire a `notmuch tag +TEST1 '*'`, which should block the db for a while.
Then use the attached script to write to the index (this could make a nice
second testcase for the bindings in case the test body is large enough).
On master, the script fails like this:
A Xapian exception occurred opening database: Unable to get write lock on
/home/pazz/mail/.notmuch/xapian: already locked
Segmentation fault
When you reset using `git reset e92b438f46a3a` (to 4winters first patch), the
script
fails like this, which is the intended behaviour:
A Xapian exception occurred opening database: Unable to get write lock on
/home/pazz/mail/.notmuch/xapian: already locked
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./p.py", line 3, in <module>
db = notmuch.Database(mode=notmuch.Database.MODE.READ_WRITE)
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/notmuch/database.py", line 121,
in __init__
self.open(path, mode)
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/notmuch/database.py", line 173,
in open
raise NotmuchError(message="Could not open the specified database")
notmuch.globals.NotmuchError: Could not open the specified database
best,
