Hi,
it would be nice if the error message notmuch shows when an uncaught
exception occurs was more helpful to the user. It could at least show
the exception message (`e->what()` iirc), which would have helped in
this case.
From IRC:
<qsx> % notmuch new
<qsx> libc++abi: terminating due to uncaught exception of type
Xapian::DatabaseError
<qsx> fun
<qsx> does this sound interesting enough to build notmuch and xapian with debug
symbols?
[…]
<qsx> but i think the issue is that there’s no space left on the filesystem
where the xapian db lives
[…]
<qsx> sounds reasonable
<qsx> but i think it would be nicer for the user if notmuch at least showed the
message of the exception, because that was some work to get to this point
