I upgraded from b118 to b122. After rebooting , the following error was displayed on the desktop:

"There was an error while performing indexing: Index corrupted

Reindex all contents? Yes/No"

I clicked Yes, and the  following was displayed;

"Reindexing may take a long time. Are you sure you want to continue?"

I clicked No, and haven't seen any other error messages related to indexing.

Is this a known issue? Does any action need to be taken?

Thanks,
Jyothi

What happens when you run pkg search -l 'pkg' from the command line?

I get the following results :

Huh, that suggests that the index is now fine. I'm not sure how that could happen though, so I'm cc'ing pkg-discuss to draw the GUI team's attention. One thing you might try is 'pfexec cp -r /var/pkg/index /var/pkg/index-bak', then run 'pfexec pkg rebuild-index' and then diff the two directories to see what's different.
