For a quick fix: you could set the permissions of the file
in question to "read only". Scid works very well with read
only db's.

Also to Pascal in a similar problem.  If there is a bug in
cache handling and it has to be
touched one might consierer ... ;)

It would be nice to have a way to get more than the current
variations indexed to the cache file automagically.
Currently I do the following "once a year" when I update my
"really large DB"(tm). First I fill the cache via
maintanance. Then I open a repertoir file that knows most of
the lines I'm interested in, I jump to each one by hand and
add it to the cache. Some "Index all" woul be nice, the
repertoir files IMHO a good place to store the lines.
(Admitting that I always create repertoir files with vi
instead of scid's GUI dialog, as they're a lot easier and
faster to handle in vi.)
