Bug ID: 362622 Summary: baloo ignores "exclude folders[$e]=$HOME/" Product: frameworks-baloo Version: unspecified Platform: Archlinux Packages OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: m...@vhanda.in Reporter: abu...@gmail.com CC: pinak.ah...@gmail.com Since some time baloosearch spits almost only empty strings as results, (I reported it somewhere here, was supposed to be fixed by 5.15, but weren't) I tried adding $HOME to exclude folders but it turns out that this option is ignored. cat ./.config/baloofilerc: [Basic Settings] Indexing-Enabled=true [General] dbVersion=2 exclude filters=*.nvram,CMakeTmp,confstat,CVS,*.loT,*.m4,config.status,.xsession-errors*,*.rcore,*.pc,lzo,litmain.sh,*.pyc,*.la,cmake_install.cmake,*.tmp,ui_*.h,CMakeTmpQmake,.git,*.class,Makefile.am,*.po,*.o,CMakeCache.txt,*.swap,.svn,*~,core-dumps,*.omf,.bzr,.hg,.pch,*.elc,*.lo,CTestTestfile.cmake,po,*.aux,*.moc,*.orig,.obj,_darcs,confdefs.h,__pycache__,*.part,*.rej,*.gmo,libtool,conftest,CMakeFiles,.uic,autom4te,moc_*.cpp,.moc,qrc_*.cpp,.histfile.*,*.vm*,*.csproj,lost+found exclude filters version=2 exclude folders[$e]=$HOME/ first run=false only basic indexing=true Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. balooctl disable 2. edit add home to exclude folders (in UI or directly to baloofilerc) 3. balooctl enable Actual Results: (balooctl status) Baloo File Indexer is running Indexer state: Idle Indexed 70373 / 70373 files Current size of index is 39.93 MiB Expected Results: most files have status: Scheduled; some actually turn in the search results kf-5.21 (the fact that in the bugzilla You can only select 5.20 is strange... does it mean that "kde is dying" ;-)?? this is i686, i.e. 32-bit installation. I have none of these problems on 64-bits installations I own -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
