Hey Tshepang, Thanks for mentioning this again. I don't think it is a good idea to append to a log when the indexer or daemon is started. I think it is better to start from scratch. If not, people will assume the top of the file is the start of the log when it may not be. -- Regards, Martyn _______________________________________________ tracker-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/tracker-list
