Yep, I was wondering if that was a conscious design choice or just accidental behavior. > What do folks think about this? Should missing records be ignored? Or > should the missing record cause the pack (or maybe just GC) to fail? Mmh, I think having the pack succeed would be nice. It can sometimes take a while until you can fix those PosKeyErrors. Not everyone has the skill to do that. Preventing the ZODB from growing indefinitely during that time would be nice. But doing GC on an inconsistent state is probably a bad idea.
