Bug ID: 417762
Summary: Setting exclude folders under HOME do not work
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.18.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_baloo
Assignee: baloo-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: k...@mockies.de
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Setting exclude folders does not work because "$HOME" already contains a
trailing slash, resulting in double slashes. Files in excluded folders will be
indexed.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. add a folder to exclude list via systemsettings, e.g. "tmp"
OBSERVED RESULT
Entry in baloofilerc "exclude folders[$e]=$HOME/tmp/" is created. "balooctl
config show excludeFolders" will show that this is evaluated to
/home/user//tmp/
(note the double "/" after HOME)
This is because "$HOME" already contains a trailing slash
Baloo will index files in ~/tmp
Manually changing the option in baloofilerc to "exclude
folders[$e]=${HOME}tmp/" works as expected.
EXPECTED RESULT
Baloo should not index files in ~/tmp, the entry should be
