Bug ID: 333020
Summary: No way to index directories off root via UI
Classification: Unclassified
Product: kmail2
Version: 4.12.97
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: search
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Baloo auto indexes the contents of $HOME and sub directories by default. Other
entries in fstab are added to a black list by default, but can be removed (and
hence indexed) via the Systems Settings "Desktop Search" UI.
However any user data directories that are on the root mount are not indexed by
default, and cannot be specified for indexing via the UI.
They can be manually added by editing baloofilerc, and are indexed after that.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a root data directory, e.g /data2
2. Add a document file to this directory, e..g balootest.txt, with some unique
content
3. Search for the file with baloosearch, e.g "baloosearch balootest"
Actual Results:
No results will be returned.
Expected Results:
/data2/balootest.txt
Editing the ~/.kde/share/config/baloofilerc file and adding:
"folders[$e]=/data2/,$HOME/"
will give the desired results. Users shouldn't have to do this though.
