I'm somewhat surprised that you scan /var and /tmp.  Or, in fact,
anything outside /home and /media.

While canola runs on maemo, it also runs on my desktop, so it's useful
to have /tmp

Since some people run maemo on their SD instead of flash, they may
have data in /var/lib/media or something like that... this isn't
really useful IMHO, but...

Maybe I'll make this a  GConf list and thus configurable.


We're talking about Canola scanning for media files, right?

Yes.
