Bug ID: 370456
Summary: Balooctl shows 0 indexed files, large index size, and
no longer works
Product: frameworks-baloo
Version: unspecified
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Baloo File Daemon
Assignee: ***@gmail.com
Reporter: ***@gmail.com

Baloo worked. One day it stopped. I checked "balooctl status" and it shows a
900MB index size with 0 files indexed. I issued a "balooctl check" and it
reindexed everything, causing the index size to jump to around double, at 1.8
GiB. This happened roughly around the time I updated to Frameworks 5.28 (KDE
Neon Dev Edition, stable).

Reproducible: Always

I wiped the index and reindexed everything by running "balooctl disable" and
then "balooctl enable" and the index size is back to 900MB with the same number
of files indexed. So something clearly goes wrong when it reindexes and doubles
the index size.

Not really enough information to go on here. :(

Is this reproducible? Does it shill happen with KDE Frameworks 5.52?
