> I thought I handled it in LUCENE-5246, but turns out I didn't handle it
> fully. I'll upload a patch which improves the test to expose the bug. I know
> where it is, but I'm not sure how to fix it without breaking index
> back-compat. Can we do that on experimental features?
> The problem is that if you update different fields in different gens, the
> FieldInfos files of older gens remain referenced (still!!). I open a new
> issue since LUCENE-5246 is already resolved and released, so don't want to
> mess up our JIRA...
> The severity of the bug is that unneeded files are still referenced in the
> index. Everything still works correctly, it's just that .fnm files are still
> there. But as I wrote, I'm still not sure how to solve it without requiring
> apps that use dv updates to reindex.
