            Bug ID: 377302
           Summary: Baloo keeps some removed files in the index
           Product: frameworks-baloo
           Version: 5.31.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: pinak.ah...@gmail.com
          Reporter: plusf...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

I'm a heavy user of baloo. Settings tags to files, searching via krunner /
dolphin, Using tag-directory widgets on the desktop

Its a great thing to have something like baloo! Thanks for this.

However the index needs a cleanup functionality. Usually I delete my
~/.local/share/baloo/index every 2 month. Because baloo adds stuff to the index
just fine, but don't delets them properly.

I can still find the content of my ~/Downloads/linux4.8 directory that is not
there anymore for.. uhm when was 4.9 released? 

In numbers:

before ~/.local/share/baloo/index deletion

balooctl status
Baloo File Indexer is running
Indexer state: Idle
Indexed 29582 / 29582 files
Current size of index is 176,30 MiB

after:

Baloo File Indexer is running
Indexer state: Idle
Indexed 7535 / 7535 files
Current size of index is 31,14 MiB

wich is near the truth
find ~ /home/share/Musik -type f -not -path "*/.*" -not -path
"*/Projekte/GIT/*" | wc -l 
7046

---

So it would be nice if baloo could run a check if a file still is available and
if not - remove it from the index
