Ding-ding, that's it. `baloosearch --id term` shows different IDs for the same path, e.g. % baloosearch --id FuelCellWorks 500d900000803 /media/Windows/Users/spage/Documents/ECO.txt 5be2000000803 /media/Windows/Users/spage/Documents/ECO.txt 8546e00000803 /media/Windows/Users/spage/Documents/ECO.txt ... > > Once this happens it seems impossible to clean up. > Yes, I have also noticed this.

I filed bug 438527 , and may have spotted a logic error in `balooctl clear` 😻. I filed enhancement bug 438528 to add a `balooctl remove [ID...]` subcommand. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
