yes, i can. here's how to reproduce it on master: fire a `notmuch tag +TEST1 '*'`, which should block the db for a while. Then use the attached script to write to the index (this could make a nice second testcase for the bindings in case the test body is large enough).
On master, the script fails like this: A Xapian exception occurred opening database: Unable to get write lock on /home/pazz/mail/.notmuch/xapian: already locked Segmentation fault When you reset using `git reset e92b438f46a3a` (to 4winters first patch), the script fails like this, which is the intended behaviour: A Xapian exception occurred opening database: Unable to get write lock on /home/pazz/mail/.notmuch/xapian: already locked Traceback (most recent call last): File "./p.py", line 3, in <module> db = notmuch.Database(mode=notmuch.Database.MODE.READ_WRITE) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/notmuch/database.py", line 121, in __init__ self.open(path, mode) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/notmuch/database.py", line 173, in open raise NotmuchError(message="Could not open the specified database") notmuch.globals.NotmuchError: Could not open the specified database best, /p Quoting Sebastian Spaeth (2011-12-06 11:12:42) >On Tue, 06 Dec 2011 10:46:31 +0000, Patrick Totzke ><patricktot...@googlemail.com> wrote: >> This commit breaks raising XapianErrors for me. >> >> If I lock the index with some `notmuch tag +test '*'` >> and try to write to it in alot, i get a segfault and >> the following on stderr: >> >> Xapian exception occurred opening database: Unable to get write lock on >> /home/pazz/mail/.notmuch/xapian: already locked > >Can you confirm that this only occurs with this patch and not without? >To be honest, I don't see how the patch would change things in a way >that make it throw XapianErrors that would not also occur before this >patch. > >Sebastian
