Bug ID: 399885
Summary: NTFS mount point appears in excludeFolders list and
cannot be removed
Product: frameworks-baloo
Version: 5.51.0
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: balooctl
Assignee: baloo-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: s_chriscoll...@hotmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I have two NTFS partitions mounted in my home folder via the following lines in
/etc/fstab:
UUID=10156E860DB794A2 /home/chris/Personal ntfs-3g
defaults,auto,noatime,big_writes,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=022,windows_names,locale=en_US.utf8
0 0
UUID=0F14CDF22D70C77E /home/chris/Storage ntfs-3g
defaults,auto,noatime,big_writes,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=022,windows_names,locale=en_US.utf8
0 0
Both of these locations appear in "System Settings" -> "Search" -> "File
Search" -> "Do not search in these locations". If I remove the folders from the
list then close and restart System Settings, they are back in the list.
~/.config/baloofilerc contains no reference to either folder (there is no
"exclude folders[$e]=" line) and ~/.config/baloorc doesn't exist.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. I assume that meeting conditions similar to the above description will cause
the issue for others as well, but I don't have a similar setup on any other PC
to test this with.
OBSERVED RESULT
NTFS mount points appear in excludeFolders and can't be removed.
EXPECTED RESULT
NTFS folders are indexed.
SOFTWARE VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.51.0
Qt Version: 5.11.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
If I try to remove one of the folders using "balooctl config remove
excludeFolders '/home/chris/Personal'", two things happen:
1. "baloorc" is created containing "exclude folders[$e]=$HOME/Storage" under
"[General]"
2. "baloofilerc" is updated adding "exclude folders[$e]=$HOME/Storage" under
"[General]"
Running "balooctl config list excludeFolders" now shows:
/home/chris/Personal
/home/chris/Storage
/home/chris/Storage
If I run "balooctl config remove excludeFolders '/home/chris/Personal'" a
second time, both "baloorc" and "baloofilerc" now show "exclude
folders[$e]=$HOME/Storage,$HOME/Storage"
Running "balooctl config list excludeFolders" now shows:
/home/chris/Personal
/home/chris/Storage
/home/chris/Storage
/home/chris/Storage
If I now run "balooctl config remove excludeFolders '/home/chris/Storage'",
both "baloorc" and "baloofilerc" now show "exclude folders[$e]=$HOME/Personal"
