Public bug reported: Steps to reproduce: 1. Install Muon on 16.04 LTS and launch it 2. Click "Check for updates" 3. Wait for "Rebuilding Search Index" to finish 4. After some time open Muon again (without 'apt-get update', 'aptitude update'). 5. Get 'Rebuilding search index' message with background process /usr/sbin/update-apt-xapian-index and high CPU load and high temperature as the result.
Expected results: Muon runs update-apt-xapian-index only when it's really needed. Muon allows user to search packages instantly after launch. Actual results: Muon rebuilds search index very often and inefficient. Muon does not allow user to search packages instantly after launch. Note: This bug is very similar to the Synaptic one (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1685376). It is caused by problems in apt-xapian-index (mainly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1612948).
