we are not deleting from qdbm! If you have changed stuff to do this then please revert. O.6.6 never deleted from qdbm and indeed never should as its prohibitively expensive we are only deleting from sqlite. Phantom hits are weeded out by checking if service ID exists in sqlite. Hit counts for searches are estimates only (same as they are for google) jamie _______________________________________________ tracker-list mailing list tracker-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/tracker-list
