--- Begin Message ---Package: apt-xapian-index Version: 0.47 Severity: wishlist I installed apt-xapian-index and it did tell me that it is updating its database in the backgroud. This is the error I got when running axi-cache 18:35:59 rrs@learner:/proc/28571$ axi-cache search jabber Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/axi-cache", line 846, in <module> sys.exit(ui.perform()) File "/usr/bin/axi-cache", line 841, in perform return f(self.args) File "/usr/bin/axi-cache", line 530, in do_search self.db = DB() File "/usr/bin/axi-cache", line 120, in __init__ self.db = xapian.Database(axi.XAPIANINDEX) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/xapian/__init__.py", line 3667, in __init__ _xapian.Database_swiginit(self,_xapian.new_Database(*args)) xapian.DatabaseOpeningError: Couldn't stat '/var/lib/apt-xapian-index/index' (No such file or directory) Perhaps you should handle this exception. Otherwise there is no way for the user of knowing that there's an update process in the background. You may trap this exception, and then go check if there is really an update process, and display a message accordingly ??? On my box, a minute later, it did give me a proper result. But on low power boxes, say RPi, the actual time consumption will be a lot higher. 18:37:06 rrs@learner:/proc/28571$ axi-cache search bash 108 results found.
