Bug ID: 449724
Summary: Windows: "Fast Native Indexer" breaks when adding new
directories
Product: Elisa
Version: 21.12.0
Platform: Microsoft Windows
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: baloo
Assignee: matthieu_gall...@yahoo.fr
Reporter: thefullstack...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When installing from scratch through the Windows Store, I needed to link my
existing music directory (D:\Music). When selecting the folder through the
application, the app hangs.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Elisa
2. Add new directory, without changing the "Music Indexing" setting from "Use
fast native indexer"
3. The app hangs and needs to be killed.
OBSERVED RESULT
The app hangs only when "Use fast native indexer" is used. When using "Scan the
filesystem directly", the app works as expected.
EXPECTED RESULT
The default Music Indexing setting should work out of the box. If the "Scan the
filesystem directly" setting is the default on Windows, make it default. At the
very least, don't display a Baloo bug report dialog when selecting the setting.
There may also be a related bug with Baloo, but it's implementation in Elisa is
beyond my knowledge.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 20H2 120.2212.3920.0
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Welcome to my first KDE bug report, my daily driver is Arch+Plasma; I just
discovered this on my Windows OS installation.
