Hey everyone
For 4.10, Nepomuk will no longer depend on Strigi for file indexing. We have
written our own file indexer which are based on popular libraries such as
taglib, exiv, ffmpeg, etc. This allows us to better control the indexing
process. If you would like to know more reasons as to why the change was
done, please read [1].
I will be merging this new file indexing code into master by the end of the
week.
@ Packagers:
I talked with Will Stephenson (OpenSuse) a couple of weeks back, and he
informed me that it might be problematic for distributions to ship
nepomuk-core if it depends on ffmpeg, taglib, and other packages which are
ffmpeg in particular is a patent mine-field indeed. echoing others...
if these can be deployed in some form of separately built/deployed
plugins, that would be ideal.
