--------------- mediascanner2 (0.110+16.04.20151216-0ubuntu1) xenial; urgency=medium [ James Henstridge ] * Fix up handling of directory renames, so old contents is correctly removed from the index and inotify watches for subdirectories are cleaned up. (LP: #1460411) * If the mediascanner index can not be opened, catch the exception in the QML plugin and act as if the database is empty. A warning is printed via Qt's logging framework. This prevents QML apps using mediascanner from terminating if there is a problem opening the media index.
