Thanks, Jamie. I will check out svn version and re-test with both an encrypted directory and encrypted home folder.

have played around with encfs (with an encrypted directory - not the
pam_encfs home dir stuff)


replicated startup problem when opening the qdbm Files but have now
committed MAP_SHARED -> MAP_PRIVATE in inlined qdbm to svn so that they
now work with fuse out of the box.

1) First test - indexing an encrypted directory. Works as expected -
could not see any faults. Stopped and relaunched, indexed some more and
still no problems - I could search for old and new stuff.

2) symlinked .Tracker -> ~/visible/.Tracker and copied .Tracker to
visible folder (visible part of encrypted folder). Repeated tests as in
(1) and no problems found. No crashes, no hangs and all data indexed (I
only tested a fairly small dir tree) and all old and new data could be
searched fine.

I cant find anything wrong Im afraid - suggest you check out latest svn
and try again (after deleting .Tracker)

If you find problems can you please give me reproducible steps if possible.
