Hi all,
I was reviewing GB#511474, to see which would be the proper fix for it.
But first, I would like to clarify the desired behavior of the indexing
of mounted remote filesystems.
The bug report seems quite old, not inline with current master, but it
seems to mean that even if the option to skip checking mounted remote
filesystems is disabled, some of them they get actually indexed.
I am not really sure if automatically indexing every remote filesystem
mounted is a desired feature, even more when Tracker doesn't actually
automatically index recursively the user's home directory. My impression
is that if the indexing of the mounted remote filesystem is ever
required by a user, she can add the corresponding mount point manually
in the list of directories to index. Which approach is the proper one?
And if current master doesn't currently support this, shouldn't the
configuration option be disabled/removed until implemented?
Currently, if a remote filesystem is mounted through Nautilus using
sftp, tracker-miner-fs fully skips it:
09 Apr 2010, 15:26:17: Tracker: Mount:'sftp on 192.168.1.100', now
mounted on:'/home/aleksander/.gvfs/sftp on 192.168.1.100'
09 Apr 2010, 15:26:17: Tracker: Being ignored because we have no
GVolume
Cheers!
