<div style="margin: 8px 0; padding: 0 12px; color: #74777D;"><p style="padding: 0; margin: 8px;">What do you consider a "truly dead" symlink?</p>
<p style="padding: 0; margin: 8px;">If you really want to do it correctly, you have to walk the file system yourself, one symlink target path component at a time - each path component can be a symlink itself, or a mount point. You should check the device id for *every* path component.</p></div></div>
<div style="margin: 8px 0; padding: 0 12px;"><p style="padding: 0; margin: 8px;">Damn, you're right! I was fooled by this:</p>
<div class="remarkup-code-block" style="margin: 12px 0;" data-code-lang="console" data-sigil="remarkup-code-block"><pre class="remarkup-code" style="font: 11px/15px "Menlo", "Consolas", "Monaco", monospace; padding: 12px; margin: 0; background: rgba(71, 87, 120, 0.08);"><span style="color: #000080">$ balooctl index /mnt/otto/test.mp4</span>
<span style="color: #000080">$ ln -s /mnt/otto/test.mp4 ~/Videos/</span></pre></div>
<p style="padding: 0; margin: 8px;">baloo now also indexes <tt style="background: #ebebeb; font-size: 13px;">~/Videos/test.mp4</tt><br />
Only in this case <tt style="background: #ebebeb; font-size: 13px;">m_pimpl->m_transaction->documentId(info.symlink.toLocal8Bit());</tt> will return an <tt style="background: #ebebeb; font-size: 13px;">id != 0</tt></p>
<p style="padding: 0; margin: 8px;">I did not notice because every indexed symbolic link on my system also has its target indexed. I never saw <tt style="background: #ebebeb; font-size: 13px;">id == 0</tt></p></div></div></div></div></div><br /><div><strong>REPOSITORY</strong><div><div>R293 Baloo</div></div></div><br /><div><strong>REVISION DETAIL</strong><div><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/D11753">https://phabricator.kde.org/D11753</a></div></div><br /><div><strong>To: </strong>michaelh, Baloo, Frameworks<br /><strong>Cc: </strong>bruns, cfeck, smithjd, ashaposhnikov, michaelh, astippich, spoorun, ngraham, alexeymin<br /></div>
