To get back to basics: I do not believe I have either baloo or nepomuk, 
and I'm not sure
what they actually do. I have Recoll installed, and I use it very 
little, but I do occasionally
have reason to.  (When I have such reason, I update it, and then walk 
away while it does that.)

Someone please comment.  (Using PCLOS, latest updates, KDE.)
