--- Comment #11 from Massimiliano L <m.lincetto at gmail.com> ---
It could be nice to have confirmation by the OP that this problem occurs with
btrfs, but it seems highly likely that this is a duplicate of bug 402154. Since
the latter is not very findable (misleading title, long discussion), I guess
this could stay open.

A few comments / considerations:

- I can confirm the file search in the menu is not affected by duplicated
results, so at least there should be a way to fix the appearance in Dolphin
even if duplicates are present in the index;

- I am not up to date w.r.t. about how btrfs adoption is evolving in the wild,
but with major distros such as OpenSUSE and Fedora on board the userbase is
becoming pretty large. A warning message in the File Search config module about
support for btrfs being "experimental" could be welcome, but I am not sure what
is the KDE policy about this kind of thing;

- is it possible to think of a "sanification" routine for the file index,
dedicated to the detection / elimination of duplicate file entries?
