The bits of the jigsaw really do not fit together here :-/

Maybe check and see if Baloo has multiple records for the file, 12 to 13
identical results is *a* *lot*. Try:

    $ baloosearch -i one-of-your-files.txt

and see if it gives you multiple results (the "-i" asks for Baloo's internal
DocID).

A different possibility is that you have symlinks from folder to folder, I know
I had doubled up results when I has a symlink from my Desktop to my Documents
(so in effect I had a ~/Documents and a ~/Desktop/Documents folder). This
wouldn't affect Baloo though, Baloo deliberately avoids symlinks.
