[Bug 961974] Re: Recover from Zeitgeist database corruption (detected at query time)

 

Basically yea, it's a question of way the DB is corrupted, if there's
some misbehaving dataprovider that corrupts it (yes there'd had to be
some vulnerability in our code and sqlite) we could end up just retiring
the DB all the time.

That said my concern was more because some requests might be queued up
which might not fail, but that could be solved by firing a low prio
timer to retire the DB and quit.

Title:
  Recover from Zeitgeist database corruption (detected at query time)

Status in Unity:
  Incomplete
Status in Unity Files Lens:
  Incomplete
Status in Zeitgeist Framework:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  This is based on the checkbox test:
  1. Start gedit.
  2. Save a file named "foo" in your home folder.
  1. Tap super to open the dash
  2. Enter "f"
     -> The results should contain at least the "foo" file and "Firefox"
  3. Click on the cross next to "f", in the textentry
     -> The "f" search should be canceled, bringing you back to the generic "Search" entry with the default elements

  
  I slightly modified it and instead of file called foo I have a "hello_world_file" (as foo returned far too many other results).

  Actual result:
  The file can not be found via dash (or file lens).
