 Posted: Sat Mar 21, 2009 1:25 pm Post subject: how to erase the beagle index data? |
 |
|
now I have changed my directories structure and changed names to utf8.
but I find that beagle always remember original directories with beagled --fg --debug.
It says : Delaying add of ... until FSQ comes across it .
but that directory doesnot exist.
that original file name uses non-utf8 ,so it always makes beagle halts and exits.
HOW to make beagle working freshly .
I mean to erase all original data that is remembered by beagle.
thanks

| Isn't there a ~/.beagle or ~/.cache/beagle, which can be rm'd? |

yes ,I emerge -C beagle and deleted ~/.beagle and /var/lib/cache/beagle .
and emerge beagle again .
but find beagle always remember original directories that do not exist .
So I think there are other file that note the directory.
Thanks ph030

To remove beagle, use the standard procedure. If you installed from a package then uninstall the package. If you installed from the tarball, then run as root from the tarball directory
# make uninstall
Regarding removing beagle data, start by removing the directory where beagle stores most of its indexes and other data ~/.beagle. Beagle also stores some bookkeeping information in the extended attributes of the files. Though the information in the extended attributes is tiny, still over a large number of files they could total to a significant amount. There is no standard way to remove them, but you can use the following command/script (obtained from a Gentoo forum):
| Code: | $ cat > ~/remove_beagle.sh
/bin/sh
getfattr "$@" | grep -o '.*.Beagle.*' | xargs -i setfattr "$@" -x \{\}
<ctrl-d>
$ chmod +x ~/remove_beagle.sh
$ find ~ -xdev -mindepth 1 -type f -exec ~/remove_beagle.sh \{\} \; |
Lastly, you might want to remove any system wide indexes that you might have. These are usually located in the directory /var/cache/beagle. |

no , I conquer it.
It is for nautilus metadata . I cancelled it in preference of beagle.
