Hi,

When running `notmuch compact` today, it stopped with the following
output:

Compacting database...
compacting table postlist
     Reduced by 25% 648656K (2498904K -> 1850248K)

Running xapian-check says:

xapian-check: DatabaseError: Block 459158 item 179: not in sorted order


Is there something I can do, or do I essentially need to completely
rebuild the database (and if so, what's the best way to do it?)

Cheers,

Mike
