Unfortunately I can't share my emails without the approval of other parties. The minimum subsets that trigger the error are in the range of 1000-5000 mails, so asking each and everyone of them is out of my reach. I tried to replicate the problem using just spam folders without success. The following is a solid workaround I've stumbled upon. Afew no longer complains and database corruption is gone. $ notmuch compact $ xapian-check ~/.mail/.notmuch/xapian <check messages> No errors found I built xapian-core 1.50 but I can't compile notmuch 0.26.1 against it. I will wait and test again in a few weeks. If you are interested in my setup, the error happens with this minimal configuration. #~/.config/afew/config [Filter.1] query = 'folder:"//(INBOX|Inbox|inbox)$/" AND (NOT tag:inbox)' tags = +inbox;-new message = Messages in INBOX folder are tagged as inbox [Filter.2] query = '(NOT folder:"//(INBOX|Inbox|inbox)$/") AND (tag:inbox)' tags = -inbox message = Messages not in INBOX folder cannot be inbox #~/.notmuch-config [database] path=/home-path/.mail [new] tags=new On 07/04/18 12:51, David Bremner wrote: > Javier Garcia <javiertury@gmail.com> writes: > >> I've applied the path to notmuch 0.26.1 without success. >> >> $ rm -rf ~/.mail/.notmuch >> $ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/hidden-path/notmuch-0.26.1/lib/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH >> ./notmuch new >> Found 20065 total files (that's not much mail). >> Processed 20065 total files in 58s (341 files/sec.). >> Added 19605 new messages to the database. >> >> $ xapian-check .mail/.notmuch/xapian/ >> docdata: >> blocksize=8K items=63 firstunused=1 revision=2 levels=0 root=0 >> B-tree checked okay >> docdata table structure checked OK >> termlist: >> blocksize=8K items=43520 firstunused=8293 revision=2 levels=2 root=748 >> xapian-check: DatabaseError: 1 unused block(s) missing from the free >> list, first is 0 > OK, so probably not related to reference loops (although that patch is > not very well tested).
