GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 466278
The mailing list is unsearchable
Last modified: 2007-10-09 10:42:54 UTC
Please describe the problem: When trying to search the rhythmbox-devel mailing list at http://mail.gnome.org/archives/rhythmbox-devel/ says: "NOTICE (2006-07-08): We're re-building the archive search indexes (again). It bombed out silently last time leaving lockfiles in place (and archives unsearchable). Please bear with us while we try to get it sorted out. -- GNOME sysadmin team." I tried to search for the first word in the latest email and it doesn't work. So rebuilding the search index took a year now? Steps to reproduce: 1. Search the mailing list rhythmbox-dev for sth 2. No answer returned Actual results: The above notice is displayed. Expected results: I want search results. Does this happen every time? Yes. Other information:
http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnome.apps.rhythmbox.devel has better archives.
Not specific to rhythmbox, reassigning as a duplicate of a (very old: since 2002!) bug #74288. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 74288 ***
