I just discovered that the index command uses incremental indexing:
my $gCommand = "/usr/bin/glimpseindex -f -H $gGlimpseIndexPath -X
$gIndexDirs";
That means that deleted files are ignored, i.e.,
-f incremental indexing. glimpseindex scans all files and adds to
the index only those files that were created or modified after
the current index was built. If there is no current index or if this
procedure fails, glimpseindex automatically reverts to the default mode
(which is to index everything from scratch). This option may create
an inefficient index for several reasons, one of which is that deleted
files are not really deleted from the index. Unless changes are
small, mostly additions, and -o is used, we suggest to use the default
mode as much as possible.
Seems that could eventually cause problems also??
