Summary0000838: Failure to find some realaudio files based on filename.
DescriptionI have a few RealAudio-files that doodle seems to be unable to find, even though it looks like they're in the database (had a look at it with less), which was created with the -f-option to doodle.

I've attached one of them here. I don't have any files which doodle is able to find when indexed.

The doodle-version is 0.6.2-1, using libextractor 0.4.1-1 as found in Debian-unstable.
TagsNo tags attached.

I'm not sure I understand. You're saying doodle cannot find _anything_? ("I don't have any files which doodle is able to find when indexed.")

Can you give me some ideas of what concrete commands you have entered?
To give you an idea, here is how I build a doodle database named "x" which just indexes one file (has0543.ra), and then search it:

$ doodle -b -d x -f has0543.ra
$ doodle -d x has
Searching for 'has':
/home/grothoff/has0543.ra
$ ls -l x

Could you do the same and see what happens? Also, it would be useful for me to know what you did that caused you to report this bug in the first place.

Your sample works, and I thought this was what I did, but it appears that I have first built a database without -f, and then attempted to add files (that were already in it) to it with the -f-option. In this case, it doesn't work. Sorry for the less than perfect bugreport.

Right, changing options without making a new database does not work (and was never supposed to). I can see that that can be confusing. However, the reason was to enable you to build parts of the same database with different options. So I don't see this as a bug per-se.

Btw, I've used your RA file to improve the Real-support of libextractor (it did not support Helix previously). The next release of LE (0.4.2) should give some better keywords for those kinds of files.
