Version: (using KDE 4.2.0) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages When you go to system settings --> desktop search --> advance settings you are presented a filesystem tree where you can chose what to index. The problem is that hidden directories are not shown. As I use disconnected IMAP with kdepim I have a local copy of all my mail that I want to index but I can't just do that because in the exclusions I don't want everything hidden to be indexed. It would be good if in the tree also hidden directories could be selected.
SVN commit 928254 by trueg: Allow to enable indexing of specific hidden folders. In contrast to other folders hidden folders are disabled by default. I am not sure if this is a perfect solution but it fits the most common use-case: only enabling the indexing of a single hidden folder. Since this intruduces a new string it sadly cannot be backported to KDE 4.2.
