Description Stefan Brüns 2016-06-21 02:47:17 UTC 
Somehow a bad entry ended up in the idfilename database, with key == parentId, name = "". Thus the while(id) loop never terminates.

The key is valid (e.g. points to the device/inode of ~/Pictures), and was referenced by several children, i.e. the ~/Pictures/ contents.

mdb_dump -n -p -s idfilename  /home/stefan/.local/share/baloo/index_bak  shows:
 /\00\00\00\1d\01\00\00
 /\00\00\00\02\01\00\00Music
 /\00\00\00\1e\01\00\00
 /\00\00\00\1e\01\00\00

Same for a non-corrupt database:
 /\00\00\00\1d\01\00\00
 /\00\00\00\02\01\00\00Music
 /\00\00\00\1e\01\00\00
 /\00\00\00\02\01\00\00Pictures

The error is also visible it the idtree database, it lists itself as a subdoc:
 /\00\00\00\1e\01\00\00
 /\00\00\00\1e\01\00\00/\00\00\00Q\0a\0c\00/\00\00\00i\0a\0c\00/\00\00\00\c9\0a\0c\00/\00\00\00\05?\10\00/\00\00\00YK\10\00/\00\00\00\faL\10\00/\00\00\00\c9M\10\00/\00\00\00YN\10\00/\00\00\00\d1T\10\00/\00\00\00\99\a2\18\00/\00\00\00\f2\c2o\00




Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Steps which lead to the corrupt database are unknown.


Expected Results:  
The DocumentUrlDb::get() should ignore such a bad entry, best remove it.
