SUMMARY removing and entry from the exclude folder using systemsettings, will not just remove the entry from "exclude folders[$e]" but also resets "folders[$e]" to "$HOME". Any custom set folders are removed. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. add a custom entry in baloofilerc "folders[$e]=$HOME,/home/share/ 1. remove an entry from the excluded folder list OBSERVED RESULT folders[$e] will be reset to "$HOME": folders[$e]=$HOME EXPECTED RESULT The entry should be left as is. AFAIK, the GUI does not allow customisation of "folders[$e]" SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.28.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.67.0 Qt Version: 5.14.1

[Baloo KCM] Complete overhaul of the include/exclude folder list Summary: The current "Excluded folders" list in the KCM is quite awkward: 1. It tries to mimic baloos automatic exclusion of external drives, but fails doing so and adds almost any external drive even when not mounted below an indexable path. 2. Deleting an autogenerated entry actually **adds** it to the included folder list, and then hides it. 3. There is no way to show the included folder list, or add any entries to it. Remove the custom "excluded mounts" heuristic from the KCM and retrieve the additional (not explicitly configured) excluded ones from baloo. Replace the "excluded list" with a common list for included and excluded folders, and flag its state. This also makes it easy to add additional properties later. Create a new UI delegate for each config list item, allowing to enable and disable indexing for each entry. Make the "delete" actually always delete a config entry, and make the control inline. Move the "Add" button to the *right* bottom of the list (in accordance with UI guidelines) and add some text to it. Depends on D28024 Solves the following parts of T9879: [x] Allow adding of includeFolders in the KCM [x] Correctly show excludeFolders below explicit (non-$HOME) includeFolders in KCM Related: bug 417762, bug 417170, bug 366521 Reviewers: #baloo, #vdg, ngraham, mart Reviewed By: #baloo, #vdg, ngraham Subscribers: plasma-devel Tags: #plasma Differential Revision: https://phabricator.kde.org/D28025 M +119 -113 kcms/baloo/filteredfoldermodel.cpp M +18 -12 kcms/baloo/filteredfoldermodel.h M +76 -19 kcms/baloo/package/contents/ui/main.qml https://commits.kde.org/plasma-desktop/7498b41a1979b084d05b99a51d3561eeef68e974
