But that's not a syncing problem. Fixing this one would only require looking through the code and making sure the assert can't ever happen. Not too difficult once I get around doing it :)
sounds good, lookin' forward to it. ;)
Actually it is a syncing problem, but not like the others. It happens when Dovecot tries to update maildir (flags, expunges) but finds out that some file is missing, so it tries to sync the maildir to find it. Except it is already in the middle of syncing index, so it crashes. Have to think a while what is the right fix for this.
Sounds confusing. Shouldn't the index-sync just be delayed if there's one in progress already? I imagine something like while ( log->index->log_locked ) usleep(500);. After all it's locked, isn't it?
