It is indeed the case, with the pointy haired boss being the missus and the |
27 |
box in question a production desktop. :-)) |

I have to admit that I can't recall messing up with the ppd files, or indeed |
30 |
ever using hpijs on this box. |

A couple of months ago the akonadi DB went sideways and kmail played up as a |
33 |
result. Again I was suspicious of btrfs, but neither the logs nor fsck showed |
34 |

The OS is on a single SSD (no RAID), with some caches and busy fs mounted on a |
37 |
spinning disk. I have some backups in case of DR, but after a while a |
38 |
corrupted fs will have migrated to the back ups. |
