Package: apt-xapian-index
Version: 0.16
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

use case:

 1. I install apt-xapian-index with a package manager
 2. apt-xapian-index is installed and postinst runs the indexer in
    background
 3. I get back into the package manager, which runs apt-xapian-index,
    which connects to the running indexer and reports progress, which
    the package manager displays in a progress bar
 4. I get bored of waiting and click on an Abort button.  The package
    manager should be able to stop the background indexer, but at the
    moment the only thing that it can do is to stop the updater that it
    ran.  This will leave the indexer working in the background.

This could be solved by implementing an update-apt-xapian-index --stop
option that connects to a running indexer and tells it to stop and
remove the partially built index.


Ciao,

Enrico
