Nepomuk/Strigi issue(?): files re-indexed after reboot

Hello Everyone
	I apologize if this has already been covered.  If it has, I haven't 
seen it.
	My issue is that I rebooted my Fedora 12 system recently.  Nepomuk 
started up just like it is supposed to.  Unfortunately, the Nepomuk status 
window said that something like 6,000 to 7,000 files had been indexed.  I 
checked my music collection, and sure enough, the mp3's that I checked were 
not showing metadata in the expected location in Dolphin.  So, it looks 
like for some reason, Nepomuk started re-indexing my files.
	That was the bad part.  This is a kind of odd part: before I had over 
25,000 files indexed, and the size of my Nepomuk Store was 3.2 GiB.  So, I 
rebooted, Nepomuk started re-indexing my files, BUT the Store size was 
still 3.2 GiB.  So I "assume" that my database had not been destroyed, but 
Nepomuk just started re-indexing my files for some reason...  Also, like I 
said earlier, the metadata that had been displayed in Dolphin before I 
rebooted was gone after I booted back up.  But, my Store size was still the 
same...

Anyway, has anyone else had this issue?  I will attempt to look for bug 
reports to attach my comments to.  If I don't find any, please let me know 
the exact component to file this particular issue under.
