+Pazz mentioned a problem wrt reopening a notmuch database immediately\r
+after it has been closed. The problem can be reproduced with this test\r
+case:\r
+\r
+~~~ snip ~~~\r
+import os\r
+import notmuch\r
+\r
+db_path = os.path.expanduser('~/Maildir')\r
+\r
+for i in range(2):\r
+ with notmuch.Database(db_path, mode=notmuch.Database.MODE.READ_WRITE) as db:\r
+ query = db.create_query('tag:inbox AND NOT tag:killed')\r
+ print(len(list(query.search_messages())))\r
+~~~ snap ~~~\r
+\r
+Without this fix, the second loop iteration fails because the xapian\r
+lock is not released in time.\r
+\r
+Cheers,\r
+Justus\r
