It=92s okay. I got PM from Mario clarifying things.

I am maintaining KMyMoney on MacPorts and because of it I of course also tr=

to the existence of Spotlight (which is Apple=92s baloo).
I personally mostly don=92t need any indexer, except that I am forced by my=
 email program Mail.app to enable Spotlight for detailed searching features=
 in emails.

No, because I am not yet able to build anything else than the 4.12.4 (which=
 my machine could successfully finish only just now) I cannot test the 4.13.

:) You are right, I meant kdelibs there. But thanks to Frank I already unde=
rstood that kdelibs itself doesn=92t need baloo after all.

So, ok, as I wrote in my reply to Frank: I should preferably simply use Vis=
hesh=92s suggestion and modify baloo=92s configuration file.
