Comment 60 for bug 1604750

Hi,

It's ok - I learned something from this and I will keep going and
eventually solve :-)
Next time it happens, before you issue the --reinstall command, can you
check the cache file and tell
me if it has the 2 2 (or whatever the number your status shows) or a 0 0 in
it ?
I want to see if the status file was updated or if it is just the date of
the file causing it to not be re-read.

thanks,
mark
