Really. Should we add a warning "if you change this, you have voided your
warranty"?
I mean, this sounds like "I killed 10 processes that were taking up too much
mem. My computer stopped working. Where can I file a bug?"
The index file is never wrong. Period. There is no way the grimoire can get
changed by sorcery without a reindex.
My point is: If you do things you're not really supposed to without fully
understanding/doing what you're supposed to do, things will break. That is the
reason why a warranty expires when you start fiddling with stuff.
After any changes to the grimoire, scribe reindex HAS TO be run. As andrew
stated nicely, the purpose of a cache is to be as up to date as the thing it's
caching. It's the same here.
Of /course/ we could add >1024 sanity checks to sorcery - md5sum checks of the
sorcery scripts... Checking every single environment variable... cleanse --fix
all of the basesystem before every cast... There are perfectly good reasons to
do all those, but also >10 good reasons not to.
