What
When a vault stops existing - forgotten, deleted, or wiped by panic mode - what does Arcanum still hold about it? I want that answered path by path rather than assumed.
Why now
The media index survived. media_files has no foreign key to cascade from, and nothing deleted its rows, so removing a vault left behind the names and paths of every file that had been inside it. The vault itself is encrypted; the list of what was in it was sitting next to it in plain rows. Fixed in 6145cf4.
It was found by accident: a confirmation dialog was reworded to promise that the cache goes, and checking whether that was true is what turned it up. That is not a way to find the rest of them.
What to check
Every path by which a vault stops existing:
- Forget, from the vault list and from the vault config menu
- Delete the vault file
- Panic mode, in each of its configured actions
- A vault whose file is gone when Arcanum next looks
And for each, what is left:
- thumbnails on disk
media_files rows- the persistable SAF URI permission taken when the vault was added from a picker - is it released, or does Arcanum keep a grant to a file it no longer knows about?
- biometric credentials in the Keystore for that vault
- the saved mount log, which quotes paths
- anything in DataStore keyed by the vault id
- crash logs, which can contain a container path
What "clean" means here
Nothing left that names the vault, its location, or anything that was inside it. A record that only says "a vault existed" is a different question and not this one.
