I'm no longer able to reproduce this -- when I comment out the
database.path from my .notmuch-config, notmuch continues to work
correctly now.

Also, I'm 90% sure that "notmuch config get database.path" was returning
"/home/jack/mail" when I was having problems after updating, but am
unable to confirm this anymore.

Anyways, glad that my email is working again, and thank you David for
your fast response on a Sunday, and for all your work on notmuch.

Best,
Jack
