If you delete it in the writable one, the change won't show in the other
until you flush() the writable one and reopen() the other.

But you said that the document isn't deleted once the database is
closed, so it sounds like that isn't the issue.  Is there a way I can
get this to reproduce for myself?  I can install the latest release or
SVN HEAD (or whatever) of recoll, but what about the data?
