wikidb.links subdirectories - must they be kept?

We're indexing a MediaWiki instance using Lucene on a remote server. Over time, many subdirectories get created in indexes/update/wikidb.links/timestamp on the remote server. Do all these subdirectories need to be kept, or can some/all of them be deleted? Thanks.

Note: We're doing incremental updates using OAIRepository.

Only the last one is needed. It should delete the older ones. Are you using the latest (svn) version of the extension?

I am using lucene-search 2.1.3 on the index host.

The auto-deletion worked when lucene-search was running on the same server as Mediawiki. Since we put lucene-search on a separate server, the deletion has stopped working. Any ideas?

In the meantime, I wrote a cron job to clean up.
