Hi, Is there a bug in Yosemite that causes the the storage space indicator from the apple menu to show incorrect data?
In My Case, its showing I have 80GB of Apps installed, which i know is not correct as I have about 30GB, However the "Other" Category has disappeared. Is this a known bug?

Code:
sudo mdutil -E /
