I have created two alphabetical indexes using concordance files. The document already has a TOC at its beginning (front matter, latin numeral pages). The alphabetical indexes include also the contents of the TOC, which does not make sense in terms of publishing: indexes are a reference to the main text of a document and should not be a *reference to a reference* to the main text such as the TOC. Obviously a workaround is to delete the TOC, insert the alphabetical indexes and re-create the TOC, but this is rather sloppy. PS: As an offshoot to this bug, indexing in general could use an enhancement, namely the capability to index selected ranges of the text (e.g. sections or chapters). In the present setup: -a TOC can refer to a chapter or to an entire document, so if it is in the front matter (i.e. outside any specific chapter) it can only index the entire text. To index a specific chapter ot should be place after heading 1, which for publication purposes is totally inadequate -an alphabetical index also indexes the front matter meterials (latin numeral pages) which, according to various style guides, should not be indexed. This is just a side note, I will file an enhancement request shortly.

I uploaded a test document and the concordance file that goes along. Try deleting the TOC and refreshing the alphabetical index. Certain pages will disappear.
Ok, I see the alphabetical index has cauliflower 1,2 / eggplant 1,2 / purple 1,2 / white 1,2. I guess this is what you mean by TOC contents being included. For some reason, only in Linux, if I first update TOC and then alph. index, the problem goes away! Cauliflower is only 2 etc. On Windows, I do have to delete the TOC and then update alph. index to get the correct result. I don't understand, why the page count shows 5, although there are 4 pages. Lowered severity because a workaround exists: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/images/0/06/Prioritizing_Bugs_Flowchart.jpg Win 7 Pro 64-bit, Version: 4.4.4.3 Build ID: 2c39ebcf046445232b798108aa8a7e7d89552ea8 Locale: fi_FI Version: 5.1.0.0.alpha1+ Build ID: 902255645328efde34ddf62227c8278e8dd61ff0 TinderBox: Win-x86@39, Branch:master, Time: 2015-07-30_03:52:07 Locale: en-US (fi_FI) Ubuntu 15.04 64-bit Version: 4.4.4.3 Build ID: 40m0(Build:3) Locale: en_US.UTF-8
