Package: tracker
Version: 0.5.4-4
Severity: normal
trackerd has been running for ages on my machine now, and apparently
doesn't do much except calling poll() and gettimeofday():
gettimeofday({1172239801, 585283}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({1172239801, 585410}, NULL) = 0
poll([{fd=11, events=POLLIN}, {fd=13, events=POLLIN}, {fd=14, events=POLLIN}],
3, 1) = 0
gettimeofday({1172239801, 586140}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({1172239801, 586254}, NULL) = 0
poll([{fd=11, events=POLLIN}, {fd=13, events=POLLIN}, {fd=14, events=POLLIN}],
3, 0) = 0
gettimeofday({1172239801, 586673}, NULL) = 0
poll([{fd=11, events=POLLIN}, {fd=13, events=POLLIN}, {fd=14, events=POLLIN}],
3, 349) = 0
gettimeofday({1172239801, 935215}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({1172239801, 935343}, NULL) = 0
poll([{fd=11, events=POLLIN}, {fd=13, events=POLLIN}, {fd=14, events=POLLIN}],
3, 0) = 0
gettimeofday({1172239801, 935588}, NULL) = 0
poll([{fd=11, events=POLLIN}, {fd=13, events=POLLIN}, {fd=14, events=POLLIN}],
3, 350) = 0
gettimeofday({1172239802, 285154}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({1172239802, 285282}, NULL) = 0
That's the output of strace -p $(pidof trackerd) and goes on like this
forever
trackerd could win a prize for wasting resources - waking up all 350ms
for nothing?
If I enter a search term in "tracker-search-tool" the GUI freezes for
a few minutes or so - and then wakes up again - finding exactly
nothing, regardless what I enter as search term - even if I look for
something really, really common.
Are you sure this software is ready enough for inclusion in Debian?
