Package: tracker Version: 0.5.4-4 Severity: normal I discovered today, because I found the size of my home dir supsicious, that tracker had stored nearly 1Gb of data in a dot-dir in my $HOME, which I find rather intrusive!
Couldn't tracker respect the XDG basedir spec and store that kind of data in the cache-specific directory by default? In my case, if such programs would do it, it would make backuping a lot easier (i.e. I don't have to check manually what makes the size, only to always exclude my home cache). http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/latest/ -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (502, 'stable'), (501, 'unstable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-2-k7 Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages tracker depends on: ii dbus 1.0.2-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdbus-1-3 1.0.2-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.71-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libexif12 0.6.13-5 library to parse EXIF files ii libglib2.0-0 2.12.4-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgmime-2.0-2 2.2.3-3 MIME library, unstable version ii libgsf-1-114 1.14.3-1 Structured File Library - runtime ii libgstreamer0.10-0 0.10.10-3 Core GStreamer libraries and eleme ii libmagic1 4.17-5 File type determination library us ii libpango1.0-0 1.14.8-5 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpng12-0 1.2.15~beta5-1 PNG library - runtime ii libpoppler0c2-glib 0.4.5-5.1 PDF rendering library (GLib-based ii libsqlite3-0 3.3.8-1 SQLite 3 shared library ii shared-mime-info 0.19-2 FreeDesktop.org shared MIME databa ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-13 compression library - runtime Versions of packages tracker recommends: ii o3read 0.0.4-1 standalone converter for OpenOffic ii poppler-utils [xpdf-utils] 0.4.5-5.1 PDF utilitites (based on libpopple ii tracker-search-tool 0.5.4-4 metadata database, indexer and sea ii tracker-utils 0.5.4-4 metadata database, indexer and sea ii untex 9210-10 Remove LaTeX commands from input ii unzip 5.52-9 De-archiver for .zip files ii w3m 0.5.1-5.1 WWW browsable pager with excellent ii wv 1.2.4-1 Programs for accessing Microsoft W ii xsltproc 1.1.19-1 XSLT command line processor -- no debconf information -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] OpenPGP 0xD9D50D8A
