Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: tracker
For what I can see the tracker try to index RAW images files with the following
command line:
dcraw -w -c /tmp/magicv2wc64
Now I can't understand why you care about white balance when you are trying to
extract information about the image.
The only useful informatio you can find in a RAW image are metadata. And you
don't need to decode the whole image
(very time and memory consuming).
You probably need just:
dcraw -i - v
from the dcraw man page:
-i Identify files but don't decode them. Exit status is 0 if dcraw can
decode the last file, 1 if it can't. -i -v shows metadata.
If you instead want the image for the thumbnail, instead of decoding the image
you can use the thumbnail that is inside
the image (much much faster) with:
dcraw -e
I have many raw images and I can't use my computer as soon as tracker
starts indexing them.
