I get the same error as Alex, but for TGA files:

```
tracker-extract[13828]: Call to 
gst_discoverer_discover_uri(file://[...]/Ale_col.tga) failed: Internal data 
stream error.
```

The error only occurs with certain TGAs, I shall attaching one below.

My current workaround is to add '*.tga' to
"/org/freedesktop/tracker/miner/files/ignored-files" in `dconf-editor`.

Title:
  Abysmal memory leak on tracker-extract

Status in tracker package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After upgrading from 18.10 to 19.04 my Ubuntu desktop started lagging
  madly. It became very difficult to use and I discovered the problem to
  be tracker-extract running and very rapidly leaking memory up to 100%
  and breaching into swap memory. I tried killing it several times but
  Tracker appears to relaunch it every time, so I deleted it from
  /usr/lib/tracker entirely.
