Hi,
I just download 0.5.4 source and build and installed it in /usr/local.
I am running Kubuntu 6.06 and I have a couple of questions.
1. It seems to configure giving the following result:
Tracker-0.5.4:
prefix: /usr/local
source code location: .
compiler: gcc
enable gcc warnings: yes
build with debug symbols: no
database engine: SQLite
file monitor backend to be used: inotify
inotify header location: linux/inotify.h
ioprio support: no
build search tool (GNOME): no
Metadata extractors:
pdf: yes
png: yes
exif (jpeg): yes
gsf: yes
video files: ? (An external video
player will be called)
How do I get it to build the search tool? There are "missing" messages
from configure relevant to GNOME or the GUI. In fact it builds the
makefile for tracker-search-tool but make never goes there.
2. I have the bulk of my personal files in a separate partition
"/usr-files/rozen" and in my home directory "/home/rozen" I have
symbolic links to various directories in "/usr-files/rozen"
Apparently, tracker does not follow symbolic links; it doesn't seem to
index any of those files.
I went into ~/.Tracker/tracker/cfg and added ";/usr-files/rozen, but
nothing seemed to happen when I saved the file. I then used kill to
terminate trackerd and restarted it. But it still does appear to do
anything different. How can I get those additional files indexed? Is
there a command to get tracker to restart with the new config? The line
in th config file is:
WatchDirectoryRoots=/home/rozen;/usr-files/rozen
Tracker looks good. Hope I can get it working for me. It actually does
seem to index my small home directory.
Thanks in Advance,
Don
