There is no such option, but may be useful in the case of
tracker-extract.

Anyway, for debugging errors on specific files with tracker-extract you
can always manually call it like:
   $> /usr/libexec/tracker-extract -f /path/to/file/with/problems
(the path of tracker-extract may be different in your system)

This is usually enough for debugging such errors.
