removing tracker itself of course fixes the symptom... but is not the solution!
It would be like removing your stomach simply because you have a stomach ache!

By the way deleting ~/.cache/tracker is the actual workaroud.

locate is useful, but not an alternative to tracker. Locate is simply a 
filename search tool, while tracker is much more:
- search your emails
- search your files sorting them according their types (images, ODT, PDFs...)
- search inside your file contents all at once.

E.g. it enables you to find your Ratatouille receipt despite its
filename being aunt-rata.txt
