I downloaded plus ungzipped tracker_0.6.93.orig.tar.gz and read its
readme. I didn't kill the elder buggy trackerd. To configure new
installation of trackerd first I ran - by mistake - : sudo ./configure
--prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --enable-deskbar-
applet=auto --with-deskbar-applet-dir=/usr/lib/deskbar-
applet/{handlers,modules-2.20-compatible}. ("sudo" wasn't supposed to be
there + the last two items were to intsall trackerd's deskbar applet.)
Secondly, trackrd's config.log did not allow me to run configuration
anew correctly without the "sudo". I deleted the config.log and started
anew correctly: ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc
--localstatedir=/var --enable-deskbar-applet=auto --with-deskbar-applet-
dir=/usr/lib/deskbar-applet/{handlers,modules-2.20-compatible}. In the
configuration process I had to add these packages via synaptic package
manager: zlib1g-dev, libgliv2.0-dev, libpango1.0-dev, libgmime-...,
libdbus1-dev + libdbus-glib-1, intltool, libhal-storage-dev,
libxml2-dev, libsqlite3-dev, starting the configuration abt ten times.
Then the configuration process finished successfully and printed on
screen that I make sure sqlite is made or intsalled with a special
attribute (for the deskbar applet to work, I suppose). (I failed to save
the attribute details.) - Not knowing how to do that I ommited this.
Finally I ran "make" and "sudo make install" successfully.
However, the bug, the trackerd's obtrusive three-item choice (reindex /
cancel / ok), eating 99-100% of cpu resources, is back as soon as I
stick my usb in the laptop.
As you can see I'm a layman and will be grateful for any tip.
