Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: tracker
I have tracker configured to watch my home directory and a couple of
other directories, as shown by the log:
02 Feb 2010, 09:45:12: Tracker: State change from 'Initializing' --> 'Watching'
02 Feb 2010, 09:45:12: Tracker: User ignored crawls & monitors:
02 Feb 2010, 09:45:12: Tracker: NONE
02 Feb 2010, 09:45:12: Tracker: User monitors being added:
02 Feb 2010, 09:45:12: Tracker: /home/derek
02 Feb 2010, 09:45:12: Tracker: /home/documents
02 Feb 2010, 09:45:12: Tracker: /home/music/complete
02 Feb 2010, 09:45:12: Tracker: User crawls being added:
02 Feb 2010, 09:45:12: Tracker: /home/derek
02 Feb 2010, 09:45:12: Tracker: /home/documents
02 Feb 2010, 09:45:12: Tracker: /home/music/complete
But if I add a new file, tracker doesn't seem to be notified or notice
the change:
de...@rocky:~$ echo "This is a test" > test.txt
de...@rocky:~$ tracker-info /home/derek/test.txt
Defaulting to 'files' service
Unable to retrieve data for uri, Service URI '/home/derek/test.txt' not found
If I restart tracker, it re-indexes and finds the file:
Tracker-Message: Checking for statistics changes and signalling clients...

Tracker-Message: Updating 'Files' with new count:13911, old count:13910,
