Public bug reported:
Top shows
814:44.76 tracker-miner-f
process now been running for 800 mins. after software-update installed a
new kernal.
This is the second time this has happened.
This is poorly documented software, no description of the metadata anywhere or
any justification for why this softare runs or
is needed. For all I know it could e malicious.
I do not like any software that keeps my disk continually busy for three
days without expaination.
I am going to find the line in the init scripts that kicks this off and
comment it out.

I challenge anyone to explain why this process should be running.
I am ssurely tempted to hange my window manager and possibly dump Ubuntu
and not use Gnome on any other Linux.
