In #ubuntu-devel, jamiemcc said that the trackerd people are working on
a new release that detects files that change too often.  They're aiming
for getting this release in the Feb 14 freeze, so IMO this ticket will
be moot in a week or so.

07:25 < charles_> jamiemcc: ping
07:25 < jamiemcc> hi charles_
07:25 < charles_> hi
07:25 < charles_> jdong asked me to talk to you about 
                  
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/transmission/+bug/189439
07:26 < ubotu> Launchpad bug 189439 in transmission "Transmission should use a 
temp-dir to exclude from indexing" 
               [Wishlist,Incomplete]
07:26 < charles_> the basic problem is that downloading huge binaries somewhere 
under the users' home directory 
                  seems to mix poorly with indexing :)
07:27 < jamiemcc> charles_: yeah we are working on auto blacklisting files that 
change frequently
07:27 < charles_> the recommendation in that ticket is to download to a tmp dir 
instead, but I'm not sure storing 
                  downloads in a tmp dir is a good idea :)
07:28 < jamiemcc> charles_: we should be able to detect stuff thats chaniging 
too often in the next version
07:28 < charles_> cool
07:28 < charles_> how far away is the next version? 
07:28 < jamiemcc> charles_: we are aiming for feb 14th - the ubuntu feature 
freeze
07:28 < charles_> oh, that's great news
07:29 < charles_> I'll annotate the ticket with that information
07:29 < jamiemcc> charles_: ok thx
07:29 < charles_> thanks
