Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: tracker

Tracker keeps on indexing things on the disk, when run with -v 3 I see
it's actually continually indexing the same file:

processing /home/scott/xmp:- with action TRACKER_ACTION_WRITABLE_FILE_CLOSED 
and counter 0 
mime is image/gif for /home/scott/xmp:-
file /home/scott/xmp:- is indexable
file /home/scott/xmp:- has fulltext 0 with service Images
Indexing /home/scott/xmp:- with service Images and mime image/gif (existing)
file changes to /home/scott/xmp:- is pausing tracker
File /home/scott/xmp:- has finished changing
Image:Height = 300
Image:Width = 400

etc.

So what keeps writing this file?

TRACKER!

Tracker is bogusly dumping output into my home directory, and then indexing it 
which causes it to update the dumped output over and over and over and over and 
over and over and over and over
