I can confirm this on 7.10 w/latest.  Might be a duplicate of bug
#163544, where I originally posted.  If not, I'm posting here, too :-)

It was working fine, and then suddenly stopped returning any results
whatsoever.  Killall trackerd and restarting the process via terminal
restored functionality immediately.

Potential contributors:
1) Deskbar crashes regularly
2) I've installed a 3rd party Thunderbird extension to have tracker index 
Thunderbird e-mail until it is officially supported in tracker-proper.  
However, tracker was working fine for the longest time with this extension 
installed and working.  Both of them stopped working together, so I had to 
restart each separately.
3) I haven't restarted/shut down the computer for weeks.  It has gone through 
dozens of suspend/hibernate and resume cycles, so there might have been an 
issue there.

I say #3 above because I realize that every suspend/hibernate and resume
cycle is unique.  Some are a bit buggy, some are perfect.  Of the ones
that are buggy, there are only a few consistent bugs and several
seemingly-random bugs.  This might be one of them.
