Bug Description

I wondered why my system hadn't slowed down, even though tracker was running. ;-) Turns out tracker-extract hung on an esp file three days ago, and trackerd is sitting around polling on something and waking up about three times a second.

I've seen this with several .psd (photoshop) files too. I haven't managed to reproduce it now that I have debug symbols though.

This should be fixed in 0.6.1 which is now in gutsy - can you confirm if problem still exists with that version?

tracker (0.6.3-0ubuntu1) gutsy; urgency=low

  [ Emilio Pozuelo Monfort ]
  * New upstream release (LP: #130794, #131983, #132320, #137352, #138331,
    #139173, #132505, #131559, #131735, #132710, #133246, #137873, #138778.
  * debian/patches/01-version_fix.patch,
    debian/patches/02-getenv.patch,
    - Removed, fixed upstream.
  * debian/patches/03-system_ioprio.patch: not needed anymore, as tracker
    now tries ioprio system syscalls if available.
  * debian/patches/01_from_upstream_fix_stemming.patch:
    - Added, fixes language selection.

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * debian/control: Promote o3read to a dependency. That way, updates will get
    it, too, and we avoid making it a dependency of ubuntu-desktop. With the
    external dependency we can avoid installing the internal code copy.
