I wonder if this is a bug or whether its actually doing something useful? I'm also wondering if its sensible to stop tracker from starting in KDE? I could submit a BZ requesting that they not start in KDE, but what happens if someone runs eg totem or shotwell which seem to have a dependency on tracker? Do those apps start the tracker processes on the fly or do they just miss the tracker functionality? Oh, I see someone got to the BZ nearly two months before me: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=771601 Does anyone have a view on this? Maybe we are just hitting a bug in tracker-store and it would be ok to have it running if the bug were not there? Thanks.
