While digging, I've come that far, too. Can't say I'm happy, because
tracker-preferences at least made it quick and convenient to remove the
index directories.

$ gsettings set org.freedesktop.Tracker.Miner.Files index-recursive-directories []
$ gsettings get org.freedesktop.Tracker.Miner.Files index-recursive-directories
@as []

Big *sigh*. What a poor decision. So much about making desktop user
friendly.  It's not even possible to uninstall it because of dependency
hell and libs usage:
