i can confirm gps working here.

i have a problem with trackerd.
With newer glib it can't reindex the files and update the database.

If the database /home/user/.local/share/tracker/data/common.db does not exists, tracker does not create a new one.
(also the log /home/user/.local/share/tracker/trackerd.log remains untouched)

To confirm the issue, it's the second time i go back to glib 2.22.4 and tracker starts working again.

As soon as i downgrade glib(also without reboot), trackerd can run again restarting the daemon.

the same...

Everything looks fine here after upgrade. How exactly did you confirm that trackerd doesn't work?

I have changed/moved a few media files, forced a trackerd rebuild db.
Result: ZERO files available. (no images, no video, no music)

reboot, rebuild db... ZERO files (also no tracked-indexer process = no cpu load)

downgrade glib ....rebuild db ok, tracked-indexer process with usual cpu load. All fine

- then second try.
Upgraded glib. Reboot. Forced trackerd to rebuild the db. nothing... no process, no db, no log, no cpu load.
Downgrade glib. Force rebuild... high cpu load, process present, logs updated and db updated in some minute.

I see no problem here, my tracker database got rebuild after some time.

# syslog - NO TRACKER MSG

EDIT:
I think i have found the problem.
It happens with new glib when tracker-indexer finds the file:
/usr/share/tracker/languages/stopwords.en
empty, 0 byte.

Removing stopwords.en or adding a few spaces inside seems to solve the problem but does not explain the different behavior with new glib..

Maybe a bug in tracker, will try to reproduce it.

@xes: wait, why do you stop/rebuild tracker db as root? You should do that as user.

@freemangordon

yep. i know. It was a lapsus.
All tests were mere in a proper way.
(for example also restarting from tracker-cfg)
