Package: tracker-extract Version: 1.4.0-3 Followup-For: Bug #752767 Dear Maintainer,
I do understand, that: "tracker-extract *does* require ressources to index your file system / home directory." However my point is, that I don't want it to index anything. I don't need this service. I don't want any system tools to index my files and I don't want to waste CPU power for it. The problem however is that I can't disable it any convenient way. I really want to disable it on the system level for all users without deinstalling it (as some useful packages depend on it). Of course I can rename the "tracker-extract" binary to "tracker-extract.deleted" (which will help until nearest upgrade of. I can run "killall -9 tracker-extract" every 10 minutes using cron. I can imagine many similar workarounds. The real problem is that even when I run "tracker-preferences" and removed all directories in "Locations" tab, it still gets started (and anyway I'd need to do it for all users individually).
