Public bug reported:

Impact
=====
This update includes the new bugfix releases 1.10.1 and 1.10.2
https://git.gnome.org/browse/tracker/tree/NEWS?h=tracker-1.10
https://git.gnome.org/browse/tracker/log?h=tracker-1.10

The major change is that the tracker extractor is now confined by
libseccomp for better security (LP: #1648921)

Test Case
=========
I recommend testing with Ubuntu GNOME 16.10 since it includes tracker.
1. After installing the update, log out and log back in just to make sure 
you're running the updated tracker
2. Download some pictures or music files to an indexed folder (~/Downloads, 
~/Music, ~/Pictures are good)
3. Wait a few moments and see if the files show up in the GNOME Music app, the 
GNOME Photos app, and/or the GNOME Shell Activities Overview when searching for 
that filename.
4. You can also look for any tracker errors to show up in the GNOME Logs app 
(gnome-logs is a frontend to the systemd journal)

Regression Potential
====================
Low. Ensure that tracker still works.
