The transmission part of this bug is essentially a dupe of bug 183501,
and since tracker has already been fixed, I'm closing the transmission
task.

Transmission should use a temp-dir to exclude from indexing
Nevertheless the suggestion was good. I, for instance, would like to
download to a temporary directory in ram (which I have plenty of, free)
while my disks are spun down, which would only get online again once the
film is complete. That way my server (using laptop-mode) would be most
of the time
This was fixed in Tracker 0.6.6 in Hardy:
tracker (0.6.6-0ubuntu1) hardy; urgency=low
* New upstream release.
* Merge with Debian, remaining Ubuntu changes:
- debian/control:
+ Addhere to DebianMaintainerField spec.
+ Do not build-depend on universe dependencies:
The next (not yet in ubuntu) version of tracker will stop trying to
index a file if it has changed 10 or so times in a certain period of
time, so that should solve this bug.

I assume that Transmission opens files it's editing in write (or read-
write) mode. Why is tracker nosy enough to be indexing things currently
open for writing?
I believe this is not a feature to implement in Transmission because
it's nothing but a hackish workaround for a deeper problem: Tracker
ok, so let's assume that the user downloads a torrent containing 30
lectures in xvid, each 700MB in size. With the improvements in Tracker,
he'd only have to index the 700MB files 300 times for nothing? I think
it's a little early to talk about that 10 times in a certain amount of
time feature as
Is there a way Transmission can tell tracker via an API call or command
to add or remove files from indexing exclusion on the fly? It already
does this for mdutil on OS X, and probably can be done on Ubuntu as an
analog if Tracker supports doing this.

In #ubuntu-devel, jamiemcc said that the trackerd people are working on
a new release that detects files that change too often. They're aiming
for getting this release in the Feb 14 freeze, so IMO this ticket will
be moot in a week or so.

I can see why you'd consider this a wishlist bug, but I'm not sure it
should be. Trackerd runs as default on all new Ubuntu installations and
other GNU/Linux distros. Transmission is now a default application in
Hardy Heron as well and Transmissions features will cause the system to
slow down
Doesn't Tracker stop indexing a file once it starts to change too often?

I don't know about that. Sounds like a good idea. However, a torrent
often is a set of many files, so the problem might persist in any case.
There is also totem-video-thumbnailer. I don't know if that's run
seperately or by tracker-extract though, but they both work very hard
when downloading
