Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: tracker

In a fresh intrepid install tracker does not index the contents of
openoffice files. I have even manually installed odt2txt package but it
doesn't solve the problem.

After further investigation, it seems that tracker is trying to use
o3read to read the contents of openoffice files. Since the package is
not installed (and it is even not present in the repository), tracker
fails to read the contents.

To solve the problem here I have installed the o3read package from
feisty.

I see two ways to solve this bug:

1) Make tracker use odt2txt (and make it depend on it, or at least suggest it).
2) Bring o3read back (but I don't know what it was dropped from the repository 
in the first place)
