Thanks for the tip. Using gstreamer was what was required. It'd less confusing to an end user if tracker detected these missing dependencies and stuck a warning. I saw in the output of configure that video searching was enabled with xine, nothing about audio and since I was using Beagle previously which didn't complain, I assumed that audio extraction was enabled.
Also, when I forcibly selected the trackerapplet option, it'd have been helpful if configure aborted with the missing dependency. I went through the config.log and found out the dependency and installed it. Things are working well now. I couldn't get tracker-0.6.3 to be useful. It never returned me any search results after a while. This version is faring better.
