not really - ubuntu put an exception so that crashes in tracker-extract are no longer reported a while back its designed to crash to protect the system from undesirable resource usage. Its generally not possible to fix it as the extractors will always be open to third parties to produce their own thus its prudent to have a safety net in place jamie _______________________________________________ tracker-list mailing list tracker-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/tracker-list
