I have this issue and my version of Tracker is 0.8.16-0ubuntu1 in Maverick. Is it possible that this isn't fixed in this version? Should I open a new bug? Here is my problem in detail: I added only Documents folder to index recursively and after few hours it has indexed every possible partition on my hard disc. Here is my .config/tracker/tracker-miner-fs.cfg
