Hello again, on the same machine, I replaced my whole home directory by a fresh one. This solved the problem for a bit more than one month, but tracker came back blocking my computer this morning. Its version is now 0.14.1-1+b1. The only solution I found for the moment is to purge tracker with dpkg --force.
