Found a workaround/fix that's more user friendly: sudo apt-get install tracker-utils tracker-processes -r # --hard-reset
Then I logged out and back in so the processes that I had previously killed by hand would restart in a normal fashion. Note that this probably gets rid of data that would be useful in finding a fix for others, which is sad. -- Corrupted tracker index causes persistent applet error popup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/361560 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
