Please ignore my earlier comment. This does still occur, I just didn't
see it has I had inadvertently set apport to automatically report so
there was no pop-up. After boot, tracker seems to run normally, at least
initially:

merlin@Minmus:~$ tracker status
Currently indexed: 26384 files, 2120 folders
Remaining space on database partition: 735.6 GB (83.31%)
Data is still being indexed: Estimated 02m 44s left

After the crash, I see:

merlin@Minmus:~$ tracker status
Currently indexed: 0 files, 0 folders
Remaining space on database partition: 735.4 GB (83.29%)
Data is still being indexed: Estimated 36s left

Deleting the database at ~/.cache/tracker/meta.db does not fix the
problem. My theory is that tracker encounters something in my files that
causes a crash.

Following Almer's lead I looked at /var/log/syslog:

been removed and will be recreated on the next start. Shutting down now.

I tried removing the file b00035.au but tracker still crashes. I have
two systems that behave in the same way. The home folder is almost
identical on both, which supports my "poison file" hypothesis.
