tracker doesn't find results for email address

[Tom Haddon]

Binary package hint: tracker

I have upgraded to gutsy. I have let the tracker daemon run for a few days to be sure it has indexed all my emails and documents, and I have ensured in the tracker setup tool that it should be indexing my Evolution emails.

I have an email from a particular person, but when I search on their last name, I get no results in tracker.

[Erik Andrén (erik-andren)]

Does tracker miss all persons or just a particular one?

[Tom Haddon (mthaddon)]

Now I'm not getting results for anything. Have tried my own name (first and last) as well as some others that should be very obvious...

[Pedro Villavicencio (pedro)]

That works fine here, does it works if you delete the tracker db and start indexing again?

[Tom Haddon (mthaddon)]

Is that just deleting ~/.local/share/tracker/data/common.db ?

How do I then restart indexing? I'm now getting this message when I try the search tool:

Process /usr/bin/trackerd exited with status 0

Sounds like I need to just start again with tracker. Can someone show me how to do that?

[Emilio Pozuelo Monfort (pochu)]

trackerd --reindex

[Jamie McCracken (jamiemcc-blueyonder)]

I would wait for 0.6.3 which should be around monday next week

0.6.2 has a few bugs (incuding only finding the first person and not multiple ones in emails)

tracker (0.6.3-0ubuntu1) gutsy; urgency=low

  [ Emilio Pozuelo Monfort ]
  * New upstream release (LP: #130794, #131983, #132320, #137352, #138331,
    #139173, #132505, #131559, #131735, #132710, #133246, #137873, #138778.
  * debian/patches/01-version_fix.patch,
    debian/patches/02-getenv.patch,
    - Removed, fixed upstream.
  * debian/patches/03-system_ioprio.patch: not needed anymore, as tracker
    now tries ioprio system syscalls if available.
  * debian/patches/01_from_upstream_fix_stemming.patch:
    - Added, fixes language selection.

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * debian/control: Promote o3read to a dependency. That way, updates will get
    it, too, and we avoid making it a dependency of ubuntu-desktop. With the
    external dependency we can avoid installing the internal code copy.
