Comment 0 for bug 1770877

Availability
============
Built for all supported architectures. In sync with Debian.

Rationale
=========
The Ubuntu Desktop team intends to include tracker by default in Ubuntu 18.10 because it is considered a core part of GNOME and strongly recommended by the Nautilus maintainer since it is required for several popular features to work correctly.

tracker is already in main. Last year, upstream split tracker-miners out of the tracker source, so technically this already used to be in main. The tracker MIR was LP: #1313996

Security
========
Tracker is a security-sensitive service. See Other Info for more about the 2016 issues.
