Bug Description
I suddenly ran out of disk space today.
I tracked it down to
~/.local/
-rw------- 1 robertc robertc 12732453806 2007-08-20 13:46 tracker.log
Thats right. 12G of log.
Now, I've never done anything with tracker, I don't use it, didn't install it, haven't altered configuration settings. So this is a pretty huge time bomb waiting for users.

The log contents seem to be mainly: /applications/ screensavers/ sundancer2. desktop

Seems to be the pattern of most of the messages. If the database is corrupt, surely tracker should stop trying rather than spinning useless?
