Bug Description
Binary package hint: tracker
There is no way (that I have found) to make tracker index the content of my many powerpoint files. Based on numerous forums and websites I have installed both wv and catdoc -- but neither work.
Interestingly, catdoc provides a program called "catppt" which will dump the contents of a powerpoint file to ascii text. Perhaps there is a way to wire this capability into tracker.
