Notes:

  The database version up has been incremented, this will force a
  reindex for any existing Tracker installation.

  The Deskbar applet packaged with Tracker is currently out of date
  and needs some love to get it working with the new APIs. It is in
  the same state as it was for 0.6. As such it isn't expected to work.
