  libtracker-miner:

  * NB#166767 - Every word in a long tag is indexed separately
  * NB#166684 - Database table is locked issue, SQLITE_MISUSED is reported SQLite error here
  * NB#167616 - Tracker's ISO 8601 timestamp implementation is not correct
  * NB#166717 - Only first DC:Subject and IPTC:Keywords tags are extracted

Translations:
 
  * Updated cs: Petr Kovar
  * Updated de: Mario Blättermann
 
Notes:
 
  Due to the HTML extractor changing the document type from
  nfo:Document to nfo:HtmlDocument, we would advise anyone with these
  files indexed to use:
 
    tracker-control --reindex-mime-type text/html
 
  This should make sure all indexed files are correctly adjusted.
