On closer inspection, the reason for the idling was that
tracker-extract got stuck with certain video files. Another problem is
that when I restart the PC, and start trackerd, tracker ignores such a
file and states that all data has been flushed away as if it's done
indexing, when it hasn't, and doesn't continue to attempt indexing the
same video again. I will get the log file (my home PC doesn't have web
access, hence the delay).
