realpath does not convert ~. It just normalize paths like .././../.// and so on
we can really use realpath but this is not a substitute to write
~/documents

When you move home user dir to another path, you must rewrite absolute paths in
tracker cfg file, using ~ is simpler (and shorter).

Yes, i can do that, but i like to have ~ shortcut :) 
I don\'like to know the absolute path to my home.
