FWIW, I can reproduce this bug. Imo this is the most important
showstopper for me atm.

In addition, I noticed that tracker-preferences tries to respawn
/usr/bin/trackerd, but the trackerd binary is now in libexecdir.

Other points:
* config file of tracker-applet is ~/.config/trackertracker-applet.cfg
* duplicated code in src/libtracker-common/tracker-config(uration).[ch]
* API/ABI break in libtracker-gtk
* The frequency of notifications via tracker-applet has increased a
lot. I constantly get
notifications that tracker has finished indexing, whenever a file
changes in my home dir.
IIRC in 0.6.6 I only got this notification after the initial indexing run.


Cheers,
Michael
