OK, thank you.  
I did this and now /usr/share/tracker/services/default.service
is used by trackerd and common.db is newly generated and it also
contains the new data (I checked it with "sqlite3 common.db .dump") 
BUT....
it has no influence on the working of trackerd.
I added "image/vnd.djvu", "application/x-gzpostscript" and
"application/x-bzpostscript" to the mime types for the "Documents"
service in default.service; but  trackerd still uses service "Other"
for .ps.gz and .ps.bz2 files and service "Image" for .djvu files and
doesn't index them. (I also added simple filters for the compressed
postscript types.)


Any ideas?
