I would use:

  make maintainer-clean

Make sure you are not running trackerd or tracker-indexer first.

Before doing any installing or even the make maintainer-clean I would:

  sudo make uninstall
  sudo rm -Rf /usr/bin/tracker*
  sudo rm -Rf /usr/libexec/tracker*
  sudo rm -Rf /usr/lib/tracker/
  sudo rm -Rf /usr/share/tracker/
  rm -Rf ~/.cache/tracker
  rm -Rf ~/.local/share/tracker
  rm -Rf ~/.config/tracker

I would also do:

  find /usr -name '*tracker*'

And make sure EVERYTHING is removed first. Then when you autogen again, use:

  CFLAGS="-g -O0" ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --localstatedir=/var
--sysconfdir=/etc

(the CFLAGS for in case you need to valgrind or gdb it)

BUT even better, completely re-check out the the branch to be sure.

There is also the thumbnailer which is no longer installed in /usr/bin.

As above, don't forget the config.

I would make sure you run a specific version instead of just letting the
path find trackerd, i.e. /usr/libexec/trackerd.

I have freshly installed the packages on the Maemo device this week and
the tracker-search works fine (of course the TST doesn't).

I will check this.
I know it happens,
I just need to fix it.
I found indexing today to be incredibly slow, so I was just
investigating that.
