A few things I noticed:

1/ Starting tracker-needle or tracker-preferences from the command
line, I get a lot of debug messages like:
# tracker-needle
(tracker-needle:20965): Tracker-DEBUG: tracker-history.vala:26: Loading history
(tracker-needle:20965): Tracker-DEBUG: tracker-history.vala:56:
Found 22 previous search histories
(tracker-needle:20965): Tracker-DEBUG: tracker-history.vala:58:   Done
(tracker-needle:20965): Tracker-DEBUG: tracker-view.vala:100: using
store:0x894b480
# tracker-preferences
(tracker-preferences:20937): Tracker-DEBUG:
tracker-preferences.vala:61: Getting current settings
(tracker-preferences:20937): Tracker-DEBUG:
tracker-preferences.vala:76: Trying to use UI
file:'/home/michael/debian/build-area/tracker-0.12.1/src/tracker-preferences/tracker-preferences.ui'
(tracker-preferences:20937): Tracker-DEBUG:
tracker-preferences.vala:186: Got response id -7 (apply:-10, close:-7)

Interesting here is also the fact that tracker-preferences tries to
load the ui file from the directory I built the package and not
/usr/share/tracker/tracker-preferences.ui

2/ My settings from 0.10.* are not migrated,
  Is this due to the switch to gsettings?
E.g. If I fire up tracker-preferences all the locations I configured
for indexing are reset.
This is imho a really import bug to fix.

3/ tracker-preferences shows under "Locations"
&DESKTOP
&DOCUMENTS
...
&VIDEOS

ie. no actual folders. Imho this doesn't make it really obvious which
folders are indexed.


Cheers,
Michael
