I was referring to recent Tracker versions as I thought you're trying to
build Tracker from source. Tracker shipped with Debian Squeeze is three
release series behind the current version, so I don't remember the exact
requirements from back then. If it wasn't using GSettings yet, you can
configure Tracker by editing text files in ~/.config/tracker as Martyn
mentioned.
