[Tracker] build-failures tracker 1.4.0

[Michael Biebl <mbiebl gmail com>]

Hi!

I'm having trouble getting tracker 1.4.0 to build successfully. It
fails with the following mesage:

For some reason, the build system seems to pick some tracker libraries
which are installed system wide and are currently at version 1.2.6.
Unfortunately, I can't easily uninstall tracker-1.2.6 from the system,
as it would uninstall some import GNOME packages.

That aside, the build system shouldn't pick up the tracker system
libraries but link against the libraries in the build directory.

Does anyone know, how to fix that?

Michael
