Hello, I have recently begun to use again gnome session and I have reinstalled nautilus. I see that nautilus depends on tracker and so the reinstall put in tracker and its things
And this morning in my F28 system with SSD disk (I don't imagine on a normal sata based environment) I had to kill tracker-extract and tacker-miner processes because they hogged my cpu for several minutes..
Searching with google I found different info about disabling (or at least calm down) tracker, but they all seem not updated, in the sense that several commands/services are not present in my f28 environment.
Any pointer about configuring and/or disabling it?
Thanks in advance, Gianluca

I disable tracker* from /etc/xdg/autostart/ changed autostart = true to autostart = false and that tame the beast for me.

There are some suggestions on this almost 7 year old bug "provide a method to disable tracker":

Thanks! This way seems to work good in F28.
Just a confirmation: the last command is needed only to purge old generated files/databases for that connected user, correct? So in case of multiple users you need to run it for every one who has logged in before to purge all?

today updates seemed to get in again tracker... seemed a weak dependency
So after accepting and rebooting, again hog my cpu and I rexecuted the steps described by Dario that went this way

Yes, if I run update tracker-miners is installed by weak dependencies

the it's useful put "exclude=tracker-miners" into /etc/dnf/dnf.conf
In this way, tracker-miners is non installed
Thanks

Just to notice that after updating to Fedora 30, nautilus version 3.32.0-1.fc30.x86_64 is not able to start and makes a core dump without tracker-miners installed.
$ nautilus
(org.gnome.Nautilus:11140): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: 15:47:00.471: Settings schema 'org.freedesktop.Tracker.Miner.Files' is not installed Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)
So I had to comment out the line exclude=tracker-miners in /etc/dnf/dnf.conf to be able to install and have nautilus working. Let's see if it hogs again my cpu as before... and I have to find another solution for it...
HIH others, Gianluca

I do not want tracker-miners and all his lineage, me too have removed tracker-miners and disable tracker.
Luckily I use nemo file manager, I do not use anymore nautilus, IMHO it's a bad file manager.
and this is another good reason to keep away from it
Thank for this notice.

I agree. It's merely a file browser, it's missing the features you need to *manage* files.
This is another efficient way to kill this annoying app

cit: "Let's see if it hogs again my cpu as before"
if so: sudo sed -i 's/X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=.*/X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=false/' /etc/xdg/autostart/tracker-*.desktop
note: .../tracker-*... to disable all tracker stuff
