Hi!
A few days ago I did a system update and pacman says that tracker conflicts with libtracker and so dependencies could not be solved. I can't remove libtracker, it depends on nautilus, so I removed tracker and a "pacman -Syu" works again. But I can not reinstall tracker because of the conflict with libtracker.
So is this a bug? I don't know what exactly to do now because I am kind of new to the Arch Community.
Any help on this would be appreciated.
thx in advance

I have exactly the same problem here.
€dit: Just found this, and the mentioned solution
pacman -Rd libtracker
pacman -S tracker
worked for me.

didn't work for me either however
sudo pacman -Rd tracker
sudo pacman -Syu
worked fine
the version of tracker for me was tracker-0.6.91-4 (not sure which version I upgraded from)
I'm on x86_64 FWIW; I don't think your WM/DE is going to make a difference
Edit: actually the conflict between tracker and libtracker still exists if I
sudo pacman -S tracker
just doesn't come up if I
sudo pacman -Syu
so I guess the question may still be there

sorry, i didn't make myself clear.
1. tracker will install after removing libtracker
2. tracker seemed to load fine
3. tracker didn't seem to index properly even if told to reindex
4. tracker search returns item counts on the left panel but items on right pane

Sorry for the late answer. The solution from jbob worked for me but now tracker is not indexing correctly. It crashes everytime with "Index corrupted" messages. I reinstalled the package, it didnt work. So I tell Gnome not to launch tracker at startup but trackerd and tracker-indexer are running and after a few minutes my CPU load is going to 100%....I think I'm going to pacman -Rd tracker, this thing starts to go on my nerves.:rolleyes:

Reindexing from the tracker-applet is not working for me but
tracker-processes -r
works. At least the new index is building now and it did not crash after 2 minutes like the last time when I told tracker to reindex via applet.

tracker is taking too much CPU load now. It's a pity it's a gnome dependancy, I don't want to have this anymore. I've removed it with "pacman -Rd tracker".

removing tracker is not a solution, because it prevents nautilus to start. I just want to disable this thing I don't need, I don't use, but takes 100% of my CPU when it's running (even if I don't use gnome at the moment)!
I'd prefer to have it as a daemon I could disable but it's not the case.
