Description Michael Biebl 2009-02-11 15:20:58 UTC 
trackerd is not logging all it's log messages to trackerd.log
One can find messages like this in .xsession-errors

    Initialising tracker...

Everything but errors should end up in trackerd.log only though.

We have changed the behaviour now actually so we only print 2 lines (the log file location and that we are initialising). These two lines are printed to STDOUT.
I have not seen this reproduced since this change. Marking as FIXED.
Comment 2 Martyn Russell 2010-05-17 13:35:23 UTC 
Moving "Daemon" component bugs to "General" since "Daemon" refers to the old 0.6 architecture
