You can get more reports from Fedora's FAF server: https://retrace.fedoraproject.org/faf/reports/420211/

And this is list of all crashes caught by ABRT in Fedora, may be you can fix all of them in once. https://retrace.fedoraproject.org/faf/problems/hot/*/*/tracker/

Hi Vit, the bugs you've reported are all quite different. 1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1157177 This looks like a GStreamer bug, not a Tracker bug. 2. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1157176 This has been fixed in master - well, I say fixed, you won't get SIGABRT any more, your machine will just die when rogue files or libraries bring your machine to your knees. This SIGABRT is a precaution to STOP that happening, but we're getting a lot of bug reports blaming Tracker instead. 3. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1119251 This has been fixed in 1.0.2, 1.2.0 and I could add it into a 0.16.6 if people see it there. There majority of crashers you're seeing are related to tracker-extract and SIGABRT, Tracker is using setrlimit() which signals SIGABRT when massive memory or CPU is used due to 3rd party libraries (Like GStreamer or libgsf, etc) or if you have dodgy content (entirely possibly with MP3s written outside the standards - for example). This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
Hi Martyn, Thanks for looking into this and for explanation. Would you mind to take a look at: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1133924 This seems to be the latest from the series.

This is no longer relevant, the code causing this has been removed.
Thenks. After last updates of my Rawhide, I don't observe tracker crashes anymore. This is great! Thanks Martyn.
