Tracker seems to be configured in dconf in /org/freedesktop/tracker .
You can use dconf-editor to configure that. Or use gsettings:
$ gsettings list-recursively | grep -i org.freedesktop.Tracker
Does anyone know why tracker-preferences package was removed? I can't
find it in
src.fedoraproject.org nor I can find any email about it.
That package is honestly essential. Tracker sooner or later gets
stuck in a loop on about every system I work with.
Upstream decision.
From the release notes of 1.99.0 - 2017-07-06:
" * Deleted tracker-preferences. Tracker has been using GSettings for years,
so doesn't specifically require an UI for it, there's of course room
for desktop integrated configuration, gnome-control-center does this
for example.
