tracker-miner-fs ubuntu 19.10

Question

I upgraded to Ubuntu 19.10 and, whenever I turn on the PC, a tracker-miner-fs error pops up and wants me to report it to Ubuntu.

Does anyone know how to solve this? Is it "normal"?

are you sure it is tracker-min-fs and not tracker-miner-fs? https://askubuntu.com/questions/346211/tracker-store-and-tracker-miner-fs-eating-up-my-cpu-on-every-startup — Rinzwind, Oct 23 '19 at 13:47

I had the same issue after upgrading to 19.10.

tracker-miner-fs is part of GNOME and indexes your files. See the description here.

A quick fix that is linked/mentioned in the upstream issue is to reset the tracker by deleting the folders ~/.cache/tracker and ~/.local/share/tracker.

After that the program starts without any issue.
