Tracker 1.5.0 revamps the ontology documentation, fixes high memory consumption in the tracker-extract component, repairs deceptive “out of space” checks, and adds support for searching files by tags to the tracker-needle component, which now uses gsettings. Moreover, extraction of GStreamer-based albums now works correctly, several compiler warnings were addressed, and support for rebuilding FTS tokens on tokenizer changes was added.
