That's actually a separate tool, but I'm guessing it will start using Tracker (or something similar) as a backend soon too. > ii libtrackerclient0 0.6.1-1 metadata database... > > this is what I have installed, but not the package "tracker" itself. > Could you elaborate on that a bit more?

You will need the tracker package installed (and trackerd running) for this to work. The client lib could have a Recommends on tracker, but I'm guessing it doesn't by design (not everyone want to have desktop search and indexing). I don't know how this will be handled in the future (in Nautilus 2.20) but I hope it will silently fall back to normal search if tracker isn't found. -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 760BDD22
