Tracker-3.5.0 uses gi-docgen instead of gtk-doc. The doc is installed into /usr/share/doc/Tracker-3.0 if gi-docgen is installed, and we need to rename the directory.

Two tracker-miner tests fail for me, but it seems because I've not installed gst-libav (as recommended).

Now 3.5.1.

    error processing purposes

  * Fix several possible crashers
  * Fix bashisms in doc generation scripts
  * Fix ISO8601 date strings in cursors on Darwin

I'm going to proceed with the update, but Xi, I could use your help on the documentation for tracker afterwards. I pinged you with IRC in details, but in summary:

• You have to turn -Dman=false to -Dman=true as well or otherwise you'll get an error
• Graphviz is required for documentation (needs the 'dot' command)
• It'll refuse to regenerate documentation unless docs/reference/libtracker-sparql/doc is removed
• There's only one reference to Tracker-3.0 in a meson.build file anywhere in the tarball, and it is in docs/reference/libtracker-sparql. Upstream takes advantage of subdirectories quite a bit here. The variable is called "docs_name", and changing it to Tracker-3.5.3 from Tracker-3.0 still results in a Tracker-3.0 directory, and "fixed.devhelp2" is installed in /usr/share/doc on it's own as well.

We could always just rename the directories post-install, but I'd like you to take a closer look at it once I've got the update in.

Note: One test, tracker:fts/fts, fails due to a bugfix in SQLite 3.42.x. ​https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/tracker/-/issues/405 has more details - it seems to be just isolated to tests, so let's let upstream fix it.
