Install Archlabs 2020.11.04

 On 22/11/2020 I installed new version of Archlabs.

First must update archlabs-installer.

Just follow the step given by the installer.

This time the installation is very smooth and fast. It takes around 20-30 minutes.

Everything is good and nice.

 

Tracker Store high cpu usage

after having tracker-store running with almost 100% CPU, almost all the time for 7 days now, it seems like I found an easy fix:

tracker reset --hard

CAUTION: This process may irreversibly delete data.
Although most content indexed by Tracker can be safely reindexed, it can?t be assured that this is the case for all data. Be aware that you may be incurring in a data loss situation, proceed at your own risk.

Are you sure you want to proceed? [y|N]: 

/usr/lib/tracker/tracker-store process is gone for now, fan is spinning down, and everything seems quiet after a week. Haven't tested a reboot though...
