tracker-miner-fs crashes on Ubuntu 20.04

I upgraded to Ubuntu 20.04 today, and after this upgrade tracker-miner-fs seems to crash and restart contiguously; pegging my CPU at 100% until I manually kill the process.

The error I'm getting in /var/log/syslog is:

There's isntructions to permanently stop this process, but I would rather to see it work.

Removing the tracker database seems to have done the trick:

rm -r ~/.cache/tracker

This solution worked for me...

So how to completely disable Tracker, so it no longer indexes any files, and stop having any Tracker process running in the background? You can mask the Tracker systemd services to completely disable it for your current user using this command:

$ systemctl --user mask tracker-store.service tracker-miner-fs.service tracker-miner-rss.service tracker-extract.service tracker-miner-apps.service tracker-writeback.service

After this, reset Tracker:
