Subject: tracker: getenv() implicitly converted to pointer

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Package: tracker
Version: 0.6.2-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
Usertags: implicit-pointer-conversion

Our automated buildd log filter[1] detected a problem that is likely to
cause your package to segfault on architectures where the size of a
pointer is greater than the size of an integer, such as ia64 and amd64.

This is often due to a missing function prototype definition.
For more information, see [2].

Patch attached.
