+folks has been compiled with the --enable-tracker-backend. By default
+fols (IIRC) does not compile the tracker support and only
+evolution-data-server (which just has a confusing name) is used.

+See also the folks status discussion at the archives of:
+http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/release-team
+
+desktop-devel-list has a message regarding the tracker backend:

+Think folks should not be compiled with the tracker backend (note: won't

+tracker).
