Comment(by aldeck):

 Never seen that problem, will update and have a look.[[BR]]
 Tracker prefs is currently (temporary workaround) a very small app that
 sends a message to Tracker to open it's internal preference panel, if in
 some rare cases, Tracker isn't running it tries to start it.[[BR]]
 Note that in cases such as yours, you should be able to quit (or at worst
 kill) and start again Tracker from ProcessController in the Deskbar. You
 might also get some debug output by starting it (/boot/system/Tracker)
 from the terminal.
