   # Build sambaFull with Spotlight/tracker support.
   # Fixes for tinysparql 3.x (tracker-sparql-3.0) compatibility:
   #   (1) waf only checks tracker-sparql-{2.0..0.14} — add 3.0
-  #   (2) async-tracker.c uses removed API names — patch to new names
+  #   (2) tevent_glib_tracker test uses removed tracker 2.x API — disable it
+  #       (it's install=False, for_selftest only; rpcd_mdssvc is unaffected)
   #   (3) add icu for Unicode normalisation required by Spotlight
