The solution suggested by Zhian Chen to install libtracker-sparql-3.0-0 
is working also for me. Thanks for this.

For the context, I am using a BTRFS filesystem on a fairly recent fresh 
install of Debian unstable (some thing like 2 months ago). I did not 
disable Tracker or its systemd user. I don't have any nautilus plugins.
I am using sway, so I don't have the full gnome desktop installed.
