It’s disabled by default due to unwanted CPU cycles being used by it in general.

To enable your CPU cycles to go to waste and get a functional tracker, do:

sudo swupd bundle-add tracker-miners

You may need to reboot or logout/login after this command, and wait for the miners to finish their work.
