There's no need to take a look at it anymore.

You either keep it the way it is now, but then you shouldn't be
surprised, if your install gets broken one day after an upgrade, or
if possible you try to purge all the "tracker" packages as recommended
by Karl and never installs something that depends on one of those
packages.

Note, for Nautilus it's just a suggested dependency, even not a
recommended one,
http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial-updates/nautilus ,
but for ubuntu-gnome-desktop,
http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial-updates/ubuntu-gnome-desktop , it's a
hard dependency.

IOW it might be that you can't purge the tracker packages, then you
need to do what I described in my reply to Karl and you.
