I upgraded to Ubuntu 19.10 and, whenever I turn on the PC, a tracker-miner-fs error pops up and wants me to report it to Ubuntu.
Does anyone know how to solve this? Is it "normal"?

are you sure it is `tracker-min-fs` and not `tracker-miner-fs`? https://askubuntu.com/questions/346211/tracker-store-and-tracker-miner-fs-eating-up-my-cpu-on-every-startup – Rinzwind Oct 23 '19 at 13:47

I had the same issue after upgrading to 19.10.
tracker-miner-fs is part of GNOME and indexes your files. See the description here.
A quick fix that is linked/mentioned in the upstream issue is to reset the tracker by deleting the folders ~/.cache/tracker and ~/.local/share/tracker.
After that the program starts without any issue.
