To observe the bug, create a folder called "David's Files"
Search for *.log in this folder
An error pop-up message will appear -
Errror parsing the search command.

Text ended before matchinjg quote was found for '. (The text was '/usr/bin/locate -i '/home/david/David's Files/**.log")

Problem is fixed if the folder is renamed to "Davids Files".

including the lsb informations to simply say what version of ubuntu you are running is a bit much informations, that seems to be a frequent behaviour recently though, is there any documentation which incitated to do that?
