Bug Description
Click on Preferences, then click on Searching (under Interface), then click on the button Clear search _histories. It used to clear all the search histories, which was a great way of cleaning up the history list and starting again, cleanly.
Now it just duplicates the clearing of the current filter (or 'search') that shows a filtered view of the books in the database.
I'm using the Linux version of 5.34. This change in functionality occurred several versions ago. I had waited patiently hoping for it to be restored, but it has not. (I am running Linux Mint 20.2.)
Is it possible to restore the previous, useful behaviour, please?
Thank you!

It still works, you just have to restart calibre for the history to be
actually cleared, this will be fixed in the next release.
