Select Items Matching functionality buggy in list view

[Vadim Peretokin]

Since upgrading from 13.10 to 14.04, the 'Select Items Matching' functionality is broken - it only selects the first file matching the pattern, instead of all.

Thank you for your bug report. I can't confirm that, could you describe what you are doing/typing exactly and what is the content of the directory you are using?

[Vadim Peretokin (vperetokin)]

Hi,

Thanks for taking a look. Attached is a small demonstration video of the
problem.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

Thanks, the video is useful showing you use the list mode. Does it happen if you use the icons view?

[Vadim Peretokin (vperetokin)]

It works fine in icons view. I always use list view however because I need
to refer to the metadata quite often in my workflow.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.

[Vadim Peretokin (vperetokin)]

As far as I see, the 'Add Bug URLs:' is not available there. It is
described in the instructions you linked to use it.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

Thanks

Still actual for Nautilus 3.18.2 in Xenial, added tags for affected Ubuntu versions.
