Bug Description
* Impact
The text search feature, which is depending on tracker, is not working even when the service is installed
* Test case
- install tracker and restart your session
- echo 'Nautilus is great' > ~/txt
- open nautilus and type 'great' in the search entry
-> the file should be listed
* Regression potential
That's changing the search provider logic, make sure that searching for file without tracker still works (that only look at filenames) and there is no extra logging/cpu usage
---------------
Background: I have installed Tracker. It has finished indexing. I can also use Tracker's command line interface to search by content.
1.
Description: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
Release: 18.04
2.
nautilus:
Installed: 1:3.26.3-0ubuntu4
Candidate: 1:3.26.3-0ubuntu4
Version table:
*** 1:3.26.3-0ubuntu4 500
500 http://
100 /var/lib/
3. I expect to be able to search files by content from Nautilus, because this feature worked in 17.10.
4. I get no results from full text search unless the search matches file names.
