It is my experience that Ubuntu Search also crashes when searching from the home directory.

- Most likely to occur with short searches (three to four letters)
- More likely to happen early in the session than after a few restarts of the session.

Core functionality of a modern file browser that stripped type-ahead search away to make place for recursive search. More dan "Medium" importance according to me.

Nautilus 3.26.4 is where I am still experiencing the issue.

Hello errors.ubuntu.com, or anyone else affected,

Accepted nautilus into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/1:3.26.4-0~ubuntu18.04.2 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Just installed nautilus from bionic-propose, did a bit of testing (including receipt from "Bug Description"), and no problems so far.

[Marco Trevisan (Treviño) (3v1n0)]

Confirming that this is when running nautilus 1:3.26.4-0~ubuntu18.04.2 (apt-cache policy nautilus will tell you) right?
