Search current folder ignores generic * outside home

[corrado venturini]

Open a directory in a partition outside home, search current folder, search ignores generic character *
example: search for 'LG' I see all files starting with 'LG'
search for 'LG*' I see NO MATCHES.
Same search in a home subdirectory works fine.

Same problem in Ubuntu 24.10 with nautilus: Installed: 1:46.2-0ubuntu1

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Also *.png or *.pdf does not work

Thank you, indeed that's an issue. Would you perhaps also report it upstream on gitlab?

Hello
The search works very well in a partition formatted in NTFS.
It does not work for a partition formatted in EXT4 whether there is the x-gvfs-show option or not.

(ubuntu 22.04)

inside NTFS => https://zupimages.net/up/24/25/2ghe.png
inside EXT4
       Without * => https://zupimages.net/viewer.php?id=24/25/fit4.png
       With * => https://zupimages.net/viewer.php?id=24/25/78rz.png
