dash not showing apps and files after installing some new scopes

[Ștefănescu Cristian]

Ubuntu 13.10, daily, fresh install.
Installed everything that I need, decided to add some new scopes for unity:

"sudo apt-get install unity-scope-{calculator,gdocs,gdrive,github,manpages,soundcloud}"

After login/logout restart, all I can see in dash is "Sorry, your search returned no results".

Started Unity from a terminal, this is what I get when I open dash:

"WARN 2013-10-17 10:49:57 unity.dash.scopeproxy ScopeProxy.cpp:373 Proxy scope not connected for home.scope

Opening an app from "Run" works.

Oh, apparently, only "search social messages" works.

Same here, however, searching social networks is not working either.

I having the same issue with Unity lens. "Searh Social Messages" appears but not configured.

Means that you don't have the unity-scope-home package, you need to install it.
