I do not get search results for files in the Gnome Shell overview except for files that are placed in my Home folder. Currently, I am using Ubuntu Gnome 13.04 with GS 3.8 from the Gnome3 PPA, but have not added the Gnome3 Staging PPA yet (seems to be risky).
In the tracker GUI configuration my favourites (Downloads, Documents, et cetera) are marked as recursive. Gnome Documents also indexes and displays files in subfolders properly. I've checked dconf as well and everything seems to be fine:
['&DESKTOP', '&PICTURES', '&DOCUMENTS', '&DOWNLOAD', '&MUSIC', '&VIDEOS']
Only the Home folder is marked as index-single-directories
:
['$HOME']
Could there be a problem caused by my language settings? I've read about issues concerning tracker in regard to language settings, so I already cleared my tracker DB and restarted scanning, but still no results. Whenever I move a file to my Home folder, it will be displayed instantly. What can I do about that?
