I do not agree that this is a Beagle bug because (by default) beagled runs as your own user and indexes only your home directory. Running the indexer as root on the entire file system seems to be a Very Bad Idea from a security standpoint.
If the intended behaviour for most people is to search the entier filesystem nautilus should be changed to not use beagled even if running, but I think most users running beagled understand and are happy with this. If no maintainer intends to make a change from the Nautilus side, please close this bug. -- Can't get to gnome-search-tool once beagle is installed https://launchpad.net/bugs/41030 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
