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. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1795028 Title: Nautilus crashes during search in is_recursive_search (search-engine) Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in nautilus source package in Bionic: In Progress Bug description: Impact ------ Nautilus crashes when searching remote locations Test Case --------- 1.
