Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It sounds like some part of the system has crashed. To help us find the cause of the crash please follow these steps:
1. Look in /var/crash for crash files and if found run: ubuntu-bug YOURFILE.crash Then tell us the ID of the newly-created bug. 2. If step 1 failed then look at https://errors.ubuntu.com/user/ID where ID is the content of file /var/lib/whoopsie/whoopsie-id on the machine. Do you find any links to recent problems on that page? If so then please send the links to us. 3. If step 2 also failed then apply the workaround from bug 994921, reboot, reproduce the crash, and retry step 1. Please take care to avoid attaching .crash files to bugs as we are unable to process them as file attachments. It would also be a security risk for yourself. ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- 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/1978547 Title: nautilus crash on search Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (updated from 21.10) nautilus 1.42.1.1-0ubuntu 15.15.0-37-generic flatpak installed Type=x11 Expected to happen: 1. open nautilus 2. type anything in search box in any folder (remote or not, empty or not) 3. nautilus do the search. What happens: 1. open nautilus 2. type anything in search box in any folder (remote or not, empty or not) 3. nautilus crashes and prompt to end the process What I've tested: 1. sudo apt install --reinstall nautilus 2. rm ~/.config/nautilus none worked Strange result: sometimes (same search, same folder) it doesn't crash. After waiting about 1min (!) doing nothing, the search results appear. After this happy long time, if I try other searches without closing the window, they work as expected. I would have posted this a week earlier, but then the strange result first came out. So I thought that I could figure it out, but I couldn't. Before that I didn't realize how important the search box was. Now I have installed nemo as I was waiting nautilus to be fixed. If I could test anything that it could help, I would love to help!
