** Description changed:
Since upgrading from 13.04 to 13.10 (beta) I can no longer launch
applications by searching them in the dash (topmost entry in the
launcher bar). Whatever I enter as a search term, the spinning circle
rotates, rotates, without ever showing any results. No message about
"nothing found", either. Launching applications from the command line or
from the launcher bar works just fine.
To make sure we talk about the same I made a screenshot, please find it
attached.
I tried to remove everything in $HOME/.cache, no change.
Then I ran unity in a terminal:

^C
Note: "Es wurde keine gültige Schlüsselwertedatei in den Suchordnern

- That's it, so far, I'll happily run other debug attempts.
