Hello,

I started to use Tracker intensively as a replacement for Recoll. It is nice 
and better integrated to Gnome, but the results are still less complete.


1) For some reason, some files are correctly indexed but not shown in the 
result.

See my screenshot enclosed :

- the settings show paths that are indexed.
- I search a term, with a limit of 100 files,
- The expected file (and around ten others) does not show in the results
- Checking the indexation manually on this file shows that the indexation 
worked.

What is going on ? Shall I open a bug report or am I missing something ?


2) I have another question : tracker-needle works but is quite dated. Is there 
a plan for a better GUI ?

The integration in Nautilus is suprisingly not good, and it is also 
disappointed to see that it is not used by gnome-shell in the activity view.

I am aware of a gnome-shell extension, but it does not work on recent releases 
and the code looks a bit as a hack.

Why not using Tracker as a search provider by default for file contents ?

Thank you for your answers,

Best regards,
Jean-Christophe
