I agree this kind of feature is quite essential for a desktop search engine.
If tracker can't do it, couldn't deskbar-applet work around it? There is locate, which has a quite capable filename search engine. Wouldn't it be possible to write a simple deskbar plugin that queries "locate -i ~/'*$SEARCHTERM*'" as you type? Deskbar has the advantage of taking multiple sources into account, and if tracker simply isn't designed for finding files by name, then use the tools that are. -- Search does not find anything if files name is partly written https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202429 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is the registrant for deskbar-applet. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
