Public bug reported: When using the search function in Gnome Shell's activity overview, only local results seem to be returned. e.g. matches for appplications, files, contacts, and characters. I would normally expect to see results from at least online repositories/software centre, too. If there are no local matches, the search doesn't seem to time out (I've not waited more than a minute or two) and doesn't return anything - see attached screenshot.
