Bug ID: 445825 Summary: Baloo indexer gives more priority to content rather than file name Product: frameworks-baloo Version: 5.88.0 Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: baloo-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: saif1...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 143777 --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=143777&action=edit Strange results SUMMARY As you can see in the picture, the results from Baloo are completely irrelevant to a first impression. It seems it is currently giving priority to weight based on the file contents rather than on the file name. For a further discussion and context, this reddit post can help: https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/qwxmje/how_can_i_do_so_kde_file_search_brings_the/ in which t his Bug originated STEPS TO REPRODUCE Te reproduce it is tricky, as we would need specific files that contain keywords that we search for, in this case, it will happen than when searching for these keywords, the files containing them appear first, and the files that actually have these keywords on the file name, never show up, which is the assumed default. Check the image. OBSERVED RESULT In the picture, you can see the keyword being search brings very strange results Of course disabling "Content Index" solves it, but it is not an answer or a solution. Content Index is important but should not be first, IMHO. Also, disabling Content Index in KDE does not work well. User needs to disable, purge, logout and re-enable baloo for the changes to take effect. But this would be a separate issue. EXPECTED RESULT The first results should always be files whose filename contain the searched keyword SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: 5.23.3 KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.88.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION X11, EndeavourOS -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
