There's clearly a trade-off between correctness and efficiency here. Unless nautilus pokes tracker to wake up and do a shallow (no previews, etc.) index/force-refresh the searched-for directory unthrottled right away? Then that would be the equivalent of a "classic" search, except that the gained data would be available in the tracker DB for the next time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1666676 Title: Enable tracker by default for Unity too To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1666676/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
