Description Christian Stadelmann 2015-03-06 15:37:07 UTC 
I run gnome-shell 3.14 on Fedora with gnome-calculator installed. Every time I use gnome-shell to search for something, I get these error messages:

org.gnome.Calculator.SearchProvider[1548]: Error: ErrorCode.UNKNOWN_VARIABLE

It is just normal that the calculator cannot parse every user input. This is no error and thus does not need to get logged.
Comment 1 Christian Stadelmann 2015-05-04 17:18:15 UTC 
Still present in 3.16.

search-provider: discard stdout/stderr

I can't reproduce this problem when I search for something not an equation and then check journalctl. Here's a speculative patch; please let me know if it fixes this for you. Thanks!
Comment 3 Christian Stadelmann 2015-05-13 20:02:48 UTC 
Thank you very much, your patch fixes this problem for me.

Besides: Do you want to re-enable output if some debugging variable is provided?
Comment 4 Michael Catanzaro 2015-05-13 20:31:36 UTC 
Nope. It's like you say: it is just normal that the calculator cannot parse every user input.
