Description Tshepang Lekhonkhobe 2010-05-27 13:44:53 UTC 
The only processing done on the terms before inserting them into history:
* stripping leading trailing whitespace
* normalization

(see https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619504#c4 for reference)

better fix

for search & history, don't clean-up search terms 

* TST was trying to be smart by cleaning-up  search terms
  (removing non-alphanumeric characters) before using them to
  query as well as before storing them in history.
* This change allows TST to send the search terms as-is to
  tracker-store, but as for history, it first strips both leading 
  and trailing whitespace, while also applying normalization.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
However, you are using a version that is too old and not supported anymore. GNOME developers are no longer working on that version, so unfortunately there will not be any bug fixes for the version that you use.

By upgrading to a newer version of GNOME you could receive bug fixes and new functionality. You may need to upgrade your Linux distribution to obtain a newer version of GNOME.
Please feel free to reopen this bug if the problem still occurs with a newer version of GNOME.
