Description Vadim Rutkovsky 2012-02-07 06:05:38 UTC 
Original report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-utils/+bug/611928

gnome-system-log version 3.2.1

The search functionality ignores the cursor in regards of starting point.

Explanation and how to reproduce:
1. I search for a term which appears several time in the log file
2. Lets assume I reach a section where the term appears so often that I want to skip the section and point the cursor below the section to continue my search there.
3. I press the search button again but the search continues at the position where it stopped before (here: at the beginning of the section) and ignores my cursor.

Instead the search should continue at the position where I pointed the cursor to.

gnome-system-log is not under active development anymore and had its last code changes more than four years ago. Its codebase has been archived at https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/gnome-system-log/

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect
reality. Please feel free to reopen this ticket (or rather transfer the project
to GNOME Gitlab, as GNOME Bugzilla is being shut down) if anyone takes the
responsibility for active development again.
