GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 789006
SearchProvider interface always returns name "Untitled Document" and blank icon
Last modified: 2018-02-16 20:01:54 UTC
Created attachment 361605 [details] search results from activities overview Overview: Searching from Gnome Shell activities overview shows all results from Gnome Documents with name "Untitled Document" and blank icon (see attached screenshot for example). If the same search is done however from Gnome Documents itself, the document names and preview icons are displayed correctly. The number of search results match between the two. Clicking on any "Untitled Document" search result does open Gnome Documents with a document. When there is only one search result, it opens the expected document. Steps to Reproduce: Do a search from Gnome Shell activities overview for a string that should (partially) match the name of a document available in Gnome Documents. Actual Results: The search results from Gnome Documents all show with name "Untitled Document" and blank icon. Expected Results: The search results from Gnome Documents should show the actual name and preview icon of the documents. Build Date & Hardware: OS = Arch Linux [64-bit] Version = 3.26.1 Build date = Tue 03 Oct 2017 20:05:04 CEST Additional Builds and Platforms: OS = Fedora Workstation 27 Beta [64-bit] Version = 3.26.0
Searching from the command line gives the same "Untitled Document" results. I used this command to get search results (replace "something" with name to search for): dbus-send --session --dest=org.gnome.Documents --print-reply /org/gnome/Documents/SearchProvider org.gnome.Shell.SearchProvider2.GetInitialResultSet array:string:"something" And this command to get the details of a search result (replace "something" with a urn:uuid:string from above search results): dbus-send --session --dest=org.gnome.Documents --print-reply /org/gnome/Documents/SearchProvider org.gnome.Shell.SearchProvider2.GetResultMetas array:string:"something"
This issue still exists in the release version of Fedora 27 + Gnome 3.26, and did not happen in Gnome 3.24. Glad to see that it's been reported already.
I can confirm this issue is still present in the latest GNOME on Arch Linux.
The gnome-documents 3.26.2 release fixed this bug. Hooray!
Thanks for testing! *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 791613 ***
