so, my mom complains about the search in nautilus not finding things
<hexa->
I'm not a gnome user, so I'm not that well versed in the componentes involved
<hexa->
basically there is a nested directory structre /foo/bar and a file /foo/bar/baz.tada
<hexa->
and when searching (F3) in /foo/ it won't find it, but it will when in /foo/bar
<hexa->
mind you, the latter is probably just a filter, while the former is actual search
<hexa->
this happens on an nfs mount
<hexa->
ok, so the nfs mount is not indexed and I can't find any gui config or config schema for tracker
<worldofpeace>
hmm, I think maybe it could be an upstream bug?
<worldofpeace>
though, there has been and I think is some issues with these mounts reported on nixos, maybe not this exact one
<worldofpeace>
yeah I don't think I see anything in our tracker. for what it's worth, if you can find a way to reproduce it and make a bug report to nautilus, this would be the way to go.
<hexa->
worldofpeace: applied to 20.09, the dialog is now selectable
<hexa->
the locations on the nfs share were already part of the bookmarks
<hexa->
sadly they're still not part of the search database
<worldofpeace>
hexa-: yeah, in that case I'm lost on the issue. u said it would be able to search in /foo/bar, so it could even be how nautilus tries to index (or not) remote filesystems. I'm not that familiar with the nautilus codebase.

thx for looking into this and getting us this far!
