Thanks to the people fixing this bug, in the first place. However, I'm sorry to put it in this way but Blaster pointed out what is the real bug which caused this one. It is the strange policy in the Nautilus development. This might be fixed by changing the policy or changing the file manager in Ubuntu. Because otherwise, we must ask what will be next? Removal of Home (/home/user) from the side bar and leaving there only (My) Documents, (My) Music and (My) Pictures as it is on Mac OS and some (all?) MS Windows? Removal of possibility to show hidden (.*) files or removal of list view because everyone wants big thumbnail anyway, right? ...
I'm sorry to see developers spending their time reimplementing, debugging and fixing features which already had working implementations and were removed just few months before. I'm concerned that this state is not sustainable. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1164016 Title: restore type-ahead find Status in Nautilus: New Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “ubuntu-settings” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: GNOME removed type-ahead find in Nautilus 3.6, not without controversy: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/nautilus- list/2012-August/msg00002.html Now when you type in a Nautilus window, Nautilus immediately performs a search in the current directory and all its subdirectories. I personally find this annoying. If I want to search, I'll click the search icon. Often I'm looking at a long directory listing and simply want to jump to a certain point in it, and type-ahead find works great for that. Would Ubuntu consider patching type-ahead find back in?
