Bug ID: 360243
Summary: BAD ordering of search results
Product: Baloo
Version: 5.9.2
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: Engine
Assignee: m...@vhanda.in
Reporter: gougho...@gmail.com
CC: pinak.ah...@gmail.com
It's just embarrassing to use the Baloo search engine: Someone asked me to show
a doc. I proudly (Why? I'm the only one in my office using KDE.) pressed
Alt+Space and typed the full name of that doc. But fuck! Where is it? Seconds
later, I had to open dolphin to locate that doc. (I'm sure I typed the exact
file name.)
What Baloo gives is a bunch of files with no reasonable ordering. Ill-ordering
and full-text indexing makes Baloo useless to me: I have a lot of files having
keyword BLAH and one file with file name BLAH.pdf, then most likely I cannot
locate BLAH.pdf with Baloo quickly.
Disabling full-text indexing is not appropriate, of course. Then Baloo SHOULD
order it's search results.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Put a lot of files with similar topics in a folder indexed by Baloo.
2. Search one file by it's file name.
Actual Results:
The file I want is listed at a random position.
Expected Results:
The file I want is listed at the beginning.
