Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evince

Evince's search toolbar works fine when opened for the first time.
However, if the toolbar is closed with some text in it, when it's opened
again the previously entered text appears but the search does not work.

Steps to reproduce:

1) Open a PDF document in Evince
2) Press Ctrl+F to open the search toolbar
3) Write a word known to be in the document
4) Search results appear next to the search buttons; previous and next buttons 
work as expected; pressing Intro moves to the next result
5) Press Esc to close the search toolbar
6) Press Ctrl+F to open the search toolbar again; the word entered in step 3 
can be seen in the search field

Expected result:

7) Search results appear next to the search buttons; previous and next
buttons work as expected; pressing Intro moves to the next result

Actual result:

7) Search results do not appear next to the search buttons; previous and next 
buttons do not work; pressing Intro does nothing
8) Typing again in the search field restarts the search
