Bug 418513

SUMMARY

I can't disable File Search from System Settings.

My balooctlrc looks like

[General]
dbVersion=2
exclude filters=*~,*.part,*.o,*.la,*.lo,*.loT,*.moc,moc_*.cpp,qrc_*.cpp,ui_*.h,cmake_install.cmake,CMakeCache.txt,CTestTestfile.cmake,libtool,config.status,confdefs.h,autom4te,conftest,confstat,Makefile.am,*.gcode,*.csproj,*.m4,*.rej,*.gmo,*.pc,*.omf,*.aux,*.tmp,*.po,*.vm*,*.nvram,*.rcore,*.swap,lzo,litmain.sh,*.orig,.histfile.*,.xsession-errors*,*.map,*.so,*.a,*.db,*.qrc,*.ini,*.init,*.img,*.vdi,*.vbox*,vbox.log,*.qcow2,*.vmdk,*.vhd,*.vhdx,*.sql,*.sql.gz,*.class,*.pyc,*.pyo,*.elc,*.qmlc,*.jsc,*.fastq,*.fq,*.gb,*.fasta,*.fna,*.gbff,*.faa,po,CVS,.svn,.git,_darcs,.bzr,.hg,CMakeFiles,CMakeTmp,CMakeTmpQmake,.moc,.obj,.pch,.uic,.npm,.yarn,.yarn-cache,__pycache__,node_modules,node_packages,nbproject,core-dumps,lost+found
exclude filters version=5
first run=true


STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Start System Settings -> Search -> File Search

I see that the [Enable File Search] and [Also Index File Content] check boxes are both ticked.


2.

Untick the [Enable File Search] and [Also Index File Content] check boxes

 
3.
Press the Apply button

4.
Close the System Settings dialog
 

OBSERVED RESULT

The baloofilerc is unchanged

EXPECTED RESULT


I'm expecting to see the following two lines added to the beginning of baloofilrc


[Basic Settings]
Indexing-Enabled=false
