It's no matter whether indexed or not-indexed > folders, activated or deactivated baloo-service. If you are searching "from" /usr/share/icons/breeze-dark you won't have indexed these folders. (That is, unless you've configured baloo to index more than your home directory). That means Dolphin goes off to try and find results "there and then", running a filenamesearch rather than a baloosearch. The gotscha is filenamesearch follows symlinks (baloo goes out its way to avoid doing this), I'd suggest exploring the breeze-dark folders and see if they contain collections of symlinks. I see that they do on my Fedora system... Probably a slight twist on "Case 3" in Bug 447119 This uses the example of a symlink under ~/Desktop pointing to ~/Documents but I think it could be the same issue. I'm assuming the link to the summary is OK, will flag as duplicate *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 447119 *** Created attachment 145152 [details]
duplicate search result in Dolphin
I think this error does not matter with symlinks. I am searching in folder /usr/share/breeze-dark for a file document-edit-decrypt-verify.svg. This file has no symlinks in the folder breeze-dark. Also is this folder not indexed. The result of the search can be seen in the attachment. /usr/share/icons/breeze-dark/actions/32/document-edit-decrypt-verify.svg is duplicated.
This problem didn't exist in the Dolphin version 21.08.3

I think this error does not matter with symlinks. You might need to look to see if you have symlinks under /usr/share/icons/breeze-dark/actions On my system, there's something of a web: [test@fedora35 actions]$ ls -l total 24 drwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 350 Dec 26 15:31 12 drwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 69718 Dec 26 15:31 16 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 2 Dec 4 17:55 16@2x -> 16 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 2 Dec 4 17:55 16@3x -> 16 drwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 77946 Dec 26 15:31 22 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 2 Dec 4 17:55 22@2x -> 22 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 2 Dec 4 17:55 22@3x -> 22 drwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 11204 Dec 26 15:31 32 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 2 Dec 4 17:55 32@2x -> 32 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 2 Dec 4 17:55 32@3x -> 32 drwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 414 Dec 26 15:31 48 drwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 154 Dec 26 15:31 64 drwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 11400 Dec 26 15:31 symbolic I was looking at Fedora 35. If I look at Neon, yes, it looks the same. Imagine that you are starting your search "in" /usr/share/icons/breeze-dark and searching down into each folder in turn, you could quite easily see many copies of document-edit-decrypt-verify.svg > ... This problem didn't exist in the Dolphin version 21.08.3 That's interesting. I've noticed the difference in behaviour (between baloo and "there and then" searches) for a while. The question is... where do I have a 21.08.03 so I can check |
