I can confirm this for openSUSE 11.2 (kipi-plugins 0.6, digikam 0.10.0) and Ubuntu/Kubuntu (kipi-plugins 1.0.0, digikam 1.0.0).
Comment 2 Michael G. Hansen 2010-01-11 20:27:56 UTC
I have updated the script on the server to Google Maps API V3 because of bug #209365 (and possibly others). However, Google Maps API V3 does not yet support this search box (or I just did not figure out how to display it). The search box is still available in the Track List Editor, which you can also use to edit the coordinates. Updating to V3 was necessary as we were having problems with the old version of the interface. I will try to get the search box back as soon as possible.

A patch has been added to bug #222067 to choose the Google Maps API version. Please test it, if you like ;-)

SVN commit 1080191 by mghansen:

Make it possible to choose between the V2 and V3 Google Maps API and between topocoding, geonames and no altitude lookup service. For old versions of the plugin, revert to V2 API to make the search field available. Left to do: Do the same for the track list editor.

Comment 8 Milan Knížek 2010-05-30 20:53:52 UTC
Do I understand correctly that the originally reported bug is solved by re-enabling V2 of Google Maps API in the user interface?

Like some others, V2 does not work for me (no map is displayed) and hence I still miss the address searching feature.

I googled quickly for V3 API and Geocoding and found this:
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/services.html#Geocoding

So it seems that now it should be possible to search by address in V2 again.
Comment 9 Michael G. Hansen 2010-05-30 21:16:00 UTC
Geocoding is available in V3, but somebody has to make a UI for it (Geocoding!=Searchbar). We are working on the GPSSync2 plugin where we plan to include this. To monitor the progress, look for example at this page:

Comment 10 Milan Knížek 2010-05-30 21:26:51 UTC
I was aware about GSOC 2010 for reverse geocoding, however, I did not know it would include also simple geocoding.
Thanks for info, I will follow the progress.
Comment 11 Michael G. Hansen 2010-05-30 21:38:13 UTC
It's going to be more of a by-product.
