[SOLVED] Gnome Shell doesn't search through recently used items

A while back I ran chattir +i on ~/.local/share/recently-used.xbel because of a bug that gnome shell had where it would crash while searching for recently used items. Since I've now updated to 3.4.1, I figured the bug might have been fixed, so I ran chattr -i to allow writing to the file again. The file has since filled up with my recently used items, but they don't seem to appear in the gnome shell search.

Sorry if this is a bit brief, but I'm not sure what other information to give on this problem.

I believe this was removed with 3.4.

Here is the bug report: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=670150
And here is the gnome-shell commit: http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-shell … 8c68782d54

That's a shame.. it was quite useful.

Oh well, I'll mark solved since there is no fix.
