I have a fresh install of Arch and the only groups installed beyond core are xorg, gnome, and gnome-extra.
I notice that in nautilus when I search for a file nothing is returned. In fall back mode with the "search files" option in "Places" the same search does produce an output.
Anyone else having this issue?

I have the same problem, Nautilus 3.2.1

nautilus search works in two way:
1) if tracker is available it relies on it and returns the results available in the index.
2) fallback to classic find when tracker is not available.
i believe you guys have 1) and index search is empty. run /usr/bin/tracker-preferences to set what folders to index or remove tracker

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

I've completely removed gnome-documents with tracker since it still wouldn't search even after adding folders to index.
Now it uses the classic method and it works.

how do you remove gnone-documents with tracker ?

pacman -Rns gnome-documents
pacman -Rns tracker

is this IMO surprising behavior (search for files in nautilus using tracker) documented somewhere?
