Dear All,
I installed Gnome Shell from the repositories. In general, it seems to work quite well, but I have a problem with searching Contacts in the activities window.
I have some Google Contacts that I added to the Gnome Documents app using the Online accounts functionality. If I go in the activities window and start typing the name of the contact, sometimes the contact appears in the search results, sometime it does not, and the Contacts tab is empty.
I know there is a bug report that is related to gnome-contacts-search-provider crashing, but this happens even when the provider does not crash.
It is very easy to reproduce. Add some contacts, open activities and start typing, then look at the results.
Is anyone else noticing this beahvior, and has anyone an idea for a workaround?
