Gnome Maps search function

I installed gnome maps (apt install gnome-maps) on Xubuntu 16.04. It is a great tool and running fine.
The only problem is that I do not understand how to use the search function. When I enter a place in the search bar, I get a suggestion list with the correct city and country etc, but whatever I select or type nothing happens.
I would expect when I enter Paris,France and select it from the offered List, to tool centers Paris and put a cursor on it. I can not figure out how to do that. What am I missing?

Try the flatpak version of gnome-maps: https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.gnome.Maps
It has worked for me on Ubuntu 18.04 x64: favorites are back and search function works as expected.
1. Install Flatpak
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:alexlarsson/flatpak
sudo apt update
sudo apt install flatpak
2. Install the Software Flatpak plugin
sudo apt install gnome-software-plugin-flatpak
3. Add the Flathub repository
sudo flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
4. Restart (if necessary)
5. Install Gnome-Maps via Gnome-Software or via the command line
sudo flatpak install flathub org.gnome.Maps
6. Run the app
flatpak run org.gnome.Maps
