Full text search in Nautilus (3.26.1 in Ubuntu 18.04) does not work for me.
I installed tracker and it works correctly.
When I type the "tracker search < something >" in a terminal window it
finds every files which contains "< something >".
What is wrong?
Should I install additional packages?
Should I set something in dconf
(or elsewhere)?

Do you text from Home or somewhere else?

Recursive search is set for $Home. Originally $Home was in "index-single-directories" indconf
, but I deleted it from there, deleted everything from "index-recursive-directories" and put there $Home.

So it still searches correctly but it doesn't search anything that contains the word that is being searched?

For example, if i searchedDownloads
it comes up withDownloads
but not with anything likeTest Download.txt
?

It searches only the filenames, and it finds also theTest Download.txt
, but it doesn't find the words inside the fileTest Download.txt
