I agree with you.
I have configured beagle to also include indexes from
beagle-crawl-system and, although the command-line interface to Beagle
works fine, the Search GUI application does not find anything.
For example:
$ beagle-query beagle
file:///usr/share/applications/gnome-beagle-search.desktop
file:///usr/share/applications/gnome-beagle-settings.desktop
file:///usr/share/doc/HTML/index.html
file:///usr/share/doc/fedora-release-4.92/RELEASE-NOTES-en.html
file:///usr/share/doc/HTML/RELEASE-NOTES-en.html
However, searching for "beagle" using the GUI only returns results for
"Search" and "Search & Indexing" elements.
Why?
I asked the beagle developers, and they said the search GUI explicitly
removes the documentation indexes from the search, because otherwise
hits from there overwhelms your own hits. However, search in the help
browser (yelp) searches the documentation.
