Bug Description

Binary package hint: tracker-search-tool

Hi

I am on Ubuntu Hardy

When I do a research using the tracker-search-tool, for instance I search the word "music", it is said :
All files (8)
Documents (1)
Text (2)
Development (5)

When I click on "All files", there are only 2 files instead of 8, and it says "Result of the research : 1 - 7 of 7 items", so 7 instead of 2 or 8
When I click on "Documents", there is no file instead of 1, and it says "Result of the research : 0 elements"
When I click on "Text", there are 2 files, so that's okay with the number of files displayed, but these files are not the ones showed in the "All files"
When I click on "Development", there are only 2 files instead of 5 (files showed in the "All files"), and it says "Result of the research : 5 results". Why is the message different from the "All files" one ? It should not as there is only one page in both cases

Yes, this is true for me as well. The screenshot shows three different results given by Tracker in the same display:

1) It states that 9 results were found with the number next to the 'Folders' category
2) It states that 5 items were found above the display window: "Search results: 5 items"
3) Zero results are actually displayed

Here's another screenshot showing the mismatches, but with different numbers, in case it helps. This bug really limits the usefulness of Tracker as a desktop search solution.
