Issue 323: Recoll Unity Lens does not work with Ubuntu 16.04

I’ve just installed unity-scope-recoll from the PPA ppa:recoll-backports/recoll-1.15-on and the lens does not show at all in the Unity dash (I’ve also rebooted).

Hi,

Last time I tried, this worked. Maybe something broke, but I have to ask: did you run the recoll indexer and does the recoll GUI work ?

I’m sorry, my fault: it actually works! I just thought there would be another section in the bottom part of the Dash. Instead, I just have to type something and I can filter by selecting "Recoll" in "Filter Results"- >"Sources".

it works, sorry.

No problem ! I think that you can probably get the recoll results directly by starting the query string with recoll:

There probably should be a few more usage notes, but I’m not too sure where to put them.
