[Bug 39360] Beagle search-backend in Yelp is broken/unusable

[bhaagensen]

Public bug reported:

Affects: yelp (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
I think that the current setup for searching in yelp is useless for
three reasons:

1. There seems to be no way of reverting to the default search backend.
Thus one is bound to use the beagle backend.

2. Currently the beagle crawl-system which should run through cron and
index the documentation is broken. I.e. the necessary files are
misplaced and not set up properly. Thus the documentation is not indexed
at all.

3. Even if 2. is corrected (which I'm not entirely sure how one can do
consistently), the type of search results in yelp are not very
userfriendly to say the least. I.e. only uri's seems to be displayed as
search results.

So unless major improvements are done with regards to these matters I
think that yelp search should not be done by beagle. I do like beagle
though, so idealy for me would be defaulting to yelps search engine with
an option (gconf) to use the beagle backend.
