SUMMARY

I've been annoyed by a bug since a very long time. I've finally been able to
find the specific case where the search from here is not working!

I have an NTFS hard drive that I mount on /mnt/Data. I also have a symlink
/mnt/Data -> /home/nathan/Data. I've defined some places in dolphin: Videos
->/home/nathan/Data/Videos, Music->/home/nathan/Data/Music. 
When baloo is enabled, when accessing those places, the search from here is not
working. But if I access those folders by clicking on the external drive then
going to those folders, the search from here works even with baloo enabled. I
had to edit the places: Videos -> /mnt/Data/Videos and now the search from here
is working with baloo enabled.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a symlink to a folder
2. Go inside the symlink with dolphin
2. Disable baloo
3. Search from here -> OK
4. Enable baloo
5. Search from here -> KO
