[Bug 1472607] [NEW] gsettings not sticking for Unity dash search

 

Public bug reported:

I have recently noticed that when going to "System Settings > Security &
Privacy > Search", and disabling the online search result option:

Dash_online_search_settings_off.png (attached)

That after a restart, the option has reset back to its default state:

Dash_online_search_settings_on.png (attached)

So the only workaround that I have found is to put:

/bin/bash -c "gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Lenses remote-content-
search 'none'"

In the startup applications list. But it would be good if the gsetting
could just stick, and as this appears to be a bug with the setting not
sticking, I am filing this bug report.

There is also some talk of this issue here:
