Title:
  Unity dash searches forever, no search results

Status in Unity:
  Triaged
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Since upgrading from 13.04 to 13.10 (beta) I can no longer launch
  applications by searching them in the dash (topmost entry in the
  launcher bar). Whatever I enter as a search term, the spinning circle
  rotates, rotates, without ever showing any results. No message about
  "nothing found", either. Launching applications from the command line
  or from the launcher bar works just fine.

  To make sure we talk about the same I made a screenshot, please find
  it attached.

  I tried to remove everything in $HOME/.cache, no change.

  Then I ran unity in a terminal:

  $ unity

  ^C

  Note: "Es wurde keine gültige Schlüsselwertedatei in den Suchordnern
  gefunden" means about "no valid key file found in the search folders"
