Strange.   I tried searching for something generic from the command line with
baloosearch:

"baloosearch document"

and no results were returned.   I went to the search settings and played around
with the "file search" option.   I enabled/disabled "file search", as well as
pressed the "Defaults" option.   At this point the command line "baloosearch"
worked, as well as searching from Dolphin.   

I tried enabling/disabling file search again and this resulted in a baloo
crash.   Now when I try baloosearch from the termina, I get the error message: 
"baloosearch(4728): Xapian Database does not exist at 
"/home/amorris/.local/share/baloo/file/" "

Nevertheless, searching within Dolphin still works, which makes me happy.
