Hey there ...

Since yesterday I used calibre with Windows - there it was possible to edit the metadata of many files at the same time, f.e. to edit all authors at once. I didn't have to enter any seatch-field there but just marked the books I wanted to edit using the CTRL-key in the overview.
Now I'm trying the same using Calibre with Linux and get the following error-message.

Code:

calibre, version 1.25.0
FEHLER: Suchen/ersetzen ungültig: Suchmuster ungültig: You must specify a search expression in the "Search for" field

I think the correct translation of the first words is
"ERROR: Search/replace invalid"

What's wrong there?
