pretty sure you didn't search in the right directory. It cannot find the rc.conf if you search in your home directory. Just click on File System from the left pane and then search for rc.conf

investigating more, nautilus on Fedora and Ubuntu are not built with tracker support so they use they old find/grep.

if you indeed want to use tracker, configure it to index your whole file system instead of only the XDG personal directories and nonrecursively $HOME
