No error? Just no output?

Well no wonder desktop search doesn´t work on your system as packages that are
required for it are missing. On my system:
martin@merkaba:~> LANG=C balooctl status
Baloo File Indexer is running
Indexer state: Idle
Indexed 192927 / 192927 files
Current size of index is 1.32 GiB
martin@merkaba:~> dpkg -l | grep baloo | cut -c1-72
ii baloo-dev 4:4.14.2-2
ii baloo-kf5 5.23.0-1
ii libbaloocore4 4:4.14.2-2
ii libbaloofiles4 4:4.14.2-2
ii libbaloopim4 4:4.14.2-2
ii libbalooqueryparser4 4:4.14.2-2
ii libbalooxapian4 4:4.14.2-2
ii libkf5baloo5 5.23.0-1
ii libkf5balooengine5 5.23.0-1
ii libkf5baloowidgets-bin 16.04.0-1
ii libkf5baloowidgets5:amd64 16.04.0-1
I think I´d do
apt install baloo-kf5
maybe you also need to install libkf5baloowidgets5 separately.

Well for me krunner crashed repeatedly as the database was broken with mdb.c
in the backtrace. But on your system baloo does not seem to be installed,
which is a user support issue, so please follow up on debian-kde mailinglist
to keep this bug report to the real issue of the original reporter, that was
with krunner.
Its important to stay focussed on the original topic of a bug report and open
new bug reports for other issues. The original bug sounds more general than
just desktop search not working.
Thank you,
