[Bug 930505] New: every package available in standard or optional repos is not discoverable via https://software.opensuse.org/search
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=930505 Bug ID: 930505 Summary: every package available in standard or optional repos is not discoverable via https://software.opensuse.org/search Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE.org Version: unspecified Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Infrastructure Assignee: mrueckert@suse.com Reporter: mrmazda@earthlink.net QA Contact: lrupp@suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- mc is the package name and binary executable for the best available file manager in openSUSE repos. Latest Midnight Commander (mc) not discoverable via https://software.opensuse.org/search . Until recently, current mc for 13.1 could be found on http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Base:/System/openSUSE_13.2/ but this repo has been retired. Searching https://software.opensuse.org/search for search term commander produces no hits for Midnight Commander or mc. Search term mc is not acceptable to https://software.opensuse.org/search, as it rejects two character search strings, first by announcement, then when proceeding anyway, searching for mc only as a substring, listing many packages containing string mc but not mc itself. I tried searching for latest mc on https://build.opensuse.org/search but as I am not a builder I found it too difficult to use to locate latest (mc-4.8.14) even with help from irc://freenode/opensuse-factory. Something needs to be done so that every package that exists in standard or BS repos can be discovered via https://software.opensuse.org/search without the degree of difficulty searching for Midnight Commander presents. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I think mc would be much better suited for the utilities project.

Most likely Base:System was chosen as that is the pattern it is in. I'm not opposed to switching the devel repo, but this may not fix the real bug which is why I cannot be discovered in the search. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Huh? I am not sure what you are doing, but plenty of mc packages for many releases, including Tumbleweed, are returned. Case in point: https://software.opensuse.org/package/mc Closing this issue as you so not seem to be using the search correctly.

This is not how Tumbleweed works, sorry. If you are on Tumbleweed, an earlier version will simply not be offered. If not already done so, please report a bug against the mc package for a fix to be applied. If you have a post 4.8.18 git commit, even better. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

That is not the URI returned from using the search box on https://software.opensuse.org/search
Closing this issue as you so not seem to be using the search correctly.
How does one incorrectly use a search box in a web page? I type mc, click the search button, and 31 of 31 total packages returned are not mc. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
