Hi,
IMO the new search webinterface is quiet useless now.
You have to do too many clicks just to find out which exactly versions of a package are available and what particular project it comes from. In fact it even seems to find much less packages than available on OBS.
It's not clear on first view how to browse directly into the source project page where the search hit belongs too. Also IMO confusiong that project names are shown somehow "human readble" instead of just using the well known (and copy/pasteble) strings like "openSUSE:11.4:Update".
Another thing, why you always hide the "show distribution" menu after submitting the search button? This is very annoying. Moreover I generally hate these kind of java script pages where the page back button never does what you would expect...
Generally +1
However, I have to say that I did not participate in the discussion on the prototype and therefore, somewhat, forfeited my right to complain after the fact.
Thus, rather than complain, I'd like to request that an "Expanded View" button get added to the page. The "Expanded View" would then present the results in a similar way the old search did, with quick and easy access to the OBS project.
Hi Robert, in my opinion a search for obs projects should be done in the obs webui search and not in the enduser software search. What exactly is your usecase? Listing all obs projects that provide a package 'xy'?
The use case is to get a display similar to the old search where I can get to the OBS project with one click and I can see the OBS project path like "openSUSE:11.4:Update". I think I am after the same information than Ruediger.
