Feature changed by: akash vishwakarma (vish_99) Feature #314908, revision 7 Title: enhance search @ http://software.opensuse.org openSUSE.org: New Priority Requester: Mandatory Requested by: NoName StillNoName (uhelp) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Enhance the search so that each and every packet can be found even if the proper name is not know or packages are searched by names other - distris are using. Even parts or misspelling should give a reasonable + distros are using. Even parts or misspelling should give a reasonable list of potential hits. + Use Case: + While installing/packaging a package package, which was meant for other + distros, the package dependencies shown follow respective naming + conventions of their distro. It's very hard to figure out which package + to install. + The given feature would help to tell exact package even if we search a + debian/fedora package. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: The search at http://software.opensuse.org gives poor results, if one does not know the exact packet name. This would give a much better user experience to everybody and make the website more valuable, It will impact the reputation of openSUSE over all. I have often heard that openSUSE does not have package x or y. People just don't find the already existing packages. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/314908
