Yes, it does. What it does not search is packman.
Also webpin tracks individual files, so you can find what package provides any file.
The problem with http://software.opensuse.org/search is that I have to fumble around in a browser switch windows, etc.. to do a rudimentary search that in the past was a simply
$ wp pkgterm
(yes, I even alias things as short as 'webpin', 'zypper' {zse,zi,zlr...})
:-D
Additionally, http://software.opensuse.org/search does not provide a concise list, you have to dismiss the 1-click install stuff, then look at recommended packages, then follow additional links to actually find the remaining packages.
And the screen has been "improved" this month. I now have problems finding my way around here, but I make do.
webpin provides a concise, condensed list of all packages available in a split second, with a 2-character alias and search term :)
Yes, I know. Such is life. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.3 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
