Package: www.debian.org
Version: N/A; reported 2001-10-09
Severity: important

For example, search for "office", then for "siagoffice" in package
names.

Another example, strings like "patch" appear to match all packages
whose name *starts* with "patch", but fails to find all
"kernel-patch-*", which the "kernel-patch" string finds easily.

Is there a "^" lurking somewhere ?

 Yes, it's even documented on the very same page, next to the form:

  * Subword searching only checks for arbitrary suffixes, not prefixes.

 HTH!
