Subject: Searching for debian packages with keywords does not find relevant entries
Message-Id: <20020805185003.DB0D68BBA9@mail.sefanet.ch>
Delivered-To: submit@bugs.debian.org
Package: www.debian.org
Version: n/a
The problem became apparent to me when I tried to install the fastCGI
library for the apache httpd on my debian system. The corresponding
package is called 'libapache-mod-fastcgi', the important contents
is the file mod_fastcgi.so. I did not know the name of the package
and dselect, searching for 'fast' did not found it either.
I went straight to the package search facility
(http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages) and tried to search
with keywords.
Here some example of my unsuccessful searches:
- 'fast', 'cgi', 'apache'
This turns up 49 entries, but none concerning 'libapache-mod-fastcgi'.=
- 'fastcgi'
1 entry 'framerd'
(Always searcing for 'any','any','allow subwords')
After some more of the same failures I turned to google and found rapidl=
y
(1st hit !) an usenet post revealing the package name (libapache-mod-fas=
tcgi).
Coming back to www.debian.org I found the package without problems searc=
hing
for the name. In the package description the keywords I used for searchi=
ng
are present.
I conclude that searching for keywords is package descriptions is buggy =
and
does not work correctly.

Hi, searching with keywords works fine now, libapache-mod-fastcgi
package is always found, both with "fast" or "cgi" keyword.
