Error in package search CGI scripts.

[Steve Kemp <skx@tardis.ed.ac.uk>]

Hi,

  Just a quick mail to report an error in the package search script.
  [Some of these URL's may have wrapped badly, I apologise in advance
 if this is the case].

  I started at:

	http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages

   Filled in the form for "Search Package Directories", by typing
 "kernel", and clicking search.

  This gave me 20 hits, at the following URL:


http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=kernel&searchon=names&subword=1&version=stable&release=all

  At the bottom of the page I see :

	"Responses 1-20 shown, out of total of 32"

  The URL that is then given is wrong, it is:


http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages?keywords=kernel&searchon=names&version=stable&release=all&start=21&subword=1

  Notice how the "search_packages" script which is called is
 missing the ".pl" extension?
  I manually added .pl, and was taken to the correct 12
 results.

  I hope this is helpful to you..
