Bug Description
Binary package hint: synaptic
In Synaptic, when I search for something like 'ubuntu-res', it fails to find 'ubuntu-
This is seen by 'abiword' and 'abiword-', etc.
$ lsb_release -a && apt-cache policy synaptic
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu intrepid (development branch)
Release: 8.10
Codename: intrepid
synaptic:
Installed: 0.62.1ubuntu9
Candidate: 0.62.1ubuntu9
Version table:
*** 0.62.1ubuntu9 0
500 http://
100 /var/lib/
UPDATE: For 0.62.1ubuntu10 this behaviour changed to "A quick search for 'word1-word2' will now find packages matching any of the words 'word1' or 'word2', instead of the hyphenated combination 'word1-word2'", crippling its usability, since *many* packages contain hyphens.
