[indiana-discuss] [pkg-discuss] Package Manager Online Help for review

[Chris Quenelle]

Under search, this is a little ambiguous:

> Enter the complete name, description, or a partial name to search for the package

Could someone suggest a slightly more specific description of
how the search box is translated into a pkg search?

Does the typed search term have to be a complete word in pkg text?

Perhaps a substring is used for the package name, but a complete
word match is required to match the description?  (I'm trying to
dig up some fuzzy memories of previous threads)

I assume that both the package name and the description are searched,
but not the contents (like file paths) inside the packages?  Will this still
be true for 2009.06?
