Octopi: search on description don't work

Support Software & Applications
1

Hi all,
I’m trying to use octopi but I’m not able to search for packages using words in descriptions.

As an example searching for a prometheus exporter for SNMP:

Searching prometheus find it (among a lot of other packages) and the description contains the 2 words: prometheus and SNMP

The search is set on description

Now searching for “prometheus SNMP” it finds nothing

How can I search for packages whose names I don’t know?

I can reproduce it. It would be better to create an upstream issue so the developer can look into it.

maybe because in Arch is

Prometheus
Prometheus481×172 14.3 KB

?

anyway if you type one name or the other you will find

Snmp
Snmp1275×346 42.3 KB

is like if you search for manjaro-settings-manager

Manjaro Settings
Manjaro Settings1263×318 19.6 KB

Settings

I don’t know if it is a bug. Maybe intended?

It only accepts one keyword.

Does prometheus-snmp qualify as one word?

Yes, it does.
