Is it only me or does pamacs search not work proper anymore.
If i use octopi, it shows complete different search results as when i use pamac, ie the term “blue” or “linux”, its way more sorted at octopi.
Can you please include more of a description, or better yet, quoted examples?
pamac search package
With a wild guess I might ponder on your mirrors. Sync status. Possibly pacnews.
Here is a helpful guide that will include hints like how to format code etc.
It worked once at pamac as at octopi, but after an update, it suddenly did not work anymore.
I maintain my system regulary also update it, that should not be the problem.
I already reinstalled pamac once, but it did not work anymore.
In a terminal it looks like it works as expected, but not at the GUI

Have you set pamac to “Software Mode” ?
I tried both, once software mode checked, once unchecked and tried to change the sorting itself, but all methods dont work, as it once did, that it shows the results in a sorted way like in octopi.
Edit. Oh wait, i unchecked “Software mode” and it did take a while until it did refresh the results, and its back at the old style.
Thanks.
