Description James Begley 2008-07-09 15:10:20 UTC
Description of problem:

Searching the koji website doesnt work very well.  You need to know the exact 
name for the builds that you are searching for.  Eg a search for 'bluez' shows 
no results, and you have to know to search for 'bluez-util' or 'bluez-libs'.  
Also a search for a specific rpm fails, eg searching for 'bluez-utils-alsa' 
returns no results (since its part of the 'bluez-utils' package).  All of this 
means that searching the koji website isn't particularly useful.  I would hope 
that a search for 'bluez' would show some useful information.

I guess that this should be filed as an enhancement directly with koji, but 
since I can't work the koji trac system (I guess it should be available at 
https://fedorahosted.org/koji/newticket but it isnt there for me) I've given up 
and filed it here.

Koji searching supports globs:

As for searching for packages, you can use the dropdown box to move from
searching packages to rpms
