Some initial comments:
- the search results page seems … messy. Would it be possible to
group results by parent package? E.g.
https://packages.stg.fedoraproject.org/search?query=systemd returns
four pages of results, and a large number of entries is for
subpackages. Grouping them would make it easier to find other
interesting packages which are not part of the main package.
Maybe also sort the results somehow? I think the method that dnf
uses is pretty good: result are grouped by how they are matched:
"Name Exactly Matched", "Name & Summary Matched", "Name Matched",
"Summary Matched". And within each group, results are sorted
alphabetically. This gives a "clean" look (also because subpackages
tend to be grouped together), gives the most relevant result first,
and still makes it easy to scan the list.
Some anecdata. I've tried to search for python3.9 which is an exact name of a
package I co-maintain.
https://packages.stg.fedoraproject.org/search?query=python3.9
It found 6997 results but the python3.9 package is not on the first 10 pages
(and I suspect it's a problem with python3.9 being a component?).
