I agree that it is an easy move that improve the current search experience. :-) So, yes work in progress... using the code that Arun sent and the code already available: sets.scm and pull.scm etc.. And how to adapt the lookup to the current fold-packages+regexp-matching. Do you think `vhash' is better than `hash-table'? However, I am not clear about how "guix pull" works so how to update the index. Still trying to figure out. :-) Well I am not clear about what is cached... I mean my folder ~/.cache/guix is crowdy. ;-) Cheers, simon
