I can confirm the problem.

When I add FreeNX repository as described here
 freenx package can only be
found via regular search but not via quick search.

My Intrepid is always up-to-date. This same behavior with freenx package
occurs on 2 different machines (one at home, one office server) so I
believe it should be reproducible elsewhere.

..and yes, everything is selected in search filters and all packages are
uptodate.

@Chris Coulson: mh oky, wildcard works for "ntfs", however other search
terms definitely match substrings (eg. "mount" matches gnome-mount,
9mount etc. even substrings in descriptions), so why does "ntfs" only
work with wildcard while other search terms do not?

A couple of things come to mind, First under "Settings", then "Filters",
and "Search Filters", do you have everything selected? Also have you run

apt-get update

and

apt-get upgrade

 to the newest packages? May be stupid questions, but I would like to
rule out the simple solutions before diving deeper into this. If you
have updates that are installed (even if they are not synaptic), please
confirm this behaviour still exists afterwards

This is a duplicate, and that's how the quick search box works. When you
search for "ntfs" in the quick search box, it is only searching packages
that begin with "ntfs". If you want to use quick search to search all
package names containing the letters "ntfs", then use wildcards. If you
think that behaviour is wrong, then open a separate bug report for that.

This is not a duplicate.

Even after forcing xapian index update, searching for "ntfs" for example
will only return 2 results using indexed/quick search, while regular
search by name reveals 11.

I replicated this on 2 machines running jaunty, a friend of mine using
intrepid confirmed the issue as well.

Fabio > It seems to be similar to bug #288797. Please test the
workaround mentionned there : open a terminal and run "sudo update-apt-

Sorry, but I cannot find that package...

Here's a stack trace without debugging symbols, if that can help you. I
simply ran synaptic as root and immediately closed it.

Sorry, but I don't know how to reproduce this bug on a machine on which
it has never occured before. Let me know if I can provide any additional
info.

The bug description seems clear to me:

1) Open synaptic
2) Write "doxygen" in the quick search box
3) No package is found

Alternatively:

1) Open synaptic
2) Search for package doxygen manually by moving the scrollbar
3) No such package can be found

Note that I have all software sources enabled.

I have this problem on an updated Intrepid machine, though full search
and apt work properly. To be more precise, when I start Synaptic and
before performing ANY quick search, the list of "all" packages does not
really contain all packages, and reloading doesn't fix it.
