publictest16 update (Yum Package Search)
Yum package search is now operational and populating through a rawhide database which is
updated every hour via a cron script. Yum gets many more results because it also lists
subpackages which causes a problem since the packages apps only understand parent package
names. To get around this I take the srpm, chop off the version and file extensions and
compare that to the package name to see if it is the parent. We only link to the parent
but I asked Mo to mock up what it should look like if a user clicks on a subpackage.
