Searching for "pgp" does not show OpenPGP RFCs #34

Open thgoebel opened 4 months ago

thgoebel commented 4 months ago

Steps to reproduce

  1. Set the flag "Show obsolete and historic" (just in case)
  2. Search for "pgp"

Expected behaviour

Search results should show RFCs with "PGP" in the title, e.g. RFC 4880.

Actual behaviour

Search results show only some RFCs with "OpenPGP" in the title. Many other (arguably important, like 4880) OpenPGP RFCs are missing.

I am not sure if this affects other keywords as well.

Hi, thanks for reporting.

The search engine anchors at the beginning of words; I found that allowing full-text search returned very noisy results. The problem, I think, is that the keywords for these specs don't contain the very obvious "PGP".
