searching for substring "rustc-ap" of crate name yields 0 results

[matthiaskrgr]

I was searching for "rustc-ap.*" crates on the website, when searching for "rustc-ap", 0 results are shown which is strange because it is literally a substring of the crate name.

Searching for "rustc-" or "rustc" does find some of them though, I wonder what is going on here..

Yeah, we have the same problem with other crates as well, like stm32f1 doesn't find stf32f1xx-hal.

CC @sgrif We talked about this at the RaH and you mentioned a potential fix?

I guess I'm not the first to discover the search issue since there's a ticket on it already. I tried searching for soap and get a few libs back, but soapysdr wasn't listed even though it exists.

@sgrif @FreeMasen Wouldn't be covered by #1560?

[FreeMasen]

@kzys I believe this would be fixed if #1560 is merged

Yes, I think this is a duplicate of #159 and will be addressed by #1560. I'm taking a look at #1560 now!
