I wonder what approach to searching was used (but will admit that I haven't bothered to read the referenced reddit thread). Each of `apt search helix` and `apt-cache search helix` and `axi-cache search helix` has the hx package as a result. I am not convinced that metapackages is a good instrument for discoverability - indexing tools that take package descriptions into account is a far better instrument for that purpose. Please also see https://bugs.debian.org/1024683#38 and https://bugs.debian.org/1024683#65 for my responses to arbuably related requests. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ * Sponsorship: https://ko-fi.com/drjones [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
