I probably misunderstood the above but do you suggest every 'pkg search' invocation would go over the network to the server instead of searching local cache? That's not good, it'd be too slow, to say nothing about the load on the server. I typically do hundreds of 'aptitude search foo' for every 'aptitude update' in debian. It'd be very annoying if it did an implicit update for every search. -- Jyri J.
