Rich,
I don't think you really answered either of my questions.
1) What metadata should be in entire?
Just description?
OR Both description and pkg.summary?
OR Just pkg.summary?
2) We're saying that 'pkg list -s' uses description and not
pkg.summary? Why shouldn't we do the same algorithm in list -s
as you do in the API? Or was this an oversight, and needs fixing?
