To help determine where the problem lies, could you please try 'pkg search gnome' and 'pkg search python' from the command line and see what happens?

Thanks,
Brock

Hi guys.

I'm having "one of those days," so before I file a bug I thought I'd ask
here for a reality check. :-)

Is search broken for anyone else but me? Beginning with revision 1179,
if I type a term in the Search entry (e.g. 'gnome') and press Return,
the result (after 30 seconds) is an empty list, a timeout indication in
the statusbar, and a dialog indicating failure on the dev repo. If I
revert to 1178 it's all good again.

If this is not just me, I'll file the bug.
Search now requires a network connection to the repositories you have to work as it uses the pkg(5) api to search. Before it only did local searches and did not require a network connection by default.

What search are you trying to perform, and what is the output of:

pkg publisher

I'm searching for 'gnome' in the category All Applications.
With gnome you will get a lot of hits which might be causing the timeout issues on the depot side, try searching for "python" say and see how it goes. For "python" I get 52 hits against opensolaris.org (http://pkg.opensolaris.org/release/) in 13 seconds.
