Description Alex Thierry 2017-02-27 23:32:20 UTC
Only works for one research.
After that, whatever I'm looking for, entering the name won't return any result.
Need to exit the app and launch it again.
Synaptic working fine anyway.

Confirmed, makes muon unusable, a real pitty.

The bug should have been fixed in libqapt 3.0.3. It would be great if you can confirm.

Muon is using Xapian to search packages. The problem is that after updating the xapian index (small progress bar in the lower right corner of the Muon window) any search will return an empty result until we reload the updated index. That reload was missing.
Maybe you are doing the first search while xapian is still updating and you get you search result, but not afterwards. Is that possible?

Muon is no longer maintained, please switch no a supported alternative like https://apps.kde.org/discover/ or the package manager native no your system.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
