Comment (by ryandesign@…):
In the case of lcrypto, it does include the words "Bouncy Castle" in the
long description, but not in the short description, and `port search` by
default only searches the short description. You can get it to search the
long description by passing a flag:
{{{
$ port search --long_description bouncy
lcrypto @1.28 (java, crypto)
Java cryptographic library
}}}
but I admit this is not ideal. Maybe we should consider making `port
search` also search the long description by default.
I hope eventually to have a redesigned MacPorts web site which will
provide more information about each port and be more easily searchable.
