Comment (by noloader@…):

 Replying to [comment:2 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.

 Yes, agreed. It would probably be better if things "just worked" out of
 the box without requiring the user to do extra things.
