Bug Description
Searching for maps_protect in procps should return bug 269715 (which you can find by searching on just protect), but it doesn't return anything.
if there's some help somewhere on special characters in search, it wasn't obvious enough for me to find it, even though I had a quick look on the advanced search page.
Anyway, _ can be part of tokens in most programming languages, which is actually maybe a good argument for the bug search treating it as a word character.
To post a comment you must log in.
As a workaround, the global search at https:/ /launchpad. net/ will find it correctly.
