When searching the article, bug, and links pages, you can create complex search queries using a few simple logical operators.
The default logical operator is OR - list each word you want to find separated by spaces. For example, to find all bug reports about SNMP or networking, use:
snmp network
You can also require both words using the AND keyword. For example, to find all bug reports about SNMP against CUPS 1.2.x, use:
snmp and 1.2
Enclose phrases containing spaces in quotes. For example, to find all articles about weekly snapshots, use:
"weekly snapshot"
The NOT operator can be used to exclude a word or phrase. For example, to find all articles that are not about weekly snapshots, use:
not "weekly snapshot"
Similarly, to find all 1.2 bug reports that are not feature requests, use:
1.2 and not feature
You can group multiple queries using parenthesis. For example, to find all 1.2 bug reports concerning Solaris or HP-UX, use:
1.2 and (Solaris HP-UX)
You can search specific fields by prefixing your search words with the corresponding field name. For example, to find all bug reports submitted by user "jane", use:
creator:jane
