Ed Greshko:
Well, sadly....
[egreshko@meimei ~]$ dnf search all pgp | grep geany
[egreshko@meimei ~]$
[egreshko@meimei ~]$ dnf search all gpg | grep geany
[egreshko@meimei ~]$
So nothing would have come from it.
But, if you search for gnupg, it does. Of course, you need to know
about that permutation of pgp-related things. I only do because I've
used something the past that was named that way. In my opinion, gpg-
and pgp- related packages need both those keywords in their metadata
(that could be a bugzilla report).
Then again one could have done "dnf search geany" and
scanned the
results. Or made a guess and did
"dnf search geany | grep encr".
In this case (geany), you would have to have known about an obscurely
related package, in the first place. Though a generic search against a
keyword like encrypt is a fair expectation.
