(In reply to Graham Perrin from comment #0) I can see something like the offer to add search engines you mentioned above by visiting https://www.freebsd.org/ in Firefox and clicking the magnifying glass at the left of the search bar. This opens a dropdown showing 5 mini-icons of the FreeBSD logo with a green + superimposed on the right horn, reading in order: Add "FreeBSD man pages" (pointing to https://www.freebsd.org/opensearch/man.xml) Add "FreeBSD + ports man pages" (pointing to https://www.freebsd.org/opensearch/man-freebsd-release-ports.xml) Add "FreeBSD Ports and Packages Collection" (pointing to https://www.freebsd.org/opensearch/ports.xml) Add "FreeBSD Mailing List Message-ID Search" (pointing to https://www.freebsd.org/opensearch/message-id.xml) Add "FreeBSD Mailing List Search by MarkMail" (pointing to https://www.freebsd.org/opensearch/markmail.xml), When on https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi, I only see the first 2 offered. Is that the same thing you're referring to? Looking at your screenshot, I wonder whether the ones without the + are ones you already added (from whichever version of which FreeBSD page) and the ones with the + are offers to add new or renamed ones. Could you check which URL each of the 6 you see uses? I could find that for the +'d ones by hovering over each with my mouse. A commit in branch main references this bug: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/doc/commit/?id=515c1e6d510db2084745df39367bfd95657bf359 commit 515c1e6d510db2084745df39367bfd95657bf359 Author: Wolfram Schneider <wosch@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2022-01-01 17:18:55 +0000 Commit: Wolfram Schneider <wosch@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2022-01-01 17:18:55 +0000 sync opensearch title description: Manpages -> Manual Pages This will hopefully fix the issue with duplicated search engine suggestions PR: 260857 website/content/en/cgi/man.cgi | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) Thanks to both of you, sorry I could not respond sooner. (Attention diverted elsewhere.) Created attachment 230633 [details] Screenshot: the address bar context menu at <https://www.freebsd.org/> Incidentally, testing with Firefox 95.0.2 in safe mode, I find (at the time of writing): * two search engines available, with and without the context menu approach, at <https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi> * three engines if I (lazily) allow the drop-down to make the offer at <https://www.freebsd.org/> * five engines if I use the address bar context menu at <https://www.freebsd.org/> – screenshot attached. FreeBSD Manual Pages,
FreeBSD + Ports Manual Pages
============================
If the former is intended to exclude pages for ports: as far as I can tell, it does not. Seeking something that is not (yet) in base
gitup
finds its page at
<https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=gitup&sourceid=opensearch>
Compare with the result for the latter engine:
<https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?manpath=freebsd-release-ports&query=gitup&sourceid=opensearch>
----
If 'FreeBSD Manual Pages' is intended to exclude pages for ports, then the result should, I suspect, be more like this:
<https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?manpath=FreeBSD&query=gitup&sourceid=opensearch>
– which currently results in selection of the 'FreeBSD 13.0-RELEASE' menu option.
NB the manpath=FreeBSD part of the URL.
Thanks
I hope the issues are now fixed. |
