Package: tracker.debian.org Severity: normal Tags: newcomer The code search form uses the old PTS codesearch.cgi script. The old PTS will be deleted at some point so the distro-tracker should not rely on it. The code for the old PTS codesearch script is available at [1] and the reference to it is listed in [2]. The task would be to add a new codesearch page that redirects to the correct codesearch URL. This workaround is needed as codesearch does not yet accept the package name as a separate query parameter. This looks like a fairly easy task for someone new to the tracker who knows a bit of django.
