I don't know what you mean by "(archived)". The static pages list the *non*-archived reports, and are updated daily. It's the older, archived reports that are not included. > I think it would be nice if people were able to use the search engines > to find previous bug reports. :-) They can: 1) search the static pages via their search engine of choice. These all contain big links (in red) to the dynamic pages. 2) search the bug mailing list archives using their search engine of choice, or the supplied lists.gnu.org search 3) use the normal debbugs search 4) use the full-text debbugs search > Is there any plans to upgrade the debbugs.gnu.org machine so that it > could allow search engines back? If it's a 500MB machine now, it sounds > like it might be slightly (ahem) old? Not AFAIK (to both questions). It's a virtual machine that has a slice of some large-ish, modern-ish, machine (I guess). It seems quite capable of doing what it needs to do, IMO. I don't see a need to allow search engines to run cgi queries on it.
