There doesn't seem so be any relationship between the search term and the search results.

For example, typing libsdl1.2 into the quick search box lists 134 mostly unrelated packages, typing libsdl1.2-dev even returns more than 3600 packages.

Typing more than one word will also confuse the search. For example, searching for "xchat gnome" (without quotes) results in 1373 packages.
