I have v. 1.6 via apt-get on an uptodate buster amd64 system. Every attempt to run a search yields "No results," even if I specify 'Boston Red Sox'. Recommendations? Calm soothing thoughts? Thank you. -- RSB

Why give up on the search engine merely because a rogue util has gone goofy? I went looking for duckduckgo search syntax and found what I need, which is not all that much. https://help.duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/results/syntax/ WHAT I REALLY WANT TO KNOW is why every doctor's office in the country wants me to show up fifteen minutes early. Why not just push all the appts back fifteen minutes? Gets me there at the same time No good? Hmm...those bastards are up to something. -- RSB

Because I had better alternatives that were more reliable, easier to use, and IMO a little more aligned with unix-y linux-y "tradition".

Calm soothing thoughts? This sounds like https://github.com/jarun/ddgr/issues/119 The reporter there was using version 1.7 and was advised to upgrade to version 1.9. I imagine the same problem manifests in version 1.6. > > Thank you. >
