Bug? searching with * and the verb 'delete'

[Ruud Hendrickx]

I noticed some weird search results today. Have a look at:

http://taalmail.net/mobi/search.cgi

and enter these search items:

- gedeletete (found 2)
- gedelete*e (found 2)
- gedelet*e (found 0)
- gedelet*te (found 2)
- gedele*te (found 0)
- gedel*te (found 0)
- gedel*tete (found 2)

As far as I can tell, this happens only with 'deleten' (Dutch for 'delete'). 'Gedeletet' is the past participle.

We have confirmed that this is a bug in the current release. The problem has to do with wildcards that appear in the middle of a word, against certain patterns of repeated characters.

We will definitely have this fixed in V6. It would be included in the next V5.1 patch build too, but judging by our current timeline, it's possible that V6 will be out before that (in which case, there would not be any additional V5.1 builds).

Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
