Yes

Package Manager does not match all string patterns when searching in "My Assets"

Packman

-

How to reproduce:
1. Create a new Unity project
2. Open Package Manager
3. Select "My Assets"
4. Type in a substring of the asset that doesn't contain the first letter

Expected results: A string pattern matching algorithm is used that matches all patterns
Actual results: A string pattern matching algorithm is used that matches only from the start of the string

Reproducible with: 2020.1.0a1, 2020.1.17f1, 2020.2.1f1, 2021.1.0b1
Not reproducible with: 2019.4.17f1
Could not test with: 2018.4.30f1 (No "My Assets" section)

  1. Resolution Note (2021.2.X):

    Not a bug according to the Genesis team.
    The `minotaur` package not matching the `taur` search string is not just in the Package Manager UI side, but also on the asset store backend.
    It is the expected behaviour of the search API from the asset store back end. Only exact match and prefix match can get the results (with 1-distance typo tolerance).
