Univention Bugzilla – Bug 55450
univention-install has no capability to search for packages

The command `univention-install` is (in my understanding) a wrapper for `apt`, installing software "in a univention way" (some more magic to make it suitable for UCS-environments, setting things up in the background). I'd expect a capability to search for packages i can install with it, but there is none. Instead, the german documentation says: (https://docs.software-univention.de/manual/5.0/de/software/further-software.html) > Wenn der Name eines Pakets nicht bekannt ist, kann mit dem Kommando apt-cache search nach Paketen gesucht werden. So, users should install software with this command, but use another tool for searching (or remove packages with yet another command `univention-remove`). Enhancement: `univention-install` should be able to let me as a user search for packagenames i could install, without the need of another command.
wrong category by mistake, corrected
