Hi Alvaro,

by default Hoogle only searches some standard set of packages, which is only a relatively small subset of all Hackage content. From http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Hoogle#Scope_of_Web_Searches :

> Using the standard web interface, Hoogle searches: array, arrows, base, bytestring, Cabal, cgi, containers, directory, filepath, haskell-src, HUnit, mtl, old-locale, old-time, packedstring, parallel, parsec, pretty, process, QuickCheck, random, stm, template-haskell, time, xhtml.

See http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Hoogle/Packages

One solution is to install Hoogle locally and let it index all packages you have installed.

Best regards,
Petr

Searching Hoogle for symbols like `rstrip` or `lstrip` produces "No
results found" for me, even though they exist in the MissingH library.
To wit: http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/MissingH/1.2.0.0/doc/html/Data-String-Utils.html

Is this behavior intentional, or a regression of some sort? I could
have sworn the above symbols showed up at some point.

Thanks!

Alvaro
