[Koha] Incorrect search links in biblio displays

[Braedon Vickers]

Hello all,

I am working on a Koha install for a school, and it appears to be 
generating search urls that it can't parse for some search links on 
biblio display pages, both in OPAC and staff client.

Some search links work, such as author and series links in the staff 
client. They use "idx=<parameter>&q=<search string>" syntax.

However, others, such as the subject and additional author links in the 
staff client, and all I have come across so far in OPAC, use 
"q=<parameter>:<search string>" syntax and do not work. The search 
script doesn't seem to parse the string to extract the parameter, and 
instead does a keyword search for the whole thing. This obviously gives 
in no results for single word search strings, and incorrect results for 
multi-word.

Is this likely to be a configuration issue, or should it be reported as 
a bug?

The Koha installation is 3.00.05, upgraded from 3.00.01, through 
3.00.04, running on Debian. It uses noZebra searching.

thanks,
