Bug Description

If I go to:

    https://launchpad.ubuntu.com/products/malone/+bugs

and search for "listing", I get three pages of search results.

If I search for "listin" I get 0 results.

The search is overly-literal

If I go to:

and search for "listing", I get three pages of search results.

If I search for "listin" I get 0 results.

The search is overly-literal. I would expect all of the results returned by "listing" to be returned by "listin".

Requires integration of a spell checker into the system. There is ispell support in tsearch2 but I didn't have much success last time I gave it a whirl. Need to try it again.
