That's a reasonable change. However, there's an underlying issue here:
the search system is based on hyper estraier which is no longer
supported upstream (or in Debian).

It needs to be ripped out and replaced with something using xapian or
similar.

You might consider stopping the distribution of it in the package until
that code is in place.
