ncurses not found when searching for curses #1359

I was recently looking for bindings to (n)curses, searching for curses. This search returns hscurses and other results, but not the ncurses package.
Searching for ncurses instead finds both ncurses and hscurses.

I think this is rather unexpected, but don't know if one of the other issues is already mentioning this (maybe vaguely related to #829?). Or is my expectation wrong here?

We use exact match with stemming, not substring match. ncurses won't stem to "curses" and there's no use of the word "curses" in the package description, not sure how we could improve this?
