shows search results for lts-17.0
clicking search again navs to
https://www.stackage.org/lts-17.0/hoogle?q=Aeson
I should clarify it better in the display. We were having disk space issues with providing access to all of the Hoogle snapshots, so we now only support a single LTS and a single Nightly. The alternative was causing unnecessary pod ejection.
I've added a comment at the top of each search result page, linking back to this issue.
Ouch that's a shame but understandable
This caused a little confusion in #haskell today. If it's possible, I think having https://www.stackage.org/OLDVERSIONS/hoogle* redirect to https://www.stackage.org/ACTUALLYINDEXEDVERSION/hoogle* would make it much clearer.
Sorry, I meant the hoogle urls. Doing a hoogle search at https://www.stackage.org/lts-18.28 currently takes you to https://www.stackage.org/lts-18.28/hoogle?q=test, which is actually showing 19.23 results, hence the confusion. Normally the URL is definitive so we tend to look at that more than fine print on the page.

How much disk space is required? I might be interested to rebuild the docs locally since i have some old spare HDD's
Searching old versions was such a power feature, i'm not sure what to do without.
