What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Search for pname:com.google.earth
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
An array with Google Earth at the first position. I see an empty array.
I think is useful to access the market as a Nexus One or any 2.0 device.
You are accessing as a 1.5 or 1.6 and you can't retrieve info about new
programs.

I'm not sure that Android 2.0 apps are the culprit on this issue. Or there
could be
multiple things going on.
I have discovered many 1.5 and 1.6 apps that don't show up in the query
results. I
tried different providers and Locales and they never show up. Examples:
pname:net.geekherd.airplanemode, pname:com.compareeverywhere
I think there might be a problem issuing a query in the form "pname:<package>",
or
that there's something else that must be set to search by package name.

you may want to check the sdk version parameter in MarketSession.java.

I played with the setDeviceAndSdkVersion RequestContext.Builder method. It
doesn't
seem to have any affect on the search results.
E.g., I tried:
context.setDeviceAndSdkVersion("sapphire:3");
context.setDeviceAndSdkVersion("sapphire:6");
context.setDeviceAndSdkVersion("blah:7777");
All three returned the same search results, none that included Android 2.0 apps.

Finally I've found a device with 2.1 to play.
You can use "sapphire:7" to receive 2.0 apps.

Hmm. I'm seeing this issue again, pname:com.google.earth is one of my test
cases, I'm no longer seeing it returned for "sapphire:7".
Anyone else able to find it by searching for the package?

I think actually you can download Google Earth only from a Nexus One. I don't
have this phone and I can't see what the real packet contains.

Oh. Interesting.
I have a Nexus One so I could test this but I don't know how to check out the
packets. I've tried playing with Wireshark in the past but couldn't get it
running on my Mac.

I've used this on my Magic, and works fine: http://strazzere.com/blog/?p=286
Use tcpdump to capture packets while you are browsing the market. Then, take
the request parameters and uncompile it (base64 + protocol buffer).
