As the OP's link explicitly referenced "debian" I used Synaptic's

name, but several in description field.
*MY* reference to "Erling" *IS* a typo. I did the tests with
"Erlang". I used copy-n-paste in tests 'cause I'm a licy tipist ;}
apt list '~nerlang'
gives more than 100 package names. <https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=bookworm&searchon=names&keywords=erlang>
adds a warning that not all packages are listed due to excessive
number.
I do not use synaptic, so I have no idea if it is possible to break
search by changing its settings. I would start from inspection of apt sources
apt policy
Something I forgot to mention earlier, for anyone who does use
Synaptic. There is an additional search available, using Xapian. The
package is apt-xapian-index, I find it more useful than the built-in
search function.
