Nov 27, 2017 at 22:36 comment added Basil If I understood you correctly, you are looking for a completion frontend such as ivy or helm, which overrides completing-read-function and related minibuffer/in-buffer completion options to provide "fuzzy" completion almost everywhere in Emacs. Enabling such modes automatically makes the M-x package-install RET completion session use "fuzzy" filtering.

Nov 27, 2017 at 21:24 comment added Stefan Your question is unclear: you vaguely say what behavior you want, and you say you can get it in Spacemacs, but you don't say in which other context you want it. Also you say you "get issues" but don't say what are those. Finally, note that the default completion in Emacs accepts * for glob-patterns, so you can type *py TAB to see packages whose name includes py.
