Optimially we would use exact package name, but yes, Ben had a horrible performance with those. I tried to create the same in regex, but I never got it right, so I gave up in the end. The particular suggestion works for the particular example, but fails with dashes: $ echo a-b | perl -ne 'print "MATCH\n" if m/\ba\b/' MATCH So, if you had libkontactinterface4 and libkontactinterface4-a, then the regex would still be broken even with your suggestion. ~Niels -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
