For full history: http://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/ports/sysutils/ansible/patches/Attic/patch-library_packaging_openbsd_pkg ========= Use -z when invoking pkg_add in openbsd_pkg module, so that one can use for example php-fpm-5.4* and ensure the correct version is installed. Previously, one had to specify the exact version, or ansible would fail since there were alternatives. ========= And the discussion with upstream in the maze of github tickets: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/8990 https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-extras/issues/97 So the original idea was more or less to use -z to 'fake' branch support when it wasnt existing. As for pkg_info -e vs pkg_info -Iq, i dont know what was the intent of the change nor if it was good or not, but here -Iq finds an installed package by giving only its name (but not if you pass the version without patchlevel): $pkg_info -Iq ansible ansible-2.1.1.0p2 $pkg_info -e ansible Invalid spec: ansible $pkg_info -e ansible-2.1.1.0 inst:ansible-2.1.1.0p2 $pkg_info -Dunsigned -Iq ansible-2.1.1.0 Error from http://ftp.fr.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/packages/amd64/ansible-2.1.1.0.tgz ftp: Error retrieving file: 404 Not Found $pkg_info -Iq ansible-2.1.1.0p2 ansible-2.1.1.0p2 The only 'advantage' of -e here is that it finds it if you pass the full version without the patchlevel.
