Resembles != equals. I'm four decades past learning new languages. In simple terms, I want a search to return complete package names, base package name with version string appended. Anything more that fits on a single line is a bonus. Anything that routinely makes individual results require more than ~80 characters is too verbose. Another example: $ grep RETT /etc/os-release PRETTY_NAME="Mageia 6" $ urpmq -y kernel-desk kernel-desktop-4.9.35-1.mga6 kernel-desktop-4.9.40-1.mga6 kernel-desktop-4.9.43-1.mga6 kernel-desktop-4.9.50-1.mga6 kernel-desktop-4.9.56-1.mga6 kernel-desktop-devel-4.9.35-1.mga6 kernel-desktop-devel-4.9.40-1.mga6 kernel-desktop-devel-4.9.43-1.mga6 kernel-desktop-devel-4.9.50-1.mga6 kernel-desktop-devel-4.9.56-1.mga6 kernel-desktop-devel-latest kernel-desktop-latest vboxadditions-kernel-desktop-latest virtualbox-kernel-desktop-latest xtables-addons-kernel-desktop-latest -- "Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom.
