Description Thomas Moerkerken 2003-09-01 08:09:45 UTC

qpkg does not find installed/not-installed packages when not using the exact
packagename (case-sensitive). See example. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. thomas@linux $ qpkg 4suite
2. there is no result.
3. thomas@linux $ qpkg 4Suite
dev-python/4Suite




Not sure if this behaviour is intentional. However `find` commands in qpkg are
case insensitive ( -iname ) but the grepping for my argument is not.
