OpenBSD::PkgSpec(3p)   Perl Programmers Reference Guide	  OpenBSD::PkgSpec(3p)

NAME
       OpenBSD::PkgSpec - "packages-specs(7)" handling

SYNOPSIS
	  use OpenBSD::Search; # which pulls in OpenBSD::PkgSpec when needed

	  my $spec = OpenBSD::Search::PkgSpec->new($pattern);
	  @sublist = $spec->filter(@list);

DESCRIPTION
       "OpenBSD::PkgSpec" is the canonical interface to "packages-specs(7)"
       handling.

       A package specification $pattern is a string that can be used to
       extract matching package names from a @list.  The resulting list
       @sublist will only hold the package names that match the specification.

       For performance reason, the result may contain duplicates.

       Note that any pattern will create a "PkgSpec" object. If the syntax is
       incorrect, the resulting object won't match anything. Use
       "$spec->is_valid" to check for correctness.
