Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.11.9-1
Severity: wishlist
If I want to write a three-condition "and" or "or", I have to write it
as nested binary conditions, such as ?and(?cond1, ?and(?cond2,
?cond3)). I'd rather write that as ?and(?cond1, ?cond2, ?cond3).
Please consider supporting an arbitrary number of arguments in ?and
and ?or.

Hi
While working on some new stuff I noticed that this has been implemented.
$ aptitude search '?or(~nasdf,~nzxcv,~nqwer,~nemacs23$)'
p cl-asdf
i A emacs23
$ aptitude search '?and(~nlinux,~nimage,~n3,~n2,~i)'
i A linux-image-3.2.0-1-686-pae
Turns out this was done as part of a larger rewrite shortly after this
feature request.
Though there is no mention of expanding the syntax of these two search
operators, these commits are were the change was introduced:

Port the parser to generate the new pattern structure (untested).

The matching code has been due for a rewrite for a long time. There
are two goals in this rewrite:
