Yes. A beginner´s mistake. I´m sorry. I was testing things because It
seems that bacula do not treat lookahead and lookbehind assertions. C++
regex.h uses ECMAScript
<http://www.cplusplus.com/regex_constants#syntax_option_type> grammar which
allows assertions. But tests using bregex with no success.

This is the way I have been using for this situations. But I was wondering
If in the case of the need of a string negation, how this could be possible.
