The man page for pkg_fetch says this:
The following command line arguments are supported:
pkgname Specify a full pkgname, a pkgname without version
followed by an @, or a full URI.
But it doesn't say what appending a '@' to the package name means. Some
experimentation doesn't reveal any difference.
Anyone know what the '@' does?
I don't really do perl very well, but it looks like that *forces* the
pkgname to be treated as not including the version information. Could
be useful in cases where the pkgtools have trouble isolating what the
ports system considers to be the version information.
