# Search for package PKG. Both package names and their descriptions are searched
|
|
# for a REGEX match; to avoid this behavior, you may use the `-n` flag, which will
|
|
# only look for a match in the package name.

# Regarding the above, although multiple package names may not be specified, it's
|
|
# possible to use ERE to easily and quickly get around this limitation. Here, all
|
|
# 3 packages (PKG1, PKG2, and PKG3) will be sought.
