# apt-get build-dep nyancat
Even if we ignore security for a moment I am not a fan of this syntax
as it is too suprising for me.
I don't like it either. :)
I think I would be happier if this would always require a
relative/absolute path rather than just a directory name ala: apt-get
build-dep ./nyancat
(aka: at least one / in the pkgname before a file lookup is attempt.
And a message like those for regex/glob if it matched anything)
Note that this was valid syntax in apt (<< 1.1):
# apt-get build-dep nyancat/unstable
So we might need a stricter rule than "at least one / ...".
Perhaps something like this: the argument must start with "./" or start
with "/" or end with "/" to be considered a directory name?
