Perhaps, but it does match the way dependencies work. It makes a

[email protected].
Why not? We've talked about version syntax that would force an exact
match, but in this case, it could simply be a flag to pkg install.
That would be fine too. Perhaps the exact match case is to start
with pkg:/ instead of adding a flag?
That doesn't feel right to me, but if you can provide arguments for
that,
I'd be happy to consider them.
If I may ask, what do you feel is the issue with pkg:/ ?
I can't see any association between 1 slash and exact match. Also,
suppose I wanted to specify an authority (which requires 2 slashes if my
memory serves) and an exact package match (which would require 1 slash),
what happens then? 3 slashes?
