Comment 6 for bug 1598810

I think we might want to have some strict mode at some point which does no automatic fallback search. Patterns also have regular expressions according to the aptitude manual, but that does not quite match the reality (aptitude install foo always installs exactly foo).

I can image we add a --exact-name option to install that only allows exact matches and does not search for similar names. That's like aptitude's ?exact-name pattern. Or we could do it the other way around and disable it by default for non-interactive use, and introduce a --force-no-exact-match-search-for-it option (and a prompt, well, just combine it into the existing prompt).
