Could you account for the tightened package name spec? It has been |
13 |
updated some time ago [1]: |
14 |
|
15 |
3.1.2 Package Names |
16 |
|
17 |
A package name may contain any of the characters [A-Za-z0-9+_-]. |
18 |
It must not begin with a hyphen or a plus sign, and must not end in |
19 |
a hyphen followed by anything matching the version syntax described |
20 |
in section 3.2. |
