from the zippo docs:
---
Package specifiers are very important in zippo's operation.  The format
of a package specifier is:

     <Name> [<Version>] [(<Type>)]

Here are some examples:

     fileutils
     gcc 2.95.2
     binutils 2.10 (sources)
     zlib (binaries)
---

bash-2.04$ zippo -q 'binutils 2.8.* (sources)'
0 package(s) matched
?
bash-2.04$ zippo -q 'binutils2.8.* (sources)'
binutils 2.8.1 (binaries)
binutils 2.9.5.1 snapshot 20000227 (binaries)
2 package(s) matched
?

from the zippo docs:
--
Package specifiers with spaces should be enclosed in quotes, when
passed to zippo, e.g.

     zippo -q 'gcc 2.95.*' --long-info
---

bash-2.04$ zippo -q 'gcc 2.95.*'
0 package(s) matched

bash-2.04$ zippo -q 'gcc2.95.*'
