There was a problem hiding this comment.
If a user tries to install a pkgconfig that doesn't exist, the output just says there are no packages to install. This seems a little confusing. Would it be possible to tell the user that the thing they typed wasn't found?

Resolve any providers e.g. 'pkgconfig(foo)' passed for installation to the underlying package in the DB.

Sorted, it how raises the same error as if you attempted to install a package name that doesn't exist. |
